Image Code and Formatting

[Suicune's Fire]

Am I just stupid, or is there no

[img][/img]

button?

Because to me that's really odd. o.o The attachment feature absolutely sucks and I hate when I accidentally attach something because I want img code and don't want to type it out instead. =/ Can we PLEASE have an image code button instead of that dumb attach one? >:c


Also, I still really hate that you can't quote something and format the whole post without it turning the quoted stuff into the colour and font you wanted for YOUR writing. It's so tedious to go through and specifically format your writing between quotes, especially if you do a lot. I would REALLY appreciate if this was fixed.

Thanks!

To insert images with the simple image code, you click the Insert Image button (the tree in the picture frame). Let it load fully. Now click the tab that says From URL.



Untick the box that says Retrieve remote file and reference locally (I think this means that the file will be downloaded to the PXR server and then uploaded as an attachment, rather than directly linked from the URL, however it didn't work when I tried it). Then you will simply get given the original URL in image tags.

Honestly I never use those buttons anyway, because it's so much easier just to type [img][/img]. But I can see how it would be pretty annoying. I'm not sure if there's a way to simplify it. Let's wait and see if anyone already knows a simple solution, otherwise I'll see what I can find!

xD So I am an idiot then. I think the other thing is what makes it confusing. xD

Can anything be done about the formatting issue? Also the Control Z issue, that makes several things disappear rather than just the last action you took? If I make a mistake and press control Z, it erases like, half of my sentence when all I wanted was the last action I took. It gets frustrating. xD

Control Z works here just fine. I believe that control Z is browser dependent...:(

Hm, I just tried it in Chrome and it does the same thing. For instance, if I quickly write

Hey, I'm a banana.

And then wrap it in the wrong font by mistake, when I press Control Z I expect it to get rid of the formatting. It doesn't. It Control Zs back further than that and gets rid of not only the formatting, but the text as well. I'll google to see if it's a browser thing or not. It's just that Pe2k didn't do that; it only ever Control Z'ed the last thing I did.
