Chris.D Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Guys, I have been bashing away on this forum for at least 10 years, and never had a problem. Now I find I have 3 identical posts up. (please remove some) And half the time, I cannot get pictures to stick, all that shows up is the url. I find the only way to get this right, is to do it all in a Word document and copy that all into the pages here. Still, it appears that is not fool proof either. I don't like this new format ! Chris.

Hello Chris, the only new condition is that you must post an image url and it must be https. http will no longer work and you will indeed only see the link.

Chris.D Posted February 1, 2021 Author Share Posted February 1, 2021 Yeh Nick, I know, but if you look back at my posting in "Community Screen Shots", "A morning harvey bay departure Saab style", on my first attempt I posted this, " Quote Both airlines had a daily flight from the south, Virgin from Sydney and JetStar from Melbourne. Virgin was flying daily right up 'till the end of 2020 when the Covid-19 overtook them. 28th July, 2005. https://i.imgur.com/Dou8ok7.jpg On the next attempt it worked. Maybe I'm loosing my touch,,,,, Bloody computers ! Anyway, all OK, I'll carry on, I have a plane to catch, Asuncion SGAS, Paraguay, to (SAEZ) Buenos Aires, Argentina to get some more screen shots.
