Testing button....

Test concluded. 

I am impressed with the fact that the picture you select actually appears in the preview pane.  Can be usefull if you are posting multiple images and need to keep them in a certain order.

 

I have figured out what is wrong with my brain!  On the left side nothing works right, and on the right side there is nothing left!

Hey guys.  The Insert Media is just one of the ways to insert a picture into the forums.  If you ever go to a site like Photobucket or Flickr they will usually supply you with the code snippet to insert the picture onto a site.  The Insert Media button is just another option to insert a picture if you are grabbing a picture from a site that doesnt' offer the code for you to generate the picture.

So bascially you have some options when it comes to inserting pictures.  Either way will work so it's mainly just a matter of preference.  Hope that answered your question Smile

Thanks for chiming in.  I was wondering why the need for the button.  Now we all know.

So you don't have to use their insert media button?  Why do they have it?  All it did for me was add a bunch of code to my picture.  When I inserted an image like I use to from photobucket, I didn't have the extra garbage on the screen.   Oh well, at least my picture shows up.

Is it a plowed field or my old corduroy pants on the layout?
