A question about CAF links.

[carlito1978]

to me posting a picture is the same as posting a link. I don't mind either. but if there is no substance behind the post, imo it's better just left as a post on caf then on here.

I try to let everyone know what I've posted clearly, then if they choose to go further down the rabbit hole, it's entirely up to them.

I just link directly from CAF for posting images here. Right click on the CAF image and add the [IMG] tags here – no need to host pn PB, etc.

I enjoy both comments on CAF (met some really nice folks due to comments there) and interaction on the thread here. Threads with pics here tend to generate more conversation/back and forth.

I generally post to CAF and SF and sometimes I will write an article on my site but I totally get the desire not to duplicate – it’s a matter of personal preference.

I do the CAF link and attach the images.

I was under the impression that if you're logged in as a user, you see the attached images at the bottom of the post. Is attaching different than the IMG tags you're referencing JadeGiant?

Here is using IMG tags and then attached:

Used to do it, but then realised no one else was doing it and just posted links because it was quicker.
