Picture posting again!!!

[Xander]

Hey Guys,
I am having picture posting issues (again). I am sorry about this..
Okay the pics load into the gallery fine.
I can now open the sub window though "go advanced" --> "My Pics" ---> "[Open]" .. But then I do not get the option of doing that neat zoom thing,
I only have the choices "open in gallery", "open in window", "thumbnail only" or the "entire pic".
Have i missed something?

yours in apology (for being a PITA)
Xander

I guess this is what you're trying to do?



To do that, you do use the My Pics/Open option (underneath the smilies) in the message composer. A popup window with your images appears; in this change the Insert tools option (middle of the 3 drop-down lists) to Clickable thumb (new window). You should be looking at something like this:



Then click on the image you want to insert.

Nerds corner: I know the "new window" description in that option isn't very clear, as when you see the zoom tool the the image isn't in a new window. But that's because it's a clever javascript alternative to opening a new window. If you disable Javascript in your browser and then click on one of these images in a post, you will see it in a new window.

I guess i did not make my self clear i do not get the "clickable thumbnail " option.. only the 4 i list above. So I wanted to know how i can configure it to give me this option...

Your example works fine in my browser: it just displays the image in the javascript "zoom" tool.

Have you seem the "zoom" tool working with any images? Does it work with the image of my AT that I posted above?

Yeah it seems to work anytime anyone else posts one.. But i guess this means that it is my system... I did not even think about that possibility.. Ill search though my setting and let you know..

That's really strange!

Are you saying that both of the following work?





I ask bacause the top one is an exact copy of what is in your post (as in, copied and pasted the bbcode from you post into this one)

[Xander]
