Knock off the "bitchin"
You should have remembered "Be careful what you wish for".
Now you have made things "worse" for all of us.

All I was trying to do was point out that several of us wanted the image icon added early on, and most of us were NOT having any problems posting images with it, so as a result were going to punish the many to please the few.
That is all I was pointing out.../DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/plain.gif" border=0>

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their forum.

OH! WOW! The spell-check is working ;) Thanks Shad

Now lets see what happens when I drag an image from my gold space to here in the quick reply entry box.

http://1stclass.mylargescale.com/bobgrosh/chat/video/rubysprings_video_1.jpg

OK, it put the text from the address here as plain text, not underlined or anything

I'll do it again and add the img tags around it manually.



There is no preview button so I'll just submit it.

Cross your fingers.

Well I'll be danged!
It worked. It even converted the plain text in the picture URL to a link to the picture.

Next I'll try to us the reply instead of the quick reply.

First, I drag the little icon in the address line of my picture to here.
http://1stclass.mylargescale.com/bobgrosh/chat/video/rubysprings_video_1.jpg

OK,that looks the same as in the quick reply.

Now do it again and add IMG tags manually.



Now I'll try a preview.
...
The preview worked, but all the lines of text were running together. (I had each sentence typed on a second line.

Spell-check worked here too.
SO. I'll hit submit and prey.

Gary, the slash in in the wrong place on the closing tag.. it needs to be /img with the brackets instead.

Now I hit the quote button on the top line of the last post.

Does this work?

Well preview is really screwed up. The gray quoted area has one long run on sentence, with the picture in the middle of the sentence. And the whole window is about twice the width of my screen, I have to a horizontal scroll to see it all.

I'd say the preview is useless, It gives me no idea at all what the post will look like.

All right, other than preview not showing what the post will look like, so far everything works.
Now I'll submit this short little post and try to edit it.

Well, at least it didn't crash the system.

But, the little note at the bottom of the post informing people of the edit is missing.

Next I'll delete this post and re-add it....

Well there isn't any delete button, so, let's see if I can recreate an earlier post.
Here is one on making my canopy road.











Preview looked OK except for a missing blank line prior to the pictures, AND the thin white lines between each picture.
Spell-check still works.:D" border=0>" border=0>
With fingers crossed, I press "SUBMIT"

Ally at Agrarama in Tifton Ga






MGMRC Prototype Trains
at Agrarama



WELCOME TO THE GEORGIA AGRIRAMA!



 



Our trip to the train show in Perry Ga



On the way t o Perry we just  had to stop in Tifton. Ga



We found this old station.








Almost a ghost town. So we waited.








Finally, this character dressed like Emmett showed up.



Ally talked to him for half an hour.








Finally she got her new friend to pose with him.







With a little more charm, she got him to let her in the cab...



... and blow the whistle.








Then she asked if she could drive the train.







Well Gosh, I never even got to blow the whistle.
