    Ref. Virtual Partner goes back in time

    To insert an image, just copy/paste, like this screenshot ....

    However, it's not clear how to use the button at thh top. The Insert/edit link is straighforward but Insert/edit image or video ..... 

    Ref. this link https://www.plotaroute.com/posts/2972/D/1

    If you need to share one in future you would need to save it somewhere that can be accessed over the web and enter the link to the image in the "Source" field when clicking on Insert image. You can also send it to us using our Contact Us page.

    So, to insert an image I have on my website, I clicked the Insert/edit image button like so ...

    So, not sure how to do it! Maube some Help doumentation could be added to make the process a bit cleaerer ...

    I presume the limitation of the Forum is such that we can't directly upload or attach an image or file?

    I agree, some tips would probably be helpful, sorry! If you use the Insert/edit image option, you need to include a link to an image (e.g. a jpg, gif or png) - the example you gave below didn't work because you used a link to an html page that had a pointer to the position of the image on the page, not the URL of the actual image itself.

    works below (Test Image via Insert Link).

    Insert/edit image does not .... even though it (both actually, even the first example I used) use the same

    (Right click the Test Image, Copy image address).

    So still confused!

    OOps, just seen /index.html#img=002-04,%20The%20Three%20Shires%20Way,%2005-10-08.jpg

    Another test

    OK, got it. But it's far simple to just copy paste!! (although the chaging of the imaghe size must be done first)
