Greetings from Canada!

When you switched over to the new-style forum, I was apparently granted the ability to add an attachment to a post, for which I am very grateful.  However, I don't seem to be able to do it if I simply want to reply to another post.  The option only appears in a 'New Topic' post.  Am I missing something here? I don't want to have to set up an external account simply to show a picture I already have on my computer.

Thanks,
Mike

After clicking reply, did you try to click on additional options?
I was there the day that Horus fell.

Very weird! I get the option to attach if I reply to this post...

but not if I try to reply to this one!

Not even sure if this will work since I can't see anything in Preview.

I can see them, too, but this is the only place I can add them! Any other topic than 'About Forum' will not let me post an attachment.  There is no 'Attach' feature under 'Additional Options' under any other heading than this one.

"Click back into Blonde mode" - How do I do that, not sure what the member categories are?

you have to donate some money to support the forum using the Paypal button below on the page. After that I'll add change your membership to "supporting adventurer", and you'll be able to add atttachments to your posts, create own Gallery on the forum, post Downloads in the Downloads section and Events in Calendar.

What Alex forgot to add is that once you've become a supporting adventurer he'll be coming over with a branding iron. The 'Mine for life' on your right buttock will sting and ooze for a couple of weeks but you'll survive.
