Clicking on the picture itself even in edit mode just takes me to my Imgur page. I'm thinking it was the link I used. I used the code under 'Direct Link' instead of the code for 'Image Link'. I can't be sure but I think I may have uploaded that picture to the server or something.

@lisasc360, BBC code no longer works, so the [command] [/command] is not an option. Not sure how commands work with this new format. I tried a bunch of RTF and html style commands and none of them worked. They may be disabled?
Yes, very important to get images under spoiler, I wish there will be some way.
My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
Has anyone found out how to center text? I hope it's not a complicated code...

I'm hoping that EA_Cade does a tutorial on how to use the new options that we have on the site now. I'm figuring some of them out as I go along but it would be nice to have a guide on how this works so that we can get use to the new way of things over here.
it's just kinda like giving newest iphone to your grandma still on the nokia like i didn't particularily need to change anything and this is so hard to use 😂

"it makes writing stories on here very difficult. I figured out how to add my photos, but it doesn't allow me to put texts under the photos, and when I do its not centered.
@CAPTAIN_NXR7 The problem I’m having is removing a picture. When I’m doing my SimLit stories I change pictures a lot before I’m done and post the story.
I switched browsers and I was able to at least delete the picture I posted as a test. I normally use Safari, so I switched to Chrome and found the solution. Even in Chrome if I clicked around the edges of the picture I still do not get the trash can symbol. If I place my cursor at the end of the text and press and hold the delete key it will erase the text and then erase the picture. I couldn't do that in Safari but I can in Chrome. Guess I'm switching browsers when I'm on the forums for now.🙂 If it helps to figure out the issue I'm having, when I add the picture and I'm still in the comment box or edit post I never see the code for the picture, all I see is the picture itself. Once I paste the code into the insert media box that's the last time I see it, even in edit mode.
The lack of a preview feature is going to make posting stories a lot more time consuming. I'm used to pasting several pictures in at one time, doing a preview and then doing a cut and paste to move them around if needed.
The picture I tested earlier was the same size that I've been using for the last year, 1024x768, and the picture looks about half the size it did before. No preview mode and no spoilers will make it hard to post stories. It will definitely hurt picture heavy stories, unless this new software somehow speeds up page load times to the point we won't need spoilers.
I really really hope this is something that can be ironed out fairly quickly or that we'll figure how everything works. I can see a lot people sharing tips and tricks to help each other out as we navigate this.

I apologise I did it wrong the last time. 😑
EDIT:
@DaniRose2143
I posted above picture via Direct Link and it works for me.
What doesn't work is copy-pasting multiple images in the "Insert Media" box. At least not with my image host (ImgBB).
I'm not giving up until I find a way to spoiler images!

i'm just not a fan of this new site. :( not very user friendly.

-I must admit that the current commenting system is extremely limiting, and let's be honest, it's 95% useless to have on a forum like this.
-Being the control freak that I am I feel as though I'm not fully in control of what I'm doing.
-There's no preview button.
-No option to place images under a spoiler tag.
-The Interface is dreadful. There's no clear overview of the tools we can utilize.
-We also need a preview button.
-We cannot format text within a spoiler tag.
-This is altogether dreadful.
-Let us build a time machine so that we can travel back to the old commenting system. 🤖

Huh, we can't put pictures in spoilers anymore. That's going to make the storytelling threads very hard to read.
@mightysprite,
It's frustrating.

Testing since this is become a nuisance. It would help if there was a preview button as well ..this is upsetting

Same, this is just so different. Even sad photos can't be spoiler tagged as @mightysprite pointed out

No preview mode and no spoilers will make it hard to post stories.

My stories usually aren't pic heavy, I never used spoilers for my pics before.

Hm, this is odd. I guess I will no longer use imgur? Because it looks like...this?
And uploading a picture looks like this.
