I have decided to start this thread for discussing technical issues that come up rather than messing up the other threads.
I guess the first issue seems to be pasting Word text into posting boxes.
Recently we have had three threads lockup up as a result of posts involving Word text.

It took me ages to realise that the numbers in the picture-upload box, below "Browse", can be altered - the width default is 500 but you can change it to 450 or 400 or lower if you post a pic and it comes out too big. You can just delete the pic whilst still in "compose" mode and upload it again, changing the max width before uploading.
Clear as mud?

Hi scylla, I vaguely remember trying size reduction last year...such a long time ago! After I commented on my picture being large, I realised that was the size most pictures posted come out as...if you see what I mean ;-)
Absent pictures. Can anyone please explain why pictures are not appearing in some of the posts on my computer?. Some appear, some do not !. I have just checked the Friday update page 23/3 and none of the pictures have appeared. Yesterday on one of the pages some did some did not!!.

It could be lots of things. It is a lot to do with the specification of your computer and the speed of your connection etc.
Are you a computer savvy person who maintains your computer in tip top condition?
doggie Last Friday I was trying to show some people what YouTube could do. I was shocked just how slow the link was and how it became a real pain.
I think part of the reason there was that the hard disk was too full and computers get very slow when the hard disk gets too full.
In fact it can become almost impossible to clean up a computer if it gets in too bad a state.
I advocate clearing the cookies and temporary files regularly and defragging the disk.
Tiger I understand your point BUT I have checked out Alan's links, all of them including the videos , and they appear instantly and run perfectly !. That is what is so frustrating...AAARRRGH.

Is this the link you are talking about?
Tiger. Yes
Alan, yours work perfectly and instantly. Yes only appears to affect the LG posts.

So it is embedded videos that you cannot see. Now is there anywhere else you can look to check if you can see embedded videos?
