What browser and version are you guys using that are experiencing this issue?

Yesterday when Corvette440 posted large sized pictures on the body carrier post the text did not wrap it stayed the same size as the photo, so you had to scrol along with it to read.

It has always happened when a large image is posted in a thread....one of the reasons large images are discouraged. Sometimes, also, it appears when text is copied from an e-mail, and pasted. The formatting messes up the post, and it does the scroll thingy. My suggestion, other than, "Folks, please stop posting large images /copying e-mails", is...get a larger screen! LOL

I just modified Larry's pic in that thread, so it's not super large. That should take care of that thread, anyway.Thumbs Up

I had a few posts last night I viewed that needed to scroll left and right as well. I dont remember if they are with pics included or not. It is also just a few letters missing that you need to scroll for. I'll have to watch to see if it happens again does it include a pic. I havent figured out how to post pics with this new format yet!

Rod, when you post , or reply you will see an icon up on top tool bar of a "Tree" click on that and upload your picture. Then on that page on right side you can resize the photo so its not to large. Just make sure you reduce the Horizontal and Verticle numbers equally. I usually cut both numbers in half and that works. If you see its still to large cancel the post and resize it smaller.
It really is not that hard to do, try it.
