Hi Andy,

From the rainfall radar, it looks like you are hearing thunder from storms about 40 miles East of you. probably nothing headed your way now, maybe later. I can't hear anything in Dawlish.

Try this...

The best thread for this, andy, would be in the convective discussion. If the mods want to move this, do.

If thunder noise can be heard (from the storm-edge near Bournemouth) from Exeter ( :lol: )

just hit the tree icon when you are composing a message - insert the url to your image in there.

i use http://www.tinypic.com , if i want to quickly host an image - once you have uploaded your image, tinypic will tell you what url to cut and paste into your message.

it starts with "http://"

for example:

http://i7.tinypic.com/212hnbr.jpg

you can also embed an image into a post if you use the url that starts with [ IMG ] - this is also given by tinypic once you upload

e.g

another way of doing it is just to attach the image - under your compose message area you'll see a "file attachments" section. you can just attach your image there.
