Great shots, Abil Midena! I thought I was running a wide screen at 3440X1440, but yours is crazy wide!

I copy and paste the BBCode link from Imgur for my images. It works well.

Here are a few more selfies from my exploration trip to Sag A*....

(click to enlarge)

A colorful gas giant:



Three brown dwarfs... although they aren't brown:



And because dwarfs need all the attention that they can get, here are two from a neighboring system:



And... last but certainly not least.... I give you.....

The Great Annihilator!

Thanks Flip!

Thought I'd celebrate a small personal milestone with a 'selfie'

This is "Monty, of course" setting off to make the final few kills needed for me to make the rank of 'Expert'.



(Even though my own definition of 'expert' runs thus:- An 'ex' is a has-been & a 'spurt' is a drip under pressure )

Thanks. I notice you have two links for the image, and when you click on the image, it goes full screen. I can't seem to make mine do that. What am I missing?

It took me a few tries to find the easiest method (for me, anyway).

Here's what I do:

After image is uploaded on Imgur, copy and paste the BBCode link, like this:

Code: Select all

[img]http://i.imgur.com/bqSI17m.jpg[/img]

That will get your image posted on our forum. To make the picture a link to the full size image, copy just the http link within the BBCode link that you copied and pasted, like this:

Code: Select all

http://i.imgur.com/bqSI17m.jpg

Now, highlight your image link in the message (the entire BBCode link from Imgur) and click the "insert URL'"link at the top of the page. Now it looks like this:

Code: Select all

[url][img]http://i.imgur.com/bqSI17m.jpg[/img][/url]

The last step is to paste the image info that you copied from within the BBCode link *after an "=" sign* in the url link, like so:

Code: Select all

[url=http://i.imgur.com/bqSI17m.jpg][img]http://i.imgur.com/bqSI17m.jpg[/img][/url]

Just make sure that your "=" and link are inside the URL link's bracket or it won't work right.

I hope this helps!

There's an Asp joke in there somewhere, but I will leave it to Kharma.

Great shot Victoria.
