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.

Re the peregrine thread in Wildlife on the Web, Chrome is refusing to load it because it contains material from the peregrine website:
The site was hacked a week or so ago but had recovered. How thoroughly mean and nasty some people are :'(

Can we put pictures in PMs? If so, how, please?
:-)
Scylla, the photo has to be placed somewhere on the Internet, like in a Flickr Account or something like that. Then all you need to do is copy it into your PM. Dont ask why it has to be on the internet somewhere, I dont know why LOL... but it works I have done it several times.

Nice one Doggie, never thought of that LOL....
Mary an image has to have a live link (ie web address) so that your internet browser can find and display it. This is why you can't copy and paste directly from your computer. Uploading it here or somewhere else on the web gives it an address. That is why if the link gets broken you end up with the dreaded red X
Some good ideas there from Doggie!
