My tool icons that used to be just above the reply box, have vanished? It didn't really bother me until now, but there are certain things that i need the tools for. Also, the reply box is still really small? Is anybody else having the same problems?

The poster was good though!

Chris has mentioned that he intends to update the text editor in the reply box. I suspect that he is in the process of doing this as we speak.

and remember N4, and everyone else, if you're after submitting some artwork for the competition you can still do so while the links have gone by using the following BB code in your reply... [img]paste the url address for your picture here[/img] ...Remember, that the address for your picture has to be from an image hosting site and has to be inserted inbetween [img][/img] with NO spaces.

@Snorks. I'm not quite sure how that would work? If i do it that way, it will just show up on the thread has a link (text) and not an image?

@necronom 4; Just use Tinypic.com to upload your videos to. They provide the URL so no need to even use a link from here, just cut and paste directly from that site. :) [IMG]http://i47.tinypic.com/2dlk8x3.jpg[/IMG] ^See, it works. :D

N4, all the pic link did in the reply box was add [img] and [/img] to the beginning and end of the pictures url, typing it yourself does the exact same thing, I do it all the time with my posts. It will not display it as a link, that is achieved using different BB code - [url=][/url]. It will work, but if for some reason it doesn't I will moderate the post for you so that it displays your image.

@Snorks. I tryed that yesterday with ncc, he was trying to show me how to do it but only the link (in text,) was being sent, no image. I can copy the URL from the image and paste it on this site, but like i said, it only shows as a text link, no image. I think i may just wait until the editor interface thingy has been sorted out. Thanx. @Svanya. Haha, brilliant, wish i had teeth like that.

N4, I understand your reluctance but it does work, I will show you. Here is the address to the image that Svanya has just posted... http://i47.tinypic.com/2dlk8x3.jpg Now using [img][/img] before and after that address causes this to happen... [img]http://i47.tinypic.com/2dlk8x3.jpg[/img] No link whatsoever, that is achieved, as I mentioned earlier using different BB code.

@Snorks. So, if the above pic was my pic, with that URL, i would have to edit the text so it looks like this: http://[img]i47.tinypic.com/2dlk8x3[/img].jpg ? Is that right?

No N4, as mentioned, [img] and [/img] are placed before and after the whole address, like this... beginning would be... [img]http blah blah blah, the end would be... jpg[/img] Do you follow now?

I'll keep an eye out for your post in the competition thread, if for some reason your image does not display I will edit your posts so that it does N4.

Just post the url and ask the staff to make it clickeable.. While the icons come back I guess.

Got it back working now. The editor we're using currently isn't spectacular. So I am working on installing a new type. But this issue is fixed for now.
