    How do I clear out my PM inbox?

    How do I cut-and-paste images into a post?

    Thanks..

    Clearing PM's...

    Check the little box at top right of inbox, ~~ click the pull down "Selected Messages," ~~ check "Delete," ~~ Click "Proceed"



    Posting images...

    Copy image URL ~~ In the PF reply window, scroll over/click on "Insert Image" icon, ~~ Click "From URL," ~~ Paste URL (of image you copied), ~~ Uncheck "Retrieve remote file and reference locally," ~~ Click "OK"



    Good luck. :thumbsup:



    ***By unchecking the "Retrieve remote file and reference locally," your image will post at normal size. Leaving the little box checked, will result in your image posting as a clickable thumbnail. ***

    Good job, Blackrook! :thumbsup:


    Just so you'll know... if you ever wish to post a youtube video, follow the same steps as with the image, with one exception. Instead of clicking the "Insert Image" icon, click on the "Insert Video" icon and paste the URL.

    A Pashtun girl,...what was the point of posting that...?

    Interesting selection...she was orphaned during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan in the 80's and that photo made the cover of National Geographic. The Afghani equivalent of the Mona Lisa...the picture was taken in a Pakistani refugee camp.

    probably more information than anyone needed...
