    I searched but couldn't find an answer, so here's the question. When I reply to a thread I type out my post then I upload a picture or a link and it puts it above the text or post I was quoting. Then you have to screw around deleting it and reposting which can be problematic if you have multiple pictures and links. What am I doing wrong?

    After uploading, before insterting, try clicking/tapping back on the post where you want it to be (as if you're about to type more, the keyboard will come up), then hit insert and it will insert where ever your |-bar is flashing.

    If you don't have the reply box selected I think it defaults to throwing inserts in at the top of the post, which appears to be the case here

    Or just type in what you want to say first, then insert. Either way works.

    Reread my post, I do type first the insert after and it will still put it above. This morning I quoted Dye about the recaps, I typed my response under his quote the inserted the link below my text and it inserted it above. Then I have to screw around trying to delete it and reinsert it. I'll see how it goes.

    After you upload you picture, but before you size it, you have to establish your cursor where in your post you want the picture to appear. This is how you make it appear above or below your text.

    ....Unless I have a reading comprehension problem too, in which case I'll shut up now. :)

    Well, what I meant was the option you see for "thumbnail" or "full image", like here....
