    Image Uploads

    Seems we have a couple of issues with image uploads. I'm trying to find the problems, nothing obvious has been found in the control panel for this place, but it has 36 million settings.

    In the meantime, photobucket seems a good place to park stuff to link to. I just created an account, it's free, and painless. Images stored there and linked to here seem to display properly.

    Comments/suggestions welcome.
    QAnon / GOP Republicans mentally lack the necessary intelligence to even tell a decent lie (Ex: A cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring and conspired against former President Dotard dRUMPf during his term in office... Jewish space lasers, etc.). What in the hell makes anyone believe these melon heads can actually govern?

    Seth Morganstern has distributed over 10,000 crayons to underprivileged children in just the past year, all paid for out of his own pocket! The man never ceases to amaze me.

    Work-around to prevent double images

    *** NOTE: This does not work well for all browsers! IE in particular, has issues with the images after the attachment (the resource) is removed.

    Awkward, but it works.

    You'll need to use the Advanced editor. Using the image icon, and the Basic Uploader, upload your image as usual. Doesn't matter if it's remote or on your machine.

    Next, scroll down and look for the Manage Attachments button and click to open another window:





    At the bottom of the new window, the attachment (the image you uploaded) will be located in the left of the frame. Hover over it, and use the "X" to delete the attachment. DO NOT delete files in the top frame (previously uploaded files). Use the "X" on that window to close it (don't use the "Done" button at the lower right of the window), and you're done.

    Having already placed the image object in the "Your Message" editor window, it will still show in your post, but without the duplicate image showing the attachment.

    I used that method to post a picture of my Pontiac here: https://forums.hamisland.net/showthr...l=1#post594619

    and on the graphic of the Manage Attachments button in this post.

    Like I said, awkward. No warranty implied!

    It does work, Luke.

    I just cleaned up my Guatemala posts. The duplication is gone.
