So. .. i thought i was responding to Ray in a different chain and it showed up here instead. Is that normal? Is everything going to be in one chain, or will it have different headers/threads?


Maybe I'm just not understanding yet. I'll catch up!

Kevin,

This works just like the email list, with one major exception.

Say I start a topic.  You all get a copy.  Every response gets copied to all of us via email.

The major difference is that all of the responses are also made as posts to the forums.

Cool. I assume it's using my real name, though, not my username?

Yep, I covered that one last night.  It's one thing for us to use real names on a private email list, but I didn't think that would be kosher when tied to the forum.  All posts made to this list use screen names - both on the forums, and on these emails.

Do you have plans for an official switch to BU?

We're not quite there yet.  As soon as we get the design issues worked out, we'll make it happen.

Here's a random .gif to see how the forum handles those:
Inline image 1

And for the hell of it, let's test out .jpg as well.
Inline image 2

I dont see them either.  Just an outline box with 'inline image 1' and 'inline image 2' inside the box.

Yeah, it didn't show up in my response email, or on the forums. 

Olan, if that's anything you care to look at my usual method for including an image is to just drag and drop into the email. I'll try adding a the jpeg and gif as attachments to this email.

Nope. It appears that attachments get axed altogether.

Brulo's method worked.  We now have a fantastic rasslin' gif on the forum.

I'll have to look into inline CID image posts.  And right now, attachments don't get any love.  I'll again have to look at those.

Well, it looks like my parser class *DOES* allow for attachments - including embedded images.  But that's gonna require some really nice testing.  Hrm.
