Since the stupid purge, I will be trying to start another battle report diary. I just need to figure out how to post pics again, so I will be experimenting here.
Ummm actually if anyone knows how to add a picture, could they please help me out? I'll keep trying to figure out in the meantime.

I've only figured out how to link to pictures. You click on "reply" on the right, rather than "quick reply", then you'll see a bunch of controls over the text box. Click on the one that looks like a painting, and you'll be able to input an image address. At the bottom you'll see two tabs: "Preview" and "BBCode". In BBCode you can manually enter images like this: [img src="path.to.image.jpg"]
As far as where to actually host the image, people use various image hosting services, but personally I actually put them all on a hidden page on my blog and grab the links from there.

I just used the image icon on the box. It's on the row on the top. Only works in desktop mode, but you can always try putting [/img] on both ends. That's standard forum code.

Are you suggesting he would fabricate a cow?

I am not suggesting that HE would fabricate a cow... however, there are those who would do such a thing. From what I have read, Welshhoppo seems like a stand up guy who would never consider cow fabrication as a past time. But he might know someone who does... Or, that is a cow contemplating the age old questions, "Why did the big black turkey cross the road?"

It is an actual cow.
Being Welsh, we occasionally have herds of cows wandering the roads around the Gower. I actually pulled up and ate a sandwich with one of the cows.
Nice friendly folk cows.

Ummm, it's nice to see that though the forum is different, that things haven't changed and that inevitably the discussion ends up talking about cows vs turkeys, but I still cannot figure out how to post a darn picture from my google drive. I used the insert image button, and typed in [/img] at the beginning and end of the link of the image, but I got nothing. So far there is a picture of a turkey, a motorcycle with a cow and a cat on this thread, could any of you figuratively hold my hand through the process by which you posted those pictures?
edit; by the way who set up my avatar? It's really cool, though I think I have avatar envy over Welshhoppo's avatar...
