Thanks. I guess it just works on an actual computer. I don't get a "copy image address" option on my tablet I think I can do it, but too busy at the moment avoiding watching any commentary on the "events of the day." Cleaning out my basement seems like a better option if you get my drift.

I went our this morning and left my television tuned to an old movie so my cat could watch it and if there is anyone out there checking on who is watching what, I am guiltless.

Huh? should be simple -

Huh? should be simple - rightclick image out on the internet, choose "Copy image address",

then in the comment editor pick the image pic (sun over the mountains) and past the URL.

You then may want to adjust the image width to max 520 (if you're going to take up full posting width - otherwise choose smaller like 320). The height should adjust automatically.

And then save, of course.

ETA: kinda like Michael already posted just below.(yeah, I read top to bottom)

Thank you Michael! I'll give

Thank you Michael! I'll give that a try. Please do le me know if there are continuing issues. I don't want to increase anyone's workload.

I'm sorry that you've had trouble with the images. Pasting a url is the easiest way to do it. To fix your images, I just found the version at freethoughtblogs, right-clicked, and selected copy image address. Then I pasted that url into the dialog box that you get when you hit the little mountain-scenery icon above.

You can upload photos, but it's a little more complicated. When you create/edit a blog post, there's a place to upload files under the edit box. After you upload, copy the url of the uploaded file into the image dialog box, as you would an external url.

Well, at least now I know why

Well, at least now I know why I can't figure out how to post any pictures or graphics here.

I just link to the image

I just link to the image address for publicly available images, using the image icon in the editing tool.

Dropbox's shares don't support remote image linking, I believe. From your own site it should be fine - if you can post a URL to a page with the images on them, we can suggest what the link should look like. For example, the image in your Firing post is

http://i1.wp.com/freethoughtblogs.com/cobsweb/wp-content/blogs.dir/103/f... - nothing out of the ordinary, and Wordpress to boot.

(I believe the ?w=280 is what dagblog software adds to resize the image - with 1 coordinate, the image is scaled the same in both directions; if it adds both w & h dimensions, it can scale differently horizontally & vertically)

I am glad to be here and that

A sincere taken you for all of you!

Thanks for raising the issue of the graphics as I am struggling with them. I have tried linking from my own site in different ways - from a sub-directory, and from the url within my WordPress install. I have also tried linking to graphics within my dropbox account. I have tried copying and pasting the graphic. All ultimately fail. Problematically, the mechanism asks for a url for the graphic rather than allowing you to upload and link the graphic.

If you would share the appropriate way to include graphics I would sincerely appreciate it.

Thank you for sharing your

Thank you for sharing your interpretation and experience. As I read the various statements of Mjr. General Schwartz, he was not expecting to be removed from command in the middle of the inauguration. He then decided to retire, kind of implying that he would have stayed in the Guard even if he had not been retained as head of the DC Guard.

No replacement has been announced, but for the inauguration, command will pass to his second in command.

librewolf, thanks a lot for

librewolf, thanks a lot for posting at dagblog. We are enjoying your posts. As a moderator, I also appreciate that your work is well-edited. There's an issue with the photos you've been posting though. The image links point to non-existent locations. I fixed them in the post and the previous one, but I'd like to solve the issue to avoid the problem in future posts. What is your process for adding photos?

Well, looks like you are

Well, looks like you are right. This from the ACLU:

Why Are DC Police Keeping Their Body Cameras Off During Inauguration and the Women’s March?

So here we go again. This from Breitbart:

ACLU Warns Police to Turn Body Cams Off During Inauguration Protests but Encourages Activists to Video Cops
