Anything goes, and mine's a Guinness.

Thanks for posting....my image details look as such and are different from yours. I've tried a variation of where to put the add on at the end to no avail.

Just tried your code. See below in code view and how it looks when saved in a forum post. First line generates the usual photobucket sh!te message. With the ~original suffix it shows the image (using Windows7 PC with Chrome browser). Note, I haven't got the [URL=http stuff.

Good luck with getting it working!

Thanks for taking the time and effort to post. I think it must be a Mac and Safari/Chrome thing. I had tried that before so I'll just have to continue having a look. I'l try another browser but I don't think it's going to work. Ho hum

Can you see the images at http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/r ... ican-90978 or only the Photobucket-ransom-placeholders? I just added ~original to all my IMG codes. They are visible in W7/Chrome on my PC and Android/Chrome on my phone.

How about in a Mac on Safari or Chrome?

Hi Chris....Yes the images show on Mac and Safari/Chrome.

Weird indeed that it works on Windows and not Mac with the addition placed in exactly the same spot...aaagghhhhh!!! :)

I imagine it's Apple's interpretation of the ~ symbol.
Try typing it in Notepad (which will chop out all the other hidden detritus that some word processing/ text editing software uses) and copy/paste it into your browser.
Also try copying and pasting any text/code (the entire text of your post, including img codes) into Notepad and then copy paste it back into your browser.

In Google Chrome install the extension as shown....read the instructions on the RHS if one can't see any pics.


Works for me so far. There's a couple of other extensions also that might assist.


:D
