Older posts, which I'm sure used to show a pic, now show a hyperlink.  When I click on that link, it tries to open, but gives just a blank page.

Is that what you get, Bob?

That's what I get Dave. Thats ok, I was just concerned that it was a problem with my PC but apparently not then.  I guess it's something to do with when the forum was repatriated and relaunched. Its a shame people are not using it more. The facebook groups have taken over though in my view not nearly as useful a format. Still that progress!

If the photo is linked to a photobuckrt account, then it will no longer work unless the account holder is a paying customer. All the free hosting has been nixed for forum posts.

I wondered about that, but then found that the same problem occurs with photos that I posted - and I've never used Photobucket!
