A test post - trying to figure out how to make linkable thumbnail images...

Here's a video I took:

Not yet Ash,  the problem with embedding video is that it opens a lot of security holes.

There are ways to do it but it's not at the top of the list just yet.

What do others reckon?  I find the slightly paler/lighter lower contrast text in this forum  and in other parts of the website harder to read on some of my screens than darker higher contrast text on the old forums - especially in brighter sunlight outdoors .

Its not  a major problem as I just zoom in till its comfortable - but I could stay zoomed out and read more at a time with the old font settings!

But maybe i set my defaults smaller than most to get more screen estate!

Would be nice if we could easily post pics. It was awkward on the old site, having to host them another site first, so I tended not to post many. Therefore I opted to plonk them on FaceBook instead.

Well the pic attached but I presume multi pics would be attached together at the bottom of the post. Not easy for writing a story and plonking pics in between the notes.

Any ideas?

Oh yeah.....the preview button doesn't show the pic either.

It's a slight pain uploading images to a site like Postimage, but then you can list them like this, with relevant comments:

Flying above clouds

Flying under clouds

Flying over a town

Flying near an airfield

Flying around a cloud

Flying XC

On the old website, Postimage photos seemed to randomly  disappear after a while. This seems to be because on the free version of Postimage images are deleted if there are no views for 6 months. Drew, is there a way to upload images and host them here?
