Image from flikr (this didn't work in my own journal)



domtheknight successfully posted a photobucket image in a comment, so we'll test that too.



Another test, yo:



re: community invitation. I was invited, accepted and immediately granted posting access. Moderating worked, and now I've edited the post without trouble. Go Dreamwidth!

ETA: attempting to edit in the HTML window works like a charm.

That was my bad instructions! whoops! put the "quotes" around the link address.

Sorry!!

[katieintheworld]

No no! I tried it both ways, I just left it up without the quotes. Even with them in it doesn't work in the body of the post, only in comments for whatever reason.

domtheknight and I were sussing it out on my journal, actually, I just thought I'd see if it worked elsewhere.

[highlander_ii]

huh - that's weird.

I assume you were using the HTML editor, since you did the code yourself? Or did you type the code in the RTE? B/c the RTE doesn't parse code properly.

*ponders*

[katieintheworld]

I don't know--I've seen other folk post images in their DW journals. I maybe have started in the RTE, actually, but would that still apply if I go back and try to edit the entry after the fact?

[highlander_ii]

Yeah - if you use the RTE and try to enter HTML - it doesn't parse it as HTML. And we've been having issues w/ the RTE not functioning right - like, not letting ppl comment, etc. So that could be it.

[katieintheworld]

Yes! I made sure to switch to the HTML editor and was able to code. Awesome.

(now I just have to get the sizing reasonable. sheesh.)

[highlander_ii]

That's what cut tags are for! =)

[katieintheworld]

This is why I surround myself with smart people.

(actually, got the sizing a lot better, but you're right, cut-tags are your friend especially with images.)

[highlander_ii]

indeed!

Some comms will even require cut tags if images are over a certain size.

Sometimes there are auto-thumbnails too. *g*
