In my Thread Display Options I have "Show images" selected. Looking at today's posts many images are links instead of images. Older posts show the images.

Is this the way the new display will be, links to images instead of seeing the shot in the post, or is this a setting I or the admin can change, or is it the way they're added to the post?

A site upgrade is in progress as per the first post in this thread. Once it is complete, I am sure that everything will be back to "normal".

I suppose you're still working on it but, the 'Real Name' is currently missing.

theres quite a bit still missing... it will be a long process to get things back 100% to where they were... in time though it will be done.

Abel, one thing to add to your list, (unless you happen to like it this way) is that at the top of a post, in the blue line, the post number reads (#13), where before I think it was just 13???
