Quite a back, I had reported a very, very annoying 'bug' about this otherwise very-good-fig-forum. It had something to do with loosing track of 'unread' posts. Jon had contacted, his host-server for help and the answer was to open a 'new' window. I still do not know how to to that, even though I find that answer as not-acceptable. Sooo, my nightmare continues.
Heck, maybe we should try to bring back some of those jobs lost to overseas, back home here in the good USofA...

Uploading pics is a very different issue. There is a file size (1 MB) limit on the pic/file being uploaded; just read carefully the specific instructions that follow, once one 'hits' that magic ' Manage Attachments ' button. For pics, it is just a 're-size' task.

If anyone needs to host pictures, I can provide an account.

This is just a picture management test Test failed "Exceeded storage limit". I tried to post the same thumbnails reduced in size that have been posted here before at i get the message that it exceeds storage limit . The thumnail were reduced in size and posted to this forum they average 932kb under a meg and worked here recently. Something is wrong with that part of forum. I still get the yellow folders though when there is a new post and they go away properly after i read them and reappear when someone post a new post. These machines sure can be a pain i must say.

An account (e.g., PhotoBucket) is NOT needed when posting pics here (it does on the GW/FF). Here (F4F/FF), no server is required; pics can be directly uploaded from one's PC (just watch the size limit). Also, if one already does happen to have an old pic on an existing account (like PB or similar), all one needs is do is to 'point' that server location by a copy/paste of the IMAGE CODE. Which different from how GW/FF works; it needs to copy/paste the HTML CODE (confused?!, I bear with you).
For the sake of less confusion, I will refrain from explaining of how one can 'write' own's code. I remember pulling off some of my few remaining precious hair still on my head, FIGuring just doing that....

OK, you guys uploaded too much GOOD crap, and filled up the server space. I have been away from my computer for a couple days, and just catching up. Should be good now.
