Serious Question:
How do you intersperse images with text? As in: text, image, commentary, another image, final thought; IE how the IotD is laid out.

I've quoted posts such as this, to see how it was done, and in the case of the IotD, it's an [IMG] of an image at a Cellar URL. But, how do I attach an image to The Cellar, to be [IMG]ed in a thread? It's not on an option the attachments page.

I don't want to reference images from Photobucket, etc. I want to attach them here. Is it possible to place them anywhere other than what seems to be the default - at the very bottom of the post (after the text)?

UT can and probably will answer better than I can. BUt my understanding is that it's just not set up to do that. But let me see if I can get around it in a very awkward way.

This is a picture that I attached in a thread about camping. I'm linking to it here. It will hopefully show up in the body of the post.

and this is a picture I took at the Baltimore Aquarium. I attached it to a post I made in a thread about close ups.

I have no idea how to do this without going back and finding images I had attached in previous threads. It would take some work. Maybe you could compose a post, upload an attachment and then delete the post before submitting it. Maybe the attachment would still be there and you could find it in the user cp.

Edit: I see that it didn't work. It can't be done. I used the [IMG] feature as well. Nevermind.

You can't do it with attachments. You can only do it with images that are hosted somewhere where they let you link to them.

How does the "multi-quote this message" button work? I have clicked it several times and nothing has happened. *I did check the FAQ first.

Shawnee123 · 07-20-2007, 02:24 PM

hit multi-quote for the first (and second or third) quote you want. On the LAST quote you want, just hit the regular quote button.

Thank you.

Why does it only take pay pal?

How can you contribute without going through the link on the bottom?

I have an I.D. 10 T going on.......
Ummm....what are the instructions for creating a poll?

Shawnee123 · 07-23-2007, 11:57 AM

When you start a new thread, the option to post a thread is at the bottom of that page. After you click to start a new poll, and pick the number of answer options, you will have to submit that thread before you actually create the poll (hence my "testing" post, I was trying to get the steps for you. I don't think I can delete it.) Then you get to create your poll, preview it, and submit it.

Maybe buying jewelry from Katkeeper still funnels some dough his way too. And I should add that her jewelry is very very nice so you get something nice in return. My wife loves the earrings I got her. She wears them all the time.

TheMercenary · 07-23-2007, 12:30 PM

Well somebody pm me someplace I can contribute other than on paypal.

Rexmons · 08-01-2007, 11:51 AM

not really a question so much as a statement:

I just discovered the "Quick Style Chooser" drop down menu on the bottom left of the page and I have to say "The Cellar vBulletin 3 Style" is VERY NICE!

Shawnee123 · 08-01-2007, 01:03 PM

Who are these people passerine and recuse who have been "logging in" for about 8 hours, and who never have any activity? Are we being hacked by people who look just like us?

Shawnee123 · 08-01-2007, 04:08 PM

I was serious with that question. They're still logging in, and they were logging in yesterday.

I'm so confused!
