That's what most if not everyone else has to do to, we have been having problems with the forum that none of the Admins or Mods have any control over. So for now we have to deal with it until we hear from the owners.

I'm on Instant Messenger with Big Admin right now. They are still working on the problems. The most important problems are being worked on first. We have many members who can't log on for some unknown reason. Some glitch has caused problems in their accounts and we have to get them up and running. We apologize for the inconvenience. We are lucky to be up at all the way things are going.

RE: why the red Xs?

When I post a picture the red X in the box shows up. It took me a while to figure out if I click on the red X, the picture shows up. If I click on the words that state something like&nbsp\\;"attachment" I get nothing.

RE: why the red Xs?

A tried and true way to get the pics to actually show on the page is to upload them to a free acct. at www.photobucket.com. Copy the Direct Link from photobucket to your clipboard.

Now when posting here you'll see a yellow envelope icon, lower right of all icons. I've circled it in red. Click on that and paste the photobucket Direct Link in the box that pops up - the Explorer User Prompt. See below, and this is a pic I'm posting.
