I'm in a rush so I'll say this briefly: try to switch asap. Yahoo groups have gotten so bad that Mark (the head of ) has said he may have to stop transferring groups soon because yahoo groups has become so dysfunctional that he may not be able to do more transfers at some point. Groups.io is so much better that there's no comparison. You may not get every single feature you want but you'll get many others that are better, and you will get 100% responsiveness from support whereas in yahoo groups it's zero. The transfer is seamless and in the odd case that anything goes wrong, Mark is extremely responsive and fixes stuff nearly immediately. The polar opposite of yahoo groups. I would just do it, and do it soon before it's too late!

I am sure the issues I am about to ask about have been dealt with before so I hope you won't mind my asking - I am seriously going to have to transfer to Group.io - I have been putting the decision off hoping that Yahoo will get their act together but it does not seem they are going to do so.? I am very nervous about the change so could you reassure me that the transfer is possible given the problems with Yahoo - I would like the Database and Photos active in the new group and are the members transferred easily please?? Currently on one of my groups Photos are not active - does this work with the transfer or not - I thought I saw one message on here to say it was not.? Once the transfer is made does that close down the Yahoo group or is it still available and nothing has changed?
I hope you won't mind my asking - it is a big decision for me having been with Yahoo for some 16 years.
