It took me forever to figure out how to post pictures in the last system. I'm guessing I'll figure it out here in a little longer than forever.

You can just drag and drop the image into the quick reply box and if there is no link block on the image, it will appear when you post.

Hey it works!!!! Very cool. Don't know how much application there will be for it, but good to know we can do that!!!!

Just be sure you grab the right image if you just by happenstance, have a porn site open.


I'm just sayin`....

Very good point though I visit porn sites pretty infrequently.

**Noted she did not say "Never"**

hehe

I dunno....this pic made me laugh. Have a good day folks.

Would have been even funnier had it been a wedgy!

Funny both ways, yes

Be sure to use a valid email address when changing some personal information for your account. I just did and used an old email I forgot I deleted. The software won't allow you to do anything until you have confirmed your email, and it locks you out.

I had to recreate the email account to get back in!

Okay this is an experiment. I am typing this on Word and will include a photo. And then copy and paste to see if the photo transfers too. Here's the photo--the cabin at Cowles where we spend some time most summers:
Now the paste.. . . . .

Back to typing in the reply box now. The text transferred but for the photo I got an error message that it didn't match the file extension? But I can drag and drop the photo off my computer:

View attachment 31307 And you know what? You can do it right off your computer too!!! I just dragged and dropped this right out of my personal photo files. This is great!!!
You don't have to put your photos in Photobucket or some such and then use the URL to move them here.

Never thought to try and drag and drop from the hard drive.....Good catch!

However, the photo of the Arabian I posted was one I had saved from the internet. It dragged and dropped easily. But when I tried to drag and drop a personal photo--no luck. That might need some additional research.

 

[Darkwind]

When posting videos/media there is a dedicated icon for that as opposed to linking it as a URL like the old format did for sites and vids.

Nice catch!

You may have to embed the photo from the hard drive instead of the word processor. There are formatting issues with word processors and how they handle images that may not translate well into a drag and drop...I was just thinking about seeing if I could get a Visio project to transfer over, but this might not be the right place to try....

 

[Darkwind]

Nope....

And it won't allow Me to attach it as a file because it does not recognize the file extension. I wonder what the acceptable file extensions are?

On this day in history, August 21, 1897, Oldsmobile was founded by Ransom E Olds and, within a short time, was into mass production building more than 400 cars per year. Among the oldest automobile companies in the world--Daimler and Puegeot preceded it--General Motors took it over in 1908 and produced 35.2 million cars until the brand was finally phased out in April, 2004, when the last Oldsmobile Alero rolled off the assembly line.
Chances are you or someone in your family owned an Oldsmobile at some time. It probably has been featured in more advertisements, in more movies, and in more songs that any other automobile ever made except possibly the Chevy.



The first Oldsmobile - 1897

The last Oldsmobile, the 2004 Alero

 

[Pogo]

Never had an Olds. Had a Pontiac, a couple of Buicks (access to them), a Ford, a Chevy (1950) five Dodges, three Plymouths, two Volvos best forgotten except one was a P1800, a Fiat, a Toyota, a Honda, a MINI and two Saturns. The rest is kind of a blur.

Well congratulate me, I have just passed an advanced language class

That is, I now know the distinction between "Hey I'm over here" and "help, I'm stuck in a tree" in the Cat language. (The latter has kind of a slow mournful glide)

Yup. When I walked outside and heard him but didn't see him I already knew.

This time though he was right there by the back of the house and only about 15 feet up. I kept telling him "Down!" and he looked like he understands that command but just didn't have the balls to do it. Oh wait, he's fixed, so he doesn't.

No biggie, I still have my pole-and-basket apparatus and I went round the corner to firm it up and get ready. When I went back to the tree he was gone. Nowhere to be seen. Called him for a while, no response. Then I turn back to the door and he's sitting there on the ground, just lazing. Doesn't seem to be injured at all, so he somehow found his way down while I wasn't looking.

I've been thinking of selling the bike though, as I haven't used it. That will need the basket to be reattached.

And the neighbor's border collie came over - haven't seen him in a long time. I asked him, "go find Hobbes!". As before he was no help at all.

Always an adventure...

 

[Ernie S.]

Had an Olds 88 wagon with a 394 that I built up. It would do a buck forty and pass anything but a gas pump. I about had to fill it up on my way home from the gas station.

The Masters have not yet divulged that.
I'm thinking "Catatonian"? Or is that too Feline-esque?

What's a "porn site"???

I'm sure I have no idea. EXCEPT, I was searching for something at work one time when I was still working in a claims office and I must have clicked on a wrong link or something among the options offered by my browser. . . .and the porn pics appeared on my screen--a slide show of epic proportions, one after of the other in rapid succession, full screen, full color. There was nothing I could do to stop them--couldn't click off the site or anything. Finally just turned off the computer at the switch. I was terrified somebody would come in during all that.
