How do we post pictures now?

I must be missing something? It has the Other Media button, but it’s not the function as the previous iteration. Anyone?

I just copied & pasted this photo, citing a URL is no longer needed. When you paste your image, a settings icon (gear) shows up on the upper right corner of the image, showing 3 editing options. Not quite sure how they work, but I’ll have to experiment later. Just being able to paste images is enough for me now 👏

As it was before, at least the same way I did it.

That would seem to imply that avsim is going to host the images…?

Might get expensive, be interesting to see if that remains enabled.

Fun Fact: One of Forum Chief's granddaughters followed in his footsteps and was a character in the BBC TV show "Life on Mars". Her name was Princess Test Card Girl.

I just asked that of the site owner! I await his reply!

Rut Row! I also emailed our site tech and I now see him on the site! This feature may be going bye-bye now!

I was going to post earlier that I was no longer able to copy and post pictures today. Yesterday, I was able to. But there is no function for this. In the prior iteration of the forum in the Other Media box below you could post the URL for the picture you wanted to post, which was separate from the link function.

@Mike A OK, thanks for the clarification on that! Just curious....Were you right-clicking on a picture to
copy, then post or were you copying the image's address and posting that? Basically posting the
image's URL.

Copying the Link address and pasting will work if you are copying a picture outside of the forums,
like from Google.

So we just need to paste the image link ? No need for [img] tags ?
