Missing Cat

Gee some of you people are nasty on here, showing dead cat images and making smart arse comments.
Numerella probably wishes she never posted on here.

Numerella I have cats that mean the world to me, I hope your cat returns to you soon:)

Headbonius, what bugs me the most about this, is that you actually stopped on the Monaro Highway, walked up to the dead cat, took a photo, continued on your merry way, went home, uploaded the image to a photo site, and then uploaded that image to RiotACT.

There are a number of different ways you could have done this. A quick check on facebook to compare cats is one? A brief description of the cat is another. I saw a dead cat the other day, but I’ll be buggered if I’m gonna stop and take photos of it, guts and all. A description of the cat would have been enough. In this case, black and white, domestic short haired, and perhaps a better description of where it is located.

Heaven help any person that receives devastating news from you! You’re about as subtle as a brick sh!thouse. And no, the warning didn’t help. You know people will look, that’s why you did it.

God help you.

Dear Numeralla, I traverse the Monaro Highway regularly going down to the Ingeegoodbee river and surrounds. Saw this the other day.

Hope it is not yours

el, nobody is ‘blaming’ anyone, t’was merely an observation.

This site is for everybody. Newbies, not-so-newbies, and the regular rioters who often make a point of being regulars by spelling it out to us ‘newbies’. I’ve been here about a month, and I still have no idea how to post a pic. I’m a member of about half a dozen other forums, and the instructions are clear in those. Jazz is now onto it, and that makes me a HAPPY CHAPPY.

We need simple step-by-step instructions on how to:

1. Post a URL link to an external website
2. Post a pic from an external website (need to tell us the legalities surrounding this)
3. Post a pic from your computer (a personal jpg). If we need to save it to photobucket or something, then we need to know that too.
4. Find page 2, 3, 4 etc of threads (especially if we have forgotten what the title of an old article is?

Ah, and the CODE button for adding URL links only appears when you post a brand new thread. The CODE button doesn’t appear when replying to a thread. Perhaps it should?

Yes, I would have posted this reply in the thread we had last week about the new version of RiotACT, but I can’t for the life of me find it anywhere. I like RiotACT. I have learnt a lot about goings on around Canberra since using it. It can only improve from here when the admin people get the time, amongst their real lives as citizens of this lovely city we live in.

Cheers

I’m not sure that it’s allowed in the comments, Ant.

I know I’ve done it when submitting a new article using the EMBED tag.

actually, i’d like to know how to post actual pictures, rather than a url that someone has to click. On weatherzone, you format it with IMG things around it, and the picture pops up (but is hosted on another site).

It’s a bit much to blame the forum/admins about this…

ok ok , i’ll work on some instructions for posting pictures, but in the interim, the picture you are posting MUST BE ON THE INTERNET FIRST. if you put a link to an image hosted on your PC then it will show up in the preview on your computer because it can find the image locally, however the rest of us will be stuffed.

I think (unless soemthing’s changed) that you have to have the shot hosted on another site, and then give the url to that picture?

ha!, and this from two experienced Rioters!! Imagine how the new folks feel not being able to post a pic?
