Thanks! People maybe have bigger screens now or not, but I know for me, it fills the message window a little better without going overboard. Hopefully it doesn't make a dent in your bandwidth. I see the size has been changed in the text on the files and folders in the profile, but be sure to change it in the instructions in the popup window for the uploader from messages. On a sidenote, no biggie, but I've been seeing dudes once in a while use the wrong code within their messages. Like a few times in the last couple of weeks It's pretty clear in the screen. I don't know what else you can do.
 ^ They've been using the one meant for reviews. It looks incredibly clear to me which one to use. [Link] |

I could get fancy and write some to insert the code into their posts automatically. I decided not to do this back when the image uploader was first written because Internet Explorer wasn't very standards-compliant at the time. I'll take a look at it again for the single-image uploader. [Link] |

I just need to modernize it. Modern browsers make it much easier to pass messages between active windows. That would be the best way to deal with the embedding of images into posts. [Link] |

Still see it happen from time to time. Do other mods see this? Seems like I fix a couple / few a week.

I still see it happening fairly often. I can't see how it could be made more clear though.

Steph has asked me to address this. The part I'm having a hard time figuring out is where to insert the image forum code into the post. I can insert it where the cursor is, or at the end of the post. Which would be best?

Hmm. I'd say put it where the cursor is. Others might disagree though. I could see reasons for both. [Link] |

I'd have it insert where the cursor is. [Link] |

+1 For the cursor, personally that's where I'd prefer it if I was new here. [Link] |

That wasn't too bad. Tested it in IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari. That should cover most browsers.
 When you click the link the IMG= code is inserted at the cursor location in the post. Edited by - Drew Black on 10/28/2012 10:36:53 AM [Link] |

Drew, in a different but related point, is it possible to similarly 'insert at the cursor' with the URL link builder thingy ? The way it works now, the newly-created URL link is appended to the end of the text, regardless of where the cursor is positioned. Or maybe I'm just being too picky. [Link] |

Cool! Let's hope people actually use it properly! :) edit: maybe the "Click Here to Add This to Your Forum Post" sentence should be bolder, or in a larger font, or a different colour, or something. You know, so it really pops at the user. So they wouldn't dream of clicking on anything else, unless they're doing something complicated like a review or whatever.
