GroupServer has far better image handling, thanks to Steven Clift,
e-Democracy.org,
  http://e-democracy.org/
and Advanced Business Education Limited.

Images, such as the one below, are now displayed on a Web page, rather than
being treated like any other file. The page shows a scaled  image, so you can
look at it without having to download the full image, which can be quite large.
The image-page also links to the other images in a topic, so you can view, say,
the evolution of an interface from design to implementation.

The image-page is linked to from email messages, the view of the post on the
Web, and from file searches
  http://groupserver.org/s/index.html?t=0&f=1
The view of a post also has a thumbnail of the image to the left of the link to
the image page.

The images are resized by the Python Imaging Library (PIL)

Richard did the hard-yards integrating PIL with GroupServer, with what is our
first component to only rely on Zope 3. The same code that resizes the images
that are posted to groups also resizes the peoples profile images, so the
uploading code can be far more tolerant of oddly sized profile-images.
