Any chance we could do away with the thumbnails and get the real pics back? Some people seem to be able to do them real size, but I don't think anyone is interested in the thumbnails!

Upload to a service like photobucket, then copy the IMG code here.
How do you upload to photobucket from your camera? My camera loads to windows photo gallery....THEN...I would have to go and upload them to photobucket.....I really hate the extra steps...

I had it figured out, but now it is not working again.
I don't see any need for thumbnails on this site. We all want real pics. Don't we?

I disagree with you. Who cares about arguments? That shouldn't be a concerned factored in. I know of several threads I'd like to fix up but no longer can.

Ok, maybe I should say rude comments.... not arguments. I've seen peeps say something, and then edit it and say they didn't say it.
Or during a debate (not arguement) they realize their original theory wasn't correct... so they change it.
Not too many other forums allow you and eternity of edit power. Just an hour oh so is all I need to fix my big o load of typos IMO... and of course it's only MO.

Yeah, it's only my opinion as well, but I really don't see how changing your debate is harmful to this board. It makes one look like an A-hole and it angers the people who are debating with you. At the end of the day, when a new hobbyist is looking through the boards, that aspect really isn't going to matter. It's easy to frame people for editing their content. All you have to do is quote them and change the quoted content. This can be done within the time-frame of an hour. I just don't believe that cutting down our time to edit things helps to prevent much of anything at all.

I would not ever do that. If someone wants to be a dog and change what they said... that's one thing. ME changing their words.... very not cool and poor forum etiquette.
You not being able to change a post from a week ago.... also not harmful to the boards.

Pez. taking back what you said in a discussion here makes the discussion worthless as the reader may not be able to follow the argument.
Changing your words, other than spelling, = UNCOOL IMO.

I understand what you mean. I also understand that quoting (in order to ensure that the argument isn't muffled) is also not going to help. On the other hand, I can't accept that this is even an issue.

If you are addressing me, the original poster asked a question and I started a discussion on the fix. Besides isn't the dislike of thumbnails an Upgrade suggestions /or thing that needs fixing?

I'm not going to go back and read thru 9 pages to see if this has been covered, but here's my question.....
I still cannot start a "new" thread, and I still cannot find any of my old threads (that I started). I understand that I can download firefox (which I did at work), but does this mean that everyone (like me) who operate on IE can no longer start threads???? I took an extended break, hoping this would get fixed, but patience is running thin (as this should be obvious from all the others who can still not post).
