I have the Flash 8 player, but I don't see any "Insert image" link. (I'm using the latest version of Safari, if that's relevant.)

Same thing with Firefox.

I do notice that the "Online users:" is formatted differently in Firefox than in Safari. In Firefox, it is formatted paragraph-style with gray vertical bars between names. In Safari, it's one name per line, like a list.

Oops. Forgot to change the upload permissions. Should be available now.

Christian, great job! Thanks for all the hard work! :-)

Just a test

Yay!

The player is here for OX

IT WORKS!

Now I shall haunt this blog until the lost posts of my former life have risen from the dust!

Dang, Stewf, get rid of that scary critter. He's giving me the heebiejeebies!

Don't worry Ghost, I've been putting some serious time into your resurrection as well. You wouldn't believe how complicated it is. I'm just saying this so you'll think it's cool when 10,000 moderator posts magically appear, all sifted into their proper threads in the proper order.

Alright--PNG!

It appears to use the original file name. What happens if someone uses a file name that's already been used?

Duplicate file names get renamed filename01.jpg, etc. There is a known bug where the javascript that adds the [img:] tag sometimes won't reflect the change, however. I'm working on that as we speak.

Thank you Christian!

Er... not to turn this into the bug report page, but when I get here from the "recent posts" page and then use the back button to go back to the "recent posts" page, I get a "page not found" error. If I reload when I'm on the error page, it comes back.

Oh, and thanks, Christian, for all the work you've put into this. It's really shaping up. Seems faster, too.

Needless to say, Christian rules. I'm lucky to sit by him (when I get to sit)

'Nother tiny bug: linebreaks not working after picture.

Great!
Finally I can show Yves my true identity!

Christian is the man.

Norbert, now I'm going to hear Antonio Banderas' voice every time I read your posts.

Here, take a look at my new ride... I'm trying to recreate an African safari with the kiddie pool in the background. Oh, and on the other side of that fence is Chesh's house. =)

> Norbert, now I’m going to hear Antonio Banderas’ voice every time I read your posts.

That's OK. Antonio and I are often mistaken for each other. I know that's true because my wife keeps calling out, "Antonio, Antonio!"

OK! So I am ready to test this with an important photo op from the Oval Office:-)

Ok Chris, that is just disgusting. This may be the first time I exercise my moderator powers. Oh, the joys of image upload. :-) File name fix coming...

"Ok Chris, that is just disgusting."

LOL!!! Sorry Christian, I had to test the automated image correction feature--it works! :-)

Or are your retinas aching from the glare coming off my bald head? :-D

ChrisL

Dang, I was going to upload a pic of our S2000, but I'm not seeing that "insert image" link. I have Flash Player 8 installed, and rebooted after installing it.... hmph.

Thomas,
I thought you guys ownwd Macromedia--Flash 8 should just dance onto your PC just outta respect for The Man :-)

ChrisL

Vince, I knew you were getting your license since I caught up with your motorcycle escapades on Flickr. But I didn't know you were scoping the Multistrada. The 620 rocks and I dig it in yellow.

Chris,

It was the shirt,( it looks neon pink on my monitor ) and the car aint so bad, I gotta 94 hand-me-down Maxima.

yes the Vespa is more wabblely, small wheels and very bottom heavy.. motorcycles are more stable and easier to take curves and move. But in England you have to do a test with a 500cc manual if you want to ride a proper motorcycle. America they seem to let you ride if you take a class. But in England you have to take a class just to be allowed to ride a 125cc scooter or motorcycle and that is as high as you can go until you do your full test and written test.

I'm going to rent a Multistrada 620 if I can and also test the Honda CBR 600RR or 600F. the Honda sounds nice but the Ducati is cooler and a good city bike. The Suzuki Gn125 that I'm renting is a piece of junk.. clutch is loose it needs a bit of choke to start up and then has a bit of trouble keeping an idle. The gears can be a bit clunky and it can't hit 50mph even though I have done 53mph on my Vespa and the Vespa sounds better than the Suzuki.

Wow! These people are allowed to drive!?

YAHOO! What a great find!

Thanks!

> America they seem to let you ride if you take a class.

No, the motorcycle written test is actually pretty hard, much
harder than the car one (although I admit that's not saying much).
The last time I took it I barely passed. The actual riding test I
couldn't tell if it was hard or not, since I'd been riding for a few
years already... in Beirut - now THAT was an effective "class". :-)
