I think people need to be more patient. This is a very idiosyncratic site and squeezing all that functionality into a mainstream, yet flexible, framework will take time. Hopefully not too long.
i can see all the forums and threads when logged out but have to log in to create or reply to a thread.
i'm permanently logged in day after day and have to specifically log out to be logged out. I have Safari remember my login details
No, you should be able. The images I just loaded came from my tablet's hard drive. I'm sorry but I can't think why you can't load the jpeg. Do you have a problem with all jpegs
ok, it's just a different looking dialog window. when you click on a file do you get something like this that allows you to specify thumbnail or full image?
