I'm sure I'll be corrected if wrong, but I seriously doubt that the images are converted from UUE, BASE64, etc., then thumbnailed, and displayed in real time for every browser request. That would be a huge processing load on the server.

As I've mentioned several times in this discussion thread, we provide realtime access to Usenet newsgroups, so your comment about saving content to a database is incorrect.

Usenet services do require a lot of servers, bandwidth, processing capacity, etc., so it's not a casual undertaking. You're correct on that point.

We've been providing Usenet services to retail and commercial customers for the past 12 years, so we've had the benefit of being able to gradually grow our infrastructure (hardware, bandwidth, etc.) along with our customer base.

That's one of the nice advantages of our service... a webmaster could add newsgroup access to their website, without having to locally operate a hardware/software infrastructure that's taken us 12 years to establish.
