    Morning,

    I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but both the URL and "" tags from photobucket only render a link to be followed and don't resolve to an image in the thread...

    "http://s297.photobucket.com/albums/mm235/grubbsj/Marine%20Tank/125g/?action=view&current=DSC00513.jpg"

    "[IMG]http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm235/grubbsj/Marine%20Tank/125g/DSC00513.jpg"

    Should I do this differently?

    Thank you for all your efforts...

    Joe

    Joe the 2nd one is almost correct... just remove the quotations.
    All you need is the URL to the image (the address directly to the jpg, gif, etc) - NOT the mouseover code. Then hit [​IMG] and put the URL in there.

    Ok, got it. I must have a setting turned on in IE so that only the link to the image and not the image itself is displayed.

    Thank you.

    Missionsix66, In your reply, I get only a link to click, not a image (until I follow the link)... It sounds like the issue is likely a sitting in IE on my end....

    Hi Matt

    I'm guessing that you did some more upgrades over the w/e

    Very, very minor complaint;)

    When you log on to the site and it displays the list of recent threads it no longer shows how many pages are in a thread and therefore doesn't give the option of going straight to a certain page.
    If you click on New Posts though, the pages (1,2,3...last) are listed again.:confused:

    Cheers mate.
    All your work is much appreciated.

    Just to be picky there are two log in boxes on the start up screen;D


    And, out of curiosity I now appear to have a rep power. Is this related to karma?
