Well that's cool! Hard to remember, but cool!

I've got to ask...Why is this way of posting a picture totally and completely different from anything I have ever seen on any other board?

Or for that matter, everything about Free Republic?

Is it to keep the trolls in line? It's the only reason I can think of, because honestly...I'll bet we only get about 1 to 2 out of 10 people participating here, of the ones who would like to, but can't figure it out...

Hard to remember, but...

That's what I neglected to explain with "type it in a notepad file"-- so you can save it to your desktop ( or a folder, if you wish to conserve space ) for later use. I have all kinds of files with links, some graphics, boilerplate text, saved in files like that for handy use.

A minor tip? If you use google's Image Search to locate graphics, it works very well, but has a little quirk-- when you copy the web addy from them, it has a space in the address ( hard to spot, too! ) and if you don't delete or backspace it out, you'll get the nasty little box with the X instead of a picture. Drove me nuts until I finally saw the dang space!
