It shows my computer's jpg like it used to. But when I go to post it, just a code shows up. Like this:

sunflower.jpg

Do you see a code or a picture of a sunflower?

No picture. If you "reply with quote" to the sunflower post and look in the message box does it show the code?

I see a sunflower :) I have no problem uploading images from either source: my computer, or the net. I have no idea why others are experiencing technical difficulties in this regard :(

what if you go to the advanced posting menu, and select "manage attachments"

then can you upload a picture from that GUI?

my intuition is that y'all have some kind of screwball security setting preventing you from seeing your images. because Blue & i can see the sunflower, but AuntieAnt can't.

but that wouldn't explain why the dialogue option is missing from some people. that seems like a forum permissions thing. but the fact that at least one thread exists where y'all can still upload normally makes it not a permissions thing, because that should be global. or at least sub-forum controlled.
((plus we are informed by mod this is not the case))

so i might think it's possible there's database corruption on the forum server that degraded the permissions of some members in *almost* all the threads. which is a kind of catch-all "well something must be just plain broken" -- not really an 'answer' at all.
but -- there's the fact that kodiak deleted his account and made a new one, and still has the same issue. which is evidence against it being random data corruption, since he's a new user now.

which makes this a real puzzle. interesting :)

((just getting the facts laid out in one place helps sometimes)) -- all this is correct, correct?

one thing about all this, and the fact this thread happened to pop up in "recent" list, so i decided to look at it, is that via inference, reading through all this, now i know who Charlie is :)

because i didn't, before. but i loved him anyhow. isn't that cool?

yay!
