Ok, I can not seem to find the setting that allows the pictures in the threads to show.

All I see is a 'Attached Images' link.

I'm not new to forums, Just this one :)

Thanks
Tim

To make images viewable, you have to add [IMG] tags (they are the mountain picture logo).

Normally, users upload their images to sites like www.imageshack.us or www.photobucket.com and then copy the addresses that include the IMG tags.

If you want to upload your picture to PBR but make it viewable, you can do the following:
1) Upload picture normally
2) Click on the attached image link in your new post
3) Copy the URL of that image
4) Edit your post and click on the mountain picture and paste the URL.

Uploading to Imageshack or Photobucket would be easier, IMO.

Hmm, I said View them in the threads. I don't want to post an image. Just want them to show up in the threads without clicking on all of ths links.

Thanks

If so, follow my steps.

EDIT: And I just realized/remembered that PBR hates "=" and other foreign characters in URLs for images. Use Photobucket or Imageshack.

Here's my settings on Pbreview.

I have the 3rd box checked but I still just see the link that I have to click on.

SpyderOWNAGE, You said.

I understand this. But I didn't post the pictures. I just want to see them without clicking each and every link.

Oh, I see. Just after the upgrade to vB3.6, it was like that.

Andrew most likely disabled that for all users no matter the choice they have made because I remember them dissappearing after everything was sorted out after the upgrade.
