Last post by theBaron - Apr 06, 2023 07:44 PMOK, that specific link presents the linked image, which is what I expected. No additional steps required. That would be my preference, but you should choose whatever works best for you. I like "fewest clicks".

Last post by theBaron - Apr 06, 2023 07:42 PMOK, I followed your link in the post before that last one, and it took me to ImageShack, to the page with the image.
I clicked the Get Links/Sizes button, and in the dialog box that opened, for Types, I clicked the dropdown and selected Forums. That gave me a link with URL tags, which is the same format that Postimage presents for "Hotlinks for forums", so I copied that and pasted it here:

As I recall, on the old site there were before and after thingie dingies to get a picture to load. But I never mastered Fortran, and all computer technogizmology eludes me, limiting me pretty much to "User Only" status. LOL

Bill, how do you post photos? I use a photo hosting site (Postimage), which provides me a link. I just paste that link into the body of a post, like this one:
That's about as simple as I can imagine, but I know other people use other methods, including the Insert Image tool that is visible in this editor. But that's too many clicks for my taste.

Last post by Bill Collier - Apr 03, 2023 09:01 PMTerrific work, guys. This type of techno wizardry is about 117 levels above my paygrade. :) I do know it's several steps easier to post photos/links from my ImageShack account, and noted the throwback/much beloved background upgrade over the weekend. I'm so delighted to be back on this forum.

Ah, OK, is that what it is? I see what looks like the old forum theme, for the page background, the banner/header, etc.

sure thing Kevin.
fonts are a little whacked. the tricky thing nowadays is balancing browser vs mobile vs responsive layout.
