Thank you.

Is there a way to turn a quoted photo to a thumbnail, to save bandwidth? I deleted Ian's and then saw that you'd done the same with mine.

They sure are OhLook, my favourite parts of America.

When you quote a photo it should turn into a link to the original. You will see "attachment" and if you click on it, the photo will open. So no need to worry about that.

As to the photos not having been included in my comment to both you and Ian, what I did was not quote your posts, but instead I typed an "at" symbol first, like so
@ and then, without a space, typed your username. As you type a little window will pop up that you can click on (which is handy if it's a long username) or you can just continue typing. It looks like this:



What this does is turn the username into a link after the post has been submitted. And the user of the name gets a notification that there has been a reply to their post.
So when I type and submit this: @OhLook you should get a notification and your username should now be a link that opens up your profile window when you click on it.

Yosemite, taken all the way back in 2011 (when I actually had a life the time to take photos )



Not from a national park, but not really worth its own thread. From Wittenham Clumps, Oxfordshire/Berkshire, UK:

LOL
Photos are great though.

Thanks.

I'd love to make it back to Yosemite, but with a young family such trips are not feasible (at least in terms of me spending loads of time taking pictures).

No, I guess not. But your children will love you for putting them first, I'm sure...

One of my favorites of many I've taken in Zion N.P.

The vapor almost seems to rise as I look at it. I know this is a still image!
