Sure wouldn't leave the forum for that, but like Barb said you can't please everyone all the time.

Charlie, the picture process confused me at first, too - it's just enough different at the first steps to confuse us. Hit Reply, then "Go Advanced". From there you can type your text, and when you're ready to add a picture scroll down to the "Additional Options" box, and in the middle, "Manage Attachments". The box that comes up is the major difference - if the picture you want to add has been previously uploaded to CHR the picture file name should be in one of the "question mark boxes" and you can just drag it to the "Attachments" area immediately below to attach it to your message, but if not then you need to find the file in your folders. Look to the upper right and click "Add Files" which brings up a new, smaller box and at the bottom of that box click "Select Files". Now you just find your Pictures folder, find the file you want to add, and click it to add to the list, then at the bottom of that small box click "Upload Files" and you're done. One new feature that I really like is in that "Attachments" box, lower right where it says "Insert Inline". That lets you insert pictures in your text stream anywhere you want, just by positioning your cursor in that spot with each item attached. If you preview the post you can also go back and move them around, unlike the old way where they all were at the bottom of the post, regardless. Here's a picture that was on my desktop from another time.
