Re: forum very difficult to use

There are no pictures in old threads. They didn\'t get imported with the new format. New picture show up because they have to be linked from a photohosting site like Photobucket.

Which ones can\'t you see, Even the new ones like this?

That\\\\\\\'s funny Claude. I can\\\\\\\'t see the bark house unless I go into the living room and look at it!

And I cannot access either image.

At least the links in Claude\'s post are working.

Re: forum very difficult to use

I\'m posting pix into draft threads from Photobucket (cropped and resized) without a hitch.
Copy the IMG code. Then paste into the text. Don\'t use the image link icons or that\'s what the reader will see in the post and they have to LC on that to see the image.

Re: forum very difficult to use

Hi, Lar.
I also use a Mac. It takes me only one additional click to see the photos. I just right-click on the thumbnail and the choose Open In a New Window from the drop-down menu. BTW, this only takes one click if you hold down the right click, then slide the mouse to the first item in the menu which is the Open In a New Window. When finished looking, I just close that new window. The photos are smaller in some cases because the person showing the photos has made them smaller. I normally make my photos 580 pixels high by 780 pixels wide, or less, after cropping. Easy enough to do in Preview. Once you open someones photo in a new window, to make it larger, just click [Command+] a couple times.

Re: forum very difficult to use

Well, It seems to be getting better to me. Either that or I\'m figuring out its quirks.Priorities to me would be to be able to see the pics with one click after reading the post. Currently it just takes too many steps and the little pictures are too small. Every once in awhile it works great .. is this because of how the poster posted the picture? Maybe using photo bucket or something? Apple MAC user. Latest software. Lar
