It's disabled until Matt gets the database indexed, he's had some big setbacks due to a problem that he can't get a handle on so far, but he's still working on it. He has to index 600,000 posts to make sure the search will work well without shutting down the entire site.

Thanks Quick. I thought maybe I messed up somewhere. I need to know if there is a trick to posting a pic. I have what I believe are parts for reloading shotshells and have no use for them.

There a link to pic posting info in the FAQs. ;)

Here's a brief instruction that I wrote.

Tim


To post pics, you’ll need a host to store the pics for you, open a free account at https://www.gboreloaded.com/mhp/ 

Once you’ve done that, you can upload the pics to your account there following their instructions, then just copy the URL which is just the internet address of the pic, then paste it to any forum post with the [img ]http://yadayada[/img] tags bracketing the URL with no spaces, the pic will show embedded in the post once it’s submitted.
