This is a Quick Reply.

Adding this as an edit.

[EDIT]
Ok, so you need to add something like [EDIT] before the edited text like I just did so it stands out.

This is a test to place a picture within the text.

http://www.robinsfyi.com/holidays/chris ... ntstar.gif

I copied a picture and pasted it, but the link appears. We will see if when I click submit if the picture is substituted for the link.

[EDIT]
That didn't work. The link stayed.

Sweeeeeet ...

Looks like .jpg images insert. I will try other formats - .gif and .png didn't see to work.

Next up, inserting images from local drive.

I also really like the Edit feature. Can't remember how many times I had a typo I couldn't correcta ... hehehe.

Click here for instructions on how to upload pictures.

I see you learned how to put images in you post, but it is frowned upon, because if the image is outside the forum and if it gets deleted, then the image will no longer be visible in the post, which can make the post unintelligible.

So, if at all possible, upload the image so it will always stay here.

Just trying to be helpful.

Thank you.

I will do that. I am trying to learn my way around. I figure I would do this first before getting into any meaningful posts.

Thanks again Jim. I have spent the last year or so reading as many posts as I can. I feel I know everyone here. Funny.

Hi Zoelra, welcome to the madness.

I should have started the same way as you rather than try to figure it out as I go. I posted a pic about 3 years ago in Rogues Gallery , and if someone clicks on it , it's zoomed up to were they can easily count nose hairs, I still haven't figured out how to go back and shrink it down to a proper size lol

Maybe some day we'll have this all figured out
Beer is the cause and the solution of all my problems.

@getterdone,

Thanks, I have been around for some time, just reading. There is so much information here. Anyway, I figured it was time to start posting based on my experiences.
