SMF 2 Upgrade

OK, 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:

OK, 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".

Well THAT is the most interesting thing I've seen today! Always nice to learn something new, thanks much ~

Since the forum update spammers have hit my email. Has this happened to anyone else?

Not any more than usual.  I haven't seen an uptick.

Probably a co-oincidence. I've seen an uptick on my other email addresses but not the one tied to my profile here...and that email is as public as emails get. I'd recommend talking to your mail provider or looking into their anti-spam options.

Just did, thanks much. Somehow it makes more sense than it used to. LOL

Ah, OK, is that why the new URL generates a 404 error, and we're back to the original URL, http://www.maschinenkrueger.com/forum/index.php?

I hadn't visited the forum since Friday, so I missed this post.

Looks like we need to upload our avatars again, too?

The link to the forum on the maschinenkruger.com website is still pointing to the /forum2/ URL.

Anyway, the forum theme is sweet, great job 👍

Wow... Looks good AND it works on my 'old' PC [and Windows 7+].  Thanks for all the work you do and keeping this site up and running. [And 'yes', I am b-a-d, for I haven't been here for awhile... Health issues and Family priorities... And now it's working on moving out of state... Someday - Just someday, I'll get something done and 'share']

But, I'm glad I checked in and I like the improved look/feel.

Bill, when you use the button for image insertion, it the pastes the old style square brackets of `` around the link you provide (if you specify width and height they will be included in the syntax)

UI has changed, but not the underlying engine.

I'm still on Windows 7. It was an over-spec'd laptop back in the day :D
