    Whitman reacted to MikeBiDude in Old version of the forum   
    Well the first thing you need to do is setup an account on a 3rd party photo hosting site, I use postimages.org but there’s are lots out there.
    Upload your photo you’d like to post to that photo hosting website
    The photo hosting website will have a way to share a link to your photo, copy or somehow make note of that link
    Here on our forum, when composing a new message/reply, click on the photo icon, a dialog box will pop up asking for the link to your photo, enter the link you saved from the step above, save all and post your message.
     
    Anytime point out if I’m missing a step?
     
    Clumsy thick fingered attempt to point out image link icon;

    How many people are interested in a play about Hepburn (other than the author)?

    You can't blame his parents for that. They named him Robert Sargent Shriver, Jr.
     
    The parents had their own peculiarity in this area -- they were both named Shriver. (Cousins, I think. Like FDR and Eleanor.)

    Whitman got a reaction from bigvalboy in My 5,000th Post!!!   
    From what I was told -- so, secondhand info here -- he got a time-out, then decided not to return once the time-out was over.

    Or at least made someone gnash his teeth.

    It's probably just a time-out. I noticed once when jjkrkwood was timed out that he was gone from the Notable Members list, but reappeared once the time-out ended.

    Did you guys (or should I say yinz) do something to make him feel unwelcome? Or do you suppose he was lurking here and discovered how you felt about him there? I admit, I got curious about how, exactly, he was driving yinz crazy and went to look, but the first thing I bumped into was his post announcing that he was taking a hike from there. Literally:
     
    "Thanks for the short membership but considering how warm it is out there I'd rather go hiking (something we all should do more often ) instead of posting on here."
     
    Who'd have guessed!!? Ole marylander1940 thinks hiking is better than posting on an internet message board.

    I'd still bet it's just a time-out … but remember those worries about Y2K? …
     
    Would computers be able to handle the rollover from 1999 into 2000 without going *!#blooey#!* -- disrupting lives, livelihoods, whole economies?

    Whitman got a reaction from liubit in Arthritis and Cannabis   
    @Avalon, in another thread, you mentioned that you have arthritis in your knees and that you are homebound. If the arthritis is the reason for being homebound, I hope you are treating it with more than over-the-counter Ibuprofen.
     
    At a minimum, there are prescription anti-inflammatories that might give you more relief.
     
    In addition, there's viscosupplementation -- hyaluronan injections directly into the joint. These provided enormous relief to my mother when she was in her 90s, felt it was too late for knee replacement surgery, but was determined to stay on her feet. The hyaluronan (there are different versions of it, different brand name) acts like a shock absorber, lubricating your joints to reduce osteoarthritis symptoms.
     
    And then there's the knee replacement option.
     
    Sorry if you've elaborated on your situation in other threads I've missed, and if this advice misses the mark, but I wanted to mention options that I have seen work, and say that I hope you are actively working with a doctor -- a specialist -- to deal with an issue as severe and limiting as you've described.
