Here is what you had:

Looks like you had an extra enclosing "url", "/url" pair, Blueskies123. The following will just display the picture.

The error message is from using the wrong link format. I'm guessing you have to be logged in to see that box, but you'll want the BBCode option.

#Cruncher explained this in his post, but I'll repeat it from a different perspective. (This technique doesn't use anything from the imgur image link box.)

Without logging in, I can click on an image, right-click --> Copy image address (or Copy link address). Then paste that address in a new browser tab to view only the image.

The image link looks like this:

Code: Select all

http://i.imgur.com/fEhfgbM.png
Then, select the entire link and click on the image icon (looks like a picture) in the post editing menu. You get this (which is BBCode format):

The bulleted list is not easy to understand. To get a plain bulleted list, click on the list icon without the numbers. Each item needs to start with the "*" bullet icon, which is "[*]" in the list.

That's about all you can do, as anything other than "A", "a", or "1" results in a plain bulleted list. (There may be other combinations, but it's very limited.)

Hi PI, thanks for that. But i was testing a chrone plugin recommended by ladygeek somewhere, that takes the url and automatically puts it into various bb or html formats, automatically creating the link text. Apparently it works better in firefox. The "url=" style gets cumbersome at times. I'm always having a hard time clicking just in the right place to insert the url. 😄

I also had some trouble getting the plugin to work in Chrome, but LadyGeek gave me some assistance, and it works for me like a champ now in Chrome. Here's the format code I used in my plugin setup:

Incidentally, the equivalent Add-on for Firefox is Link Text and Location Copier. It works a bit differently in that you use the context menu (right-click) to select the formatting.

In addition, my employer-sponsored retirement plan provides access to a self-directed brokerage account at Schwab, but the choices there are stupefyingly great, so not attempting to list here.

Questions:
1. What are the best choices to result in a more manageable number of products?

2. What are the most appropriate products for our life-status and goals?

Any reason you're quoting a bunch of posts? What do you need help with?

Thanks, FiveK. Although most of terminology used in that post is way over my head, I got the gist of it: that is tables don't work in our current software. Back to the text and tabs now. Thanks again.

For a bulleted list:
  • Click "List"
  • Type * inside [] followed by the text for each item in your list
  • Click "List" again to end the list
For an ordered list:
  1. Do the same as above, except click "List="
  2. Put a "1" after the =
  3. You still use a * in [] for each item
  4. the software knows to increment each item
Doing the same as above except with an "a" instead of a "1" will give:
  1. An alphabetical list

^^^ The BBCode help file is available when editing a post.

In the right side section under Smilies, look for "BBCode is ON" and click on the link.

Tip: Open that link in a new window to avoid overwriting your new post. Or, just hit the browser's back button to get back to the post you were editing.
