    The preview images in the thread are oriented correctly but when I click to open to see the high resolution image they turn sideways.


    How do I stop this behavior?

    Ok, what I noticed was that my preview picture was actually turned sideways and when I opened the high red pic it was oriented the way I actually took the picture. Not sure how to stop the preview from being turned sideways since that is automatically resized.

    I have noticed that cropping a little off the original helps.  If it is a tall pic, then take a little off the top and bottom and leave the width. It doesn't take much and the auto resize will orient it correctly.

    Something with the auto resize and certain camera resolutions don't seem to mix well.

    My PM  has 308 new messages and it won't mark them read and I tried "marking it read".

    Do I really need to open EVERY old message to clear them?

    On a good note, it looks like the first posts of PMs is back?

    Lol, I have to admit, I was a little dumbfounded by that ridiculous number myself. I bet it's not even close to the highest here, though. I organize a lot of stuff, but don't talk nearly as much as some of these guys.

    How do I use the bookmark feature? I thought all i needed to do would be click on it while viewing something I wanted to book mark but that didn't work.

    Click on the star so that it becomes solid. 

    If you're viewing a list of threads, the star is to the right of each thread title.

    If you're reading a thread, the star is located up top to the right of the thread title.

    I guess I'm kind of stupid. Shut up Eric.

    But I was trying to figure out the "Quote Settings".
    How many levels deep should we start folding up quote trees?
    Uhm, all of them? 1 of them? 
    I set it to 1 level deep. 

    And...........nothing. It still quotes all of them.
    Ok, don't fold them?

    WTF? I have no idea. 
    Usually most forums will remove most of the quotes except for the post you are quoting if you set it for 1 deep.
    This forum, I'm lost. I have no freakin idea.

    And has anyone found the Help page for the forum yet?
    Or is it one of those, "Here, you pains in the **** bitched enough, we changed it, now you figure it out."?

    If you think I'm gonna scroll through all 163 pages of "Whatcha smoking this morning" just to read today's posts you're outta your mind. Each time I try to open it it starts with the first page - clear back in 2011. 

    I'm just not THAT curious....  Fix it or forget it...

    If you go to the very last page, and scroll down to the last post, next time you open it, it should go to the last post. At least that is what it did for me.

    What do you call the little horizontal menu where you select the page you want to see? And, there's a magnifying glass there so you can do a word search. Would it be too much to ask if we could get all that put on our inbox pages too?

    I thought there used to be one. Wasn't there? Tony says there wasn't one. Whether there was or wasn't one in the past, I need it now.

    How do i post bigger photos? When I post photos from my desktop they are small. I know the new forum resizes the photos but I see a lot of big photos. Do I click on the small photos before I post?

    I had to drag the photo into the box that says drop image/file, cause nothing else would work for me.
    I'm guessing I'm too stupid to figure it out.

    Everything else, just posts the text. Dunno.

    Help!!  Krebsie!  Somebody!!  Please, PLEASE get rid of that damned auto-save thingy for iPhones if you want me to keep posting to these boards. 

    Is anyone listening??

    Yes! It is unnecessary to save a draft 5 seconds in. Locks my phone up for a while every time.

    Send him a PM. Maybe he can change it, maybe he can't but I know he does read his PMs. @Krebsie
