C'mon, no one reads instructions!

That's why I thought I would just throw it out there in a post. Hoping some would see it and get a little edgimication!

But after reading Jims info about the browsers, maybe it's my old machine and my older version of Explorer.

Same w/ Descriptions. Re-read them after you receive the Busted Globe. In Description it said it had been Glued Together!


So true, we have all been there. It's not a good feeling!

This is really stupid, spacing depends on the size of you monitor. Have a small monitor and everything will be all in one long line down the left side.

Steve, I can see the entire page and pictures are vertical. I never have to scroll side to side. Here is my screen grab of same thread.

Does it?
Then why these words from Jim?

Steve is right that members need to remember to separate the IMG code lines to avoid the piggy-back issue that causes side-scrolling. Not every device or browser will display the images side-to-side like that even when the code is not separated by a space or new line.


No need answer. It doesn't matter. It obviously doesn't affect everyone. I just threw it out there and now that many more people will put spaces in which will reduce the number of intances in the future.
No biggy!! Just a little annoying.

Putting in a blank space or a blank line between each 3rd party hosted image code line is a best practice recommendation. You don't have to do it, but you get what you get. Like not using a turn signal or not brushing your teeth. You can get by without doing them, but you get what you get later on at some point.

Spacing between images is partly about the device and software that viewers are using. It is more about doing things in a way so that all viewers will see the pictures in an acceptable way.

Like Maybe posting all images UPRIGHT. As proven by lack of EDITING, VERY FEW will try to correct the images.
Some must be afraid of trying to Edit a post/reply [you have 10 HOURS to Edit] they will just post again.
