Testing image

I didn't know about this. I tend to use the hyperlink text from Imgur or the insert icon View attachment 508407 rather than Attach files because I could not figure out how to get the attachments to insert where I want.

Interesting. I had been using that picture icon initially. However it stopped being active on my screen. I still have the icon but it's dead now. That forced me to find another way.

Are there guys still messing with the new software installation? I assumed that was likely why these functions were changing. Now I am beginning to wonder

I never used taptalk but I remember when I was telling you that the post-image site was easy/ no problem. Welp... lol. Used to be anyway and likely the recent issue is either on my end or with RCC.

It is interesting that you don't have that option. I have no idea what is going on nor do I know who should or shouldn't have that feature. I think it would be stupid for only members to have it.

I see it!

From what I remember you could only post pics directly on the forum if you were a paid member. Everyone always got around that using host sites and taptalk. I guess now I need to stop slacking and update my threads thanks for the help everyone!!!

 

[JatoTheRipper]

It makes sense. Hosting photos consumes a lot more storage and costs a website money. A membership would offset this cost. Using an image host is an easy way to circumvent this.

I'm glad to see you figured it out. Excited to see your photos again!

I see the picture following "test via forum link"

The first one for "via direct link" I just see the address link text to a file

I really appreciate your reply here. That's how it came up for me as well but I wasn't sure how it came out on the other side of the computer lol. Thank you for the confirmation. @AnimalHippie was able to post his recent images via direct link so.. still not sure what's up. But at least it appears I'm back in business.. for now.

 

[JatoTheRipper]

Same for me. The first is a hyperlink and the second is an image.

I'll bet that if I had a PC that wasn't forged in the 1700's by Benjamin Franklin out of wooden planks and steel, that I wouldn't have the issues that I do.

I'd disagree. If a computer is involved, there are sure to be bugs and glitches!

Posting a url, even one that is directly to an image such as a .jpg, will create a hyperlink. It won't turn it into a photo. See below.

EDIT: I was proven wrong. No idea why that happened.

 

[JatoTheRipper]

Pasting your image link below:

https://i.postimg.cc/PfCCSyfY/IMG-0012.jpg

EDIT: That turned the link into a simple hyperlink as expected. On postimage, you want to select the "Thumbnail for forums:" or "Hotlink for forums" and paste that link.

Hotlink for forums:

Ah... I think I'm reaching that age where I need the drool wiped from my chin and someone to say "let's get you back to bed"... sigh.

Thank you, Jato. Compared to me you're an IT tech-wizard.

No problem. Sometimes being a nerd, or is that geek, pays off.
