No problems reading them where? In your email, or on the group page?

You must be logged in to view photos and files.

You may also be attempting to look at links to the 2nd Homebrew_PCBs
list. You must be a member of it and logged in to view files and
photos there, too.

Ah... there is another possibility. Yahoogroups prevents stealing
bandwidth from their Photos and Files section by giving you a
temporary link to the files when you click on them. So if someone does
a copy and paste of the link to the photo or file, it is no good in
about a half hour. Ever been looking at photos or files in a folder,
and halfway through it starts giving you file missing errors? When you
are back in the folder, hit Reload on your browser and you can view
the photos and files again.

Better to link to the folder, not the individual photos or files for
this reason.
