...the image hosting service attached to our host is adding excess url codes to my postings again. If I trim it all down to what is within the bracketed "img" string, the image still comes through, at least when I preview before posting and check the posting afterwards. Let me know if you can't see 'em on your end, please.

What the rest of it does, I do not know. Maybe someone here does? Either way, I admit not trusting the additional coding, so I excise anything outside my image's img string carefully, checking as I go to make sure the image itself remains intact. The preview function allows you to test.

Unless I know what it does, I ain't sending it if I can help it. I have caught some that are obvious adverts on occasion and culled them out, but the non-obvious ones raise red flags with me.

Colour me paranoid, but I'm sensitised to the brotocracy (That word and "bro-ligarchy" are my favourite picks for Word-of-the-year) at the moment. I need not be a conduit for their nefarious purpose. Someone (I wish it was me) came up with the term "Silicon Gilded Age", which I love, too.

GRIN!
