That no longer seems to work. When you press forward, you don't get to see the underlying message/code.

The workaround that zzz came up with is to send out reveals in a code box, like this:

Code: Select all

msjoanna's reveal
[url=bookcrossing.com]book title[/url] by author
[img]image HTTP goes here[/img]

Text
So, around the text of the reveal, you put

Code: Select all

...[/code ] (without the spaces).

I think we have a topic called Swapping 101 that addresses that. :hmm:

ETA:

Swapping 101

Also I wanted to mention if you have someone's PM with their reveal just hit forward, copy and paste that, then remove the quotes. :wave:
Ok, looked into the forward. All I get is Also if I copy and try to paste it in, pictures still do not show. :( Also, I guess I'm blind this morning, I can't find anything about this in 101
Sorry my fault there that was the way we did it at the old forums. I didn't realize it doesn't work here. :duh:

Do you know how to right click on a picture then hit copy image location? All you have to do then is but the img tags around it. :)

Code: Select all

Maybe it's just me but I used to have two folders in my inbox. One with regular pm's and another in which I kept the pm's with the addresses I got.

Now when I go to my inbox, I can still see these folders. The inbox one works and I can see I have 19 messages in the addresses-folder but when I open it, it says: there are no pms. :hmm:

Did you delete your Archive? I did that and it still showed that messages in my other folders and there was none. :sigh:
Is that on the To do list?

Dark Glass · Frostee · Sila · Simple Blue · Soothe · Zeta Original · ZetaBB · ZetaFree

I've never seen anything missing from mine either, they've always all been there, but Fantasy, are you saying that you're always missing the bottom ones, or whichever ones are after the one you're currently using, or something along those lines?
I see a different amount of theme choices depending on which theme I've chosen. For example, if I'm using Zeta Original, the last choice in the list I see if Zeta Original. But if I switch to Dark Glass, the last choice in the list that I see if Soothe. I think the problem for me is that my taskbar on my desktop is twice the size of a regular desktop. That's probably why I can't see all of the choices, and that's okay. I usually don't have a problem with things like that because I can usually scroll down far enough to be able to see all of the choices in the drop-drown but I can't here because its so close to the bottom. It's okay!

Yeah I did! I thought these were all mails I had sent out or deleted from my inbox. Are you telling me those were also all my mails with addresses? :cry:

I think someone mentioned that to delete a pm, for now you have to archive it and then delete it from there.
I don't know if someone has made any suggestions already, but I found a better way:

Near the top of the page there is a box for Manage Messages. Click on "Manage Message Tags".
Add one for "Trash", "Delete", or whatever you like.
In your inbox, click on the message, then go to bottom left of page, select your trash box, click "Tag Selected Messages".
That would move your unwanted pms over to your trash box. Where you can safely delete everything, without having to weed through the archive box and worrying about deleting something by mistake.

I wanted to point out that we can set up a blog here.
Click on preferences on the top left, under profile options click my blog. From there you can set it up. Only thing is you have to leave a link in your signature or elsewhere for others to access it and yourself even.

For example, here's mine: http://bookobsessed.com/blog/main/85931/
