Forget the workaround, there are bigger fish to fry here since something went wrong with the board software upgrade and extensive rework. The nagging question that needs an answer is "Why does a straightforward post produce an incorrect image nymber while an edit produces the correct one?" The answer to that question will produce a solution to the problem, and I believe our admins know this. There is obviously a difference between then and now hiding in there somewhere in ST IV The Undiscovered Country.
