How serenely succinct! Thanks for the pic conniption

More can be learned about the fellow in this photo here.

I thought about placing it in the coulda been the onion thread but decided not to. Then I thought about posting it in a thread of its own, with only this to say, "So tell me again how hard your life has been."

Notice you can click on the picture to find the article or source? I get a little frustrated at times with the images thread when there are no words or links..
"So tell me again how hard your life has been."

but please don't think I'm complaining. Nope. Not me. Not ever again. tyvm

So how did you embed the link into the photo? I know that long ago when we could upload photos directly from our own libraries, I would also embed a link to my source into the photo. It seemed to me that feature was no longer possible when we moved to the system now in place; something to do with the link corrupting the img tags.

Please explain!

just quote the message and you'll see how the bbcode works to have the img be a link

it's just that the body of the link is the img tag.

Code: Select all

[url=whatever]<body of url>[/url]
<body of url> can = [img]pictureURL[/img]

Feeling pretty dumb right about now, thanks Drew. It's how I paste all the photos into news stories I post.

This was funny, but is that the silhouette of a kkk member in the background?

Schmazo, Very cool photo! Doesn't look like his first ride, but perhaps the woodpecker's first passenger.

Regarding this photo

An appropriate setting for displaying Snowden's head appropriately upon an appropriate pole.
