Thanks for the info, Patrice. Will the last several days of posts be restored? I hang out in challenges and we're missing the last 3 or 4 days of posts in those forums.

Same with Vintage, but I was able to post a new thread there. I had responded to a new thread about a motor and someone else had asked a question that I wanted to find out how the OP responded, but it wasn't there.

New way to post pictures on new format?
 
I went to the QB help center to see if there are new instructions for posting pictures and there is nothing. I am trying to learn.
All the new picture icon asks for is a URL, well pictures on my PC aren't URLs.

Please, where will I find instructions for the new format? I am not computer savvy.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Ask your web support team to consider something other than VB, like ElkArte which is free and open source and doesn't pull surprises like this. We use it for all the forums we manage.

I am not going to even try to post anything but text until they fix the board, sorry.

Agreed - green font is hard to read even with zoom
 
I appreciate the Quilting Board very much. It has helped me soooo much over the years.

I hate to complain, but I want to agree that the green color and font is now very hard to read. My computer is new and I'm on windows 10. The wording is fuzzy with that color.

The last few years before I retired, I was seeing software move to lighter colors. I'm not sure of the reason, but it really caused problems with being able to read the computer.

Thank you for listening. And thanks again for all of your work.

There are a bunch of posts that have gone missing, while they are "testing functionality" I haven't tried to post a picture, but can only get the "formatting and inserting icons" when I edit a post.

PatriceJ tried earlier and said that you have to "manage attachments" rather than "insert" an image, but I can't get to attachments even going advanced.

Thank you! Making the font larger really helped me be able to see it. The contrast isn't good, but at least the font is larger.

Thanks for the suggestions on how to enlarge the font. That does help. Sorry for the double message. I didn't see my reply and though I had not sent it.

I agree". New format is way too confusing.

New Format Surprise
 
opened today for first time and wow! what happened? the whole screen page seems to have shrunk, making it hard to read and the picutres miniscule. Is there a way to enlarge it to full screen? If not, I find it hard to read and hard on my eyes. Help please!
