It appeared to be seen by all so I just deleted the test pic after about an hour since it was personal and more of a off topic picture than a technical picture. I will post a test pic in the Off-Topic testing topic later. Will leave it up and you can tell me if you see it ok. There is a pict of my desktop on the off-topic thread called "show your desktops". I prefer to pull the pics off of my websites instead of trusting a public site. They say they delete them but you can never be sure in today's world. Kindest Regards, Rick P. ♥ :) whs on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-/page/2#post-45432 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 20:13:10 +0000 whs 45432@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ Rick, the discussion was about a warning message one got from the IE in Vista. But when you add HTG to the trusted sites, then you are no more being molested by this warning every time you click LINK or IMAGE. In XP you may not have this same problem. PS: What are those pics you are talking about? raphoenix on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-/page/2#post-45428 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 19:59:56 +0000 raphoenix 45428@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ @whs, My pictures come off my websites and I just code them in using image html tags. I don't know anything about the Trusted Server Box. I wonder if all folks will be able to see my pics ???? @Moderator, @Geek, Scott saw my test pics OK last night but wonder if others can who don't know about Trusted Server Trick in whatever O/S or browers they are using ???? Kindest Regards, Rick P. ♥ :) whs on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-/page/2#post-45425 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 19:36:14 +0000 whs 45425@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ After I unchecked the "Server Verification" box (as suggested in the link that ScottW provided), the trusted site entry worked and now both Link and Image work properly. Thanks everybody for the assistance and guidance.

The Geek on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-#post-45327 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 04:33:17 +0000 The Geek 45327@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ The really strange thing is that if you use backticks, it kills the content. If you use the code tag, it works but then replaces them with backticks so you have to then replace them when editing... I don't get it, but I'll figure it out. The Geek on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-#post-45323 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 04:03:21 +0000 The Geek 45323@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ I used the code tag... there's still a bit of flaky behavior with code tag and backticks... I'm trying to figure out why. jd2066 on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-#post-45321 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 03:59:21 +0000 jd2066 45321@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ How did you get it to show the URL tag as text at the end of your post instead of it turning into a link? The Geek on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-#post-45320 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 03:54:24 +0000 The Geek 45320@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ I've also swapped out the bbcode plugin with another one that works a little better... rather than converting the bbcode to html it keeps it intact when editing. For instance, I added this with the URL tag: <a href="http://www.howtogeek.com">http://www.howtogeek.com</a> <code>[URL]http://www.howtogeek.com[/URL]</code> raphoenix on "New HTG Forum features !" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/new-htg-forum-features-#post-45298 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 02:04:31 +0000 raphoenix 45298@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ @Aleeve, Thanks. By the way, don't forget to order that memory we discussed last night for the "family" machine. It will work.

I'm going to adapt the script to do an in-browser popup instead of the default javascript prompt. The buttons are mostly useful for people that don't know how to create links or image tags, since it always seems to be a question of how to do it.
