    Can't import an image

    Attempting to import an image to a post.

    The image shows up in the edit box when I import it.
    It even shows up in the edit box when I attempt to edit the post,
    but it does not show up in the post.

    I tried to stick a "Jolly Roger" at the bottom of the first post in
    Only registered and activated users can see links., Click Here To Register...

    As you can see, in the post it just shows up as a link.

    The link above, to your post Famous People with Epilepsy, shows a "Jolly Roger" image at the bottom of that post. I looks to me as if you were successful.

      If I'm logged in I can see the flag, if I'm not logged in I can not see it. Supposed to be that way, guests have limited access.
      Question: Why can't I post links or pictures?
      Question: Why can't I have a signature, avatar, or profile picture?
      Question: What's wrong with my account?

      Answer: You are in the "registered users" user group. This group is very limited in what it can do. This will annoy spammers to no end Just keep posting once you have been registered for 30 days and have made 11 posts your account will be "unlocked".

      It's really easy to put someone on ignore and it's strongly recommended that you do so with people who's posts you don't like.

      Step 1 - log in
      Step 2 - click on the "settings" link
      Step 3 - click on the "edit ignore list" link on the left side of the screen
      Step 4 - type (or paste if you copied and pasted it) the username of the person you want to ignore
      Step 5 - click the "ok" button on the right of the screen

      Easy peasy and will lower your blood pressure. One important note though, this won't hide quoted posts. It's an oversight on the developers part and it's not an easy thing to "fix." So if someone quotes someone you have ignored, you'll see the quote.

      Alternatively when you click on a person's name and view their profile page, underneath their avatar, there is a option that says, "Ignore this person". Click that link and then click the yes button.

        That's odd...

        All I can see on the post is a link:
        pirate.jpg

        Maybe it only can't be seen by the person from whose Miscellaneous Attachment file it is being posted.

        Then again... I couldn't see it after I logged out either!

        I can only see it in my Miscellaneous Attachment file if I click on "Show Thumbnail."
        (That's probably standard operation.)

        Then again, maybe moderators and head honchos have access to a function that mere peons (like me) don't. This shot in the dark assumes that other regular posters can't see it either.

        Something to do with my computer's security settings maybe?
        But if that's the case, why can I see it when I am in edit mode?

        This is why I went into Software Quality Assurance!

          My test account, with the same permissions as you sees it as pirate.jpg as well. I will investigate and see if I can resolve this.

            I see only the link in your post, but I was able to transfer the image by going to the link in your post and right-clicking on it, selecting Copy, and coming here to this message window and doing Ctrl+V for Paste.

                  This should be fixed now. Let me know if you still don't see it Dave.
