Linking pictures from album question

[cskipper]

Not sure that this is a bug, so will ask here rather than the problem reporting tab. Who can see Help Desk posts? Also, if it's really what I am seeing I thought we might want to fix it rather than announcing it in case someone feels mischievous.

When we want to add a photo from our album to a post there is only one option - link thumbnail. When I did that the other day the picture didn't appear - just the dreaded red 'X.

In PeteM's post about his bed 0 when you click on the picture to enlarge it, you get the options of editing the picture and presumably deleting it - just like he has in his album. Am I seeing all this because I am a moderator, or can other members see and access the edit features too?

Cathy,

I added a photo of the shop dog to a reply a few days ago without a problem. I went into the album and right-clicked on the photo. I selected copy link form the menu and ...

When we want to add a photo from our album to a post there is only one option - link thumbnail. There are other options like embedding the full size pic, you just have to click on the more options icon to have them appear. And you always can do it the old fashion way with a right click to get the pic Properties and the copy/paste them into the Insert Image box.

I have noticed what you are mentioning when folks use the provided linked thumbnail URL. I would guess that we can see the ability to edit the pics because of our permissions. But even if regular members can't see it, the junk that ends up on the page when the linked thumb is clicked is rather distracting.
