We just updated the forum to the latest version. There are some new and different features. Let me know if you are having trouble sorting anything out.

I cannot post my hosted pictures. I get an error "It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image" .. See Labradore Cutting thread in Lapidary Corner.
DUH. Nevermind. I didn't see the new "Attach Feetur". Stupid this morning. more coffee.

The image situation has changed a bit indeed. You can now use GO as your image host so going to imageshack isn't neccesary anymore. At the very moment dimensions will be kept as they are so please keep your images smaller than 700px in width when you upload 'm or the forum will expand beyond your monitors size. We are working on an automatic resizer like Doos had set up for the old version.
Another new feature:
embedded youtube videos
how to?
1. copy the video's url 2. paste in post 3. select the url 4. hit the youtube tag button above the text box like you used to hit the image or quote button. 5. hit submit and voila... youtube video embedded...

Only 3 pics attached at a time??? and they upload backwards which if you are referring to pics or writing little tidbits above them makes it a little more difficult..they have this over on FMF and at first always got you..I would be posting fireldtrip reports and have to upload them all backwards since thats how they will appear and when trying to desribe whats in the pictures you can get you text mixed up with your pics..not as much a problem now as i got used to it over there but still screws with newbies..can anything be done about the 3 attachment limit? also will it be strictly GO uploader or will we be able to use our own..i see Jon mentioned it already..not that it really matters to much but the uploader is much slower on here than my VArockhounder one..just giving feedback..not bitching ..lol..well except about the 3 pic limit..
