A 'Tie Off in Toronto?' Good Show! ?
@bassbug, I notice you're smoking a Peterson's, even though it's not my place to but may a suggest a nice tie in tweed? A Donegal tweed in a Prince of Wales check would go well with the pipe, I think.

I thought about it but we decided to go a little more formal. Can't give too much away but I think my bent billiard meer is the way to go for this one. Fear not though, I suspect we might just make this an ongoing affair.

Wow @Cigar Ash Queen that’s quite an amazing looking Castello! ?

By the way, be sure to click on the picture image, next to the smiley face to add/embed images into the posts, not as attachments. :)

Enjoy that pipe!

Do you mean to imply, the members here are real people? I will have to rethink my whole approach to posting. Seriously, it's neat to meet up with a real person now and then. It's a whole new day.

@Cigar Ash Queen look at this screenshot I attached, see the clip, picture and smiley face.

You’d click/tap the picture. :)

I’m assuming it should be there on the phone. Hmm ?

I haven't figured out how to post a pic to the site using my phone for over a couple of years. I know I will never figure it out. I can only use my computer to post pics. Don't worry about the phone thing.

I never use the computer for this I just use the phone. I take the pictures with the phone and I just post from the phone. I don't use my computer for this ??

I use Android, it should also show up on iPhones the same.

Here’s a picture I just took of my phone, it shows the Picture and Clip.

Clip = Attachment
Picture = Embed Pictures into posts.

The screen shots show from Left to Right;

B = Bold
I = Italics
Order - Ident
Clip - Add an attachment
Picture - add embed an image from your device.

When you click the Picture, you are adding an image from your Phone’s Photo Gallery.

When you click the picture you’ll get this pop up little window. Click/Tap on ‘Drop image’ - (Or click here), to add an image from your Gallery.

By the way guys/gals Phones use actual Computer Operating Systems designed for phones, and if a website designer builds a proper website, properly supporting the browsers on Phones which use Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc., just like computers, they will render the site pretty much in the same mannner.

Given a phone screen is smaller, some of the Navigation Links might appear differently, but the overall site should be close to the same, or some sites will render instead a mobile version, but it shouldn’t feel alien compared to the computer version, just laid out different.

P.S. Sorry for the off topic... :(

Sure you can Attach, but when you Attach viewers have to click them, embedding them, they are added into the post like how you saw I did. Then an embedded image, if it was larger, can be clicked to view enlarged if needed.

Embedding just makes it more user friendly is all.

The actual steps to either attach or embed are no more or less to accomplish, just different.

?? How old are your kids? I'm 45 ?
My oldest son is 31, oldest daughter is 27,youngest son is 25, youngest daughter is 19. I am 63, soon to be 64. I am a real old 63, I am more like 84 as I lived hard through the 70's and 80's. I retired in 2017 when I sold my last business. My timing couldn't have been better. I still did some private lending but got out the minute the covid came a knocking. If things settle down, I will go back into my private lending.
