I am not familiar with this problem, but it might help if you provided your operating system and browser version. Are you using the 'insert image' button of the editor to deeplink images? Even if it doesn't solve your problem, you still should be able to copy-paste the images in the correct order as you go regardless of the order you deeplink them in.

Member profile Is my signature too big? The site guidelines suggest as a rough rule that a signature should not contain more than 200 words and four pictures each with a maximum pixel height of 200 and a file size of 250k. Instead of building up a huge signature, we recommend using the ‘About me’ section of your user profile where there are no restrictions on picture and text usage. Signatures discussion Using the 'About me' feature Can I change my user name? Members are allowed to change their user name once they reach 500 posts. There is a limit of one user name change every 365 days. There is no option for the members to perform user name changes themselves in the current version of the board -- changes must be requested from a member of Staff via PM. What are the different ranks? How am I promoted to a different rank? Most member user groups (or ranks) are automatically reached by achieving a determined number of posts. Staff members are promoted through an Administrator. The details can be found in the user groups and tags reference topic. Eurobricks user groups and tags - the reference Ranks discussion – for all questions If you are a Female Fan of LEGO and would like to be identified as such with a 'Lady' user group tag, head to this thread to request your tag and access to the exclusive Ladies Lounge! Ladies, stand up! What do the tiny icons under a member's avatar represent? Special tags are given to chosen members on special occasions. There is no exhaustive list of what every tag stands for, although many are awarded for significant contributions or as contest awards. Eurobricks user groups and tags - the reference Tag discussions Can I have a country flag as a tag? Country flags are awarded to Fellows and Staff. What is the short caption under a member’s avatar? Just like tags, personalised titles are awarded to chosen members for noteworthy contributions. Please don’t ask for one, they are given at Staff’s discretion. Titles Q&A Why can’t I upload a new avatar? Make sure your avatar is no bigger than 100x100 pixels and 5 kb. After uploading, reload/refresh your settings page if your new avatar doesn’t show up.

New members Welcome to Eurobricks! Before anything else please familiarise yourself with the site guidelines.

Immature posting behaviour will be investigated by the staff. Target age group discussion Why can’t I see my profile, or other members’ profiles? New members’ accounts have a few restrictions in place to keep spammers and bots from abusing the site. Most noticeably, members can’t view personal profiles (including their own) until they have achieved 10 posts. This restriction is lifted automatically when your post count reaches 10. I can’t view member profiles – this is where all such queries end up. Why can’t I use my Personal Messenger?

Fugazi replied to LEGO Historian's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Ah, it makes sense. Thanks! Great rose window, where is it from? It is certainly eye catching, but I hope your DVD is not mistaken for a choir CD! On the other hand, in a toy store it could look just different enough to stand out. Make sure the font is big enough for LEGO to be read at a distance. -
Well it's been a chatty start to this day, though so far there is little I can tell from the conversations. Except of course that our junior engineer Zachary is eager to help coordinating the night actions, that's a very generous offer! Let's hope you can prove yourself trustworthy first. Yeah well that's it, nothing else seems very suspicious. Sometimes a scumtell is really just a noobtell. But there's still plenty of time for pondering which way the lynch will go tonight.

This discussion more likely belongs to the Pirate forum, but the question has probably already been debated in the POTC theme thread. Please look over there for member input. I will merge this with the Which set should I buy? topic shortly.

I think this can be circumvented by creating an account with Peeron and logging in.

What would it take for you to stop purchasing Lego?
Fugazi replied to Blackicep8ntball's topic in General LEGO Discussion
No worries. I have split your topic from Quality Reference, but it still may wind up there depending on the tangent it takes. To all posters, please try to remain constructive. Endless ranting is a waste of bandwidth! -

Fugazi replied to Blackicep8ntball's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Sorry if your intent has been misinterpreted, Blackicep8ntball. Your initial post is confusing. If you wanted to discuss this: Then it's in the right place in the Quality Reference thread. If you rather wanted to discuss this: Then it may warrant a new thread, but probably still in General Discussion and News. Community is mostly geared towards non-LEGO related topics. -
