[Lawreston]

Just Testing.

[alaskaflyer]

Oh, boy, now you've done it!

 

[ptucker]

This is a test, this is only a test. beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

 

[ScottM]

Roger, wilco, I will ignore this. I have been ignoring a thread on the red board for time, but I think I can handle the extra work load and ignore threads here too!

 

[ScottM]

How do I DELETE this sucker?????

You can't. Once we reply to the thread starter it will always be here. Most you can do is erase the text in the message

DARN IT! I was supposed to be ignoring this thread. DOH! I'll try again.

 

[Lawreston]

Funny response! That explains it. What I was trying to TEST is how some images get placed in the DATA area, rather than a thumbnail.

??????????????????????????

 

[KennyFlys]

Ignore what?

 

[Frank Browne]

Do not adjust your set...WE are in control.

 

[JasonCT]

So, this thread will never go away...And Scott will just keep adding posts to his count

What do you mean by that

 

[ScottM]

Oh shoot, darn it I forgot I was ignoring this thread

 

[JasonCT]

What do you mean by that

Nothing just making an observation in a themeless thread

 

[JasonCT]

I like the new Avatar by the way!

You are amazing!

How do you do it and still keep your post count below 10,000?

I aim to please and I don't want Harley to think I am not ignoring his thread, I might even answer his question too.

 

[ScottM]

Thanks. Saw that as a bumper sticker and a Folk Music thingy and thought it quite clever. Thank the Ladies Banjo Society of California for the pic.

 

[ScottM]

I'm working on it. One post at a time!

 

[ScottM]

??????????????????????????

Harley you bracket the URL of the image between image tags. and image tag is started by having IMG in square brackets, at the end of the URL you put /IMG in square brackets.

 

[ScottM]

I slow down when I travel.

 

[ScottM]

Phew! I gotta rest

 

[JasonCT]

Wow, that took a lot out of me to read Scott!
Get yourself a cup of coffee and come back to us!

It may be time for some Sominex rather that coffee!

 

[Lawreston]

Duh! Let's see if I get it.

When it asks for a URL my image is from my Pictures files(N7872G 032207), but it only comes up as a thumbnail as shown. Is that normal, as opposed to a larger image in the Message area?

 

[ScottM]

Duh! Let's see if I get it.

Don't upload the image at all. Just enter the URL in the text area between the IMG tags or you can click on the

button and just enter the URL there. That will add the tags automatically.

 

[KennyFlys]

Are you trying to post one of these?

 

[ScottM]

Are you trying to post one of these?

I think he is but I am ignoring this thread so I cannot respond

 

[Greebo]

Obviously the OP wanted this thread deleted, so...I'll go ahead and delete it.

Oh but then you wont know why the thread vanished.

Ok I'll leave this thread here to explain why this thread was deleted.


ER..wait..

 

[Lawreston]

And I still can't get a photo to post in the message area, rather than as the usual thumbnail practice.

[Greebo]

Use the IMG tag.

You need to have a web hosting provider who will let you link images from your site tho. Its the button that looks like

Or if you're doing it manually:

[IMG]http://home.comcast.net/%7Egreebo/12_weeks_ball2.JPG[/IMG]

yields

IMG http://humor.beecy.net/politics/bushisms/africa/bush-africa.jpg /IMG

that IMG and /IMG tag should each be bracketed [ ]

Do that in the text area and NOT after hitting the Manage Attachment button and it will work.

 

[Greebo]

And on a completely related note...isn't that a cute puppy???

She's coming up on a year and a half now but we're such saps - we still think of her as that ball of fluffy cuteness...

[Greebo]

Ok now *I* can't figure out how you pulled off blank posts!

 

[Lawreston]

Yup; cute puppy. My ISP, suscom-maine.net, is a comcast property; the image icon is there, but I still come up with a blank result.

 

[Lawreston]

Ok now *I* can't figure out how you pulled off blank posts!

It's cuz I is 'tupid.

 

[Greebo]

What is the URL of the image you are trying to post?

 

[Lawreston]

What is the URL of the image you are trying to post?

Aha! I just talked to Comcast(way across the country from our local ISP). I'm not set up to "do it" at this point. But I will be.
Now, if you'd like to kill this thread(not the puppy), feel free to do so.
