STILL having problems with the yellow photo button.....
You used to be able to copy a photo from any location and hit the yellow button and instantly copy that photo to your post, just like a lot of other forums I'm on. Why now does it take forever to do that with another screen that comes up to post it??? I've asked this before and was that you were looking into the problem.....Any answers?
PLEASE go back to the old system.

The Yellow button opens the new Uploader feature that allows members to drag and drop photos from a computer to CorvetteForum's server. It also allows easier posting of Attachments by allowing the member to place them anywhere within a post and also add captions.
The original Yellow button simply opened a prompt that allowed a member to paste a URL to image online. In short, all it did was add the IMG tag around the URL you pasted.
You will need to manually type the opening and closing IMG tag and paste the URL inside that if you want to continue doing what you previously did.
As to how it works on other forums, yes it is different because the new Uploader is a feature Internet Brands developed to replace a severely outdated procedure to uploading photos.
