Topic: Links
Hola! I'm still feeling my way through the ins and outs of publishing on the site. Am I correct when I say there's no allowance for making links in a story? My manuscripts have links to pictures and such online.

The TNBW editor can handle pictures easily. You have to make sure it is sized properly and ready for insertion. Then go to the little "picture" icon at the top of the editing window. When you click it, you have three tabs. The first tab is the easiest. You simply seasrch on your computer for the picture and follow the prompts. The second method involves hosting your picture offsite. Then you insert the URL for that picture into the box and click OK.
The first method hosts the picture on the TNBW server, so be careful how big it is and how many you put up there. Personally, I have a web site of my own where I host my pictures and only provide the URL to it in my postings.
Almost midnight here in EST, so I am going to shut down and join the family.

Re: Links
Too bad tnbw doesn't host pictures for inside forum posts (as far as I know).

Re: Links
True. We can only post pictures that are hosted elsewhere on a forum post.

Re: Links
Hmm, not really doing it for me so I just did this:
Check out the photo of a bananaquit ( https://birdsoftheworld.org/bow/species … troduction ). How cute is that little guy? Makes me think of corn flakes, for some reason. I haven’t met a critter in Costa Rica yet who isn’t at least slightly lovable, for one reason or another. Simply being utilitarian is enough for me to appreciate an animal who may look like it’s from outer space. It wasn’t their fault (indeed, it was their strength) the black-ctenosaur ( https://www.anywhere.com/flora-fauna/re … -ctenosaur ) looks like the Creature from the Black Lagoon ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lM1o1xe5FGE ).
O well, it'll have to do.
