If you want post the picture on our
Facebook page.
No luck. I tried as you said. Not sure what to use for the URL. I tried right-clicking on the posted image and selecting "copy image address," but that didn't work. There should be a better way than having to steal a URL from a pic in a Facebook post, anyway, I think.

I've tried both Dropbox and Google Drive for this and can get neither to work. So maybe it's a PHP thing on the server, like Bob was suggesting.
You have to use an image link to the image file on google drive, not upload the image to the forum.

Did you uncheck the (Retrieve remote file and reference locally) box?
Here is your pic from the FB page.

Here it is using that above-referenced technique:

Hmmmm... didn't work. How 'bout if I remove the iframe references?

I did not. Is that all you did? Here, lemme give it a try...

Okay, that did it. Thanks. I wonder why the retrieve option isn't allowed. :confused:

I used to use VB but switched to Xenforo far superior to VB and made by the developers from VB.
Glad you got it working.

No flux. Not even any solder. The demonstrated spacing between cables minimizes induction of digital crosstalk.
