If you think of anything else, please cut and paste dot points & add your own:

 

1) unable to upload pics

 

2) unable to have a conversation or discussion as the reply is not time sensitive and replies are all over the place

I can post pics in here, not sure for sellers if that's what you meant and if you go to the far RHS at the top of any thread/group you want to follow you can Float it so it stays pinned for you.

You can sort newest to oldest and unless you are replying on a really old thread that can't be bumped your post should fall into place under the one you answered like this one will

I don't like the format, but I doubt it's going to change.

edited to say: Your post is a great idea, and I will no doubt be back with some bullet points LOL

I just attempted to copy and paste a pic and it worked fine, although a bit slow. Also, while I haven't tried it, the "expand toolbar" at far right  opens and "insert video" is an option.

 

The first thing I had to learn was to make sure I was posting in Community Spirit.

Twyn I owe you an apology - the date thing on the boards IS frustrating, just realised what you meant. It shows the time you replied but puts in the  latest time order, so my answer to a poster would be placed above that post as my answer came minutes later ??????

 

CONFUSED ------ Change order by clicking on the thread oldest to newest - that sorted out the time problem.

With a group that I'm in pics can be posted, as can saved screenshots and emojis etc, but it seems that in the general boards those abilities have disappeared into cyberspace. Not sure if it can be done in Community Spirit since I rarely venture there.

Just a C & P from the net.

But no way to import a photo or anything from your hard drive.

imastawka, I was able to screenshot and crop and copy this image from my hard drive.

However, I had it open in my image editing software and copied it from that, rather than trying to copy a file in a folder on my computer. I'll give that a go.

Hmm. It looks as though that does work. Is the emoticon above rendering properly for you?

The icon for inserting a picture does seem to be missing from the posting options.

 

However, you should still be able to paste a screenshot directly into your post as above.

 

If you are using Windows 10, try using the Windows key-Shift-S to open the screenshot utility. Use the cursor to select an area of the screen to copy to your clipboard. Then paste the image directly into your post using Control-V.
