When it comes to HTML, I always drag it over to FR and through it up under someone's thread and preview it. If it is all weird, I'm the only one that knows, and get about fixxing it. Then I can drag my story around on "the clipboard" (in the copy function) to do whatever with it...like posting a new thread etc.

Not being a computer, or graphics hot shot, I stick with K.I.S.S.!

Is that "the trick" you graphics, and thread masters use???Quick! gimme a flashlight so I quit stumbing around here, chasing ghosts....

I practice the same way you do.. I go to an OLD thread usually of mine..but Billie for one does her previewing in a way I have yet been able to master. With notepad & saving text in HTML format

The larger threads are very complex & much more prone to mess ups due to the nature of the beast. My first big thread I learned there was a BIG defense in posting a thread & a post at an existing thread.

I can have something preview great in a post preview but when I go to post a thread it is chaos..... one little center, block quote, p, br out of place. sometimes easy to find & sometimes not! HTML is always unforgiving but seems to double the terror in a thread.

I now & then make the mistake of practicing & forgetting to put my name on it.. IF you perchance post it, can quickly get mods to pull BUT you have someone with a strange post in their pings!

I do all my graphics in preview like that,correct, recorrect.....If I like it I post it..or save it to notebook file for later..I am always changing, tweaking what I thought was great the first time I finished it though! I am 3 months into posting graphics and doing frames(tables)...so I am no expert.
