I see whatcha mean, Chris. It was fine yesterday when i posted them. I am using a new camera and perhaps i'm not using it properly, i had to down-size the pics to be able to upload them.
Maybe Wolf can tell me what i am doing wrong? How bout it Wolf?
Yesterday they showed up as pics not text.

I am baffled at the moment. Everything has been posting just fine. I will have to look into the user rights and see if something got borked there.

I am truly sorry for the issue.

Make sure you click the insert image icon just below the smilies button in the editor and upload from there.

I just checked user permission and it all looked ok. But I am continuing the check.
