Don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but if you post an img link with a space in the file name:

ex: http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/flyin stealthsimv.JPG

the link will not work. I discovered this when I nominated this shot from mustang666, and when I tried to post one for EDIT THIS.
Didn't see this tidbit in the recent past posts so thought I would bring it to light. Wink

It will work if you fill the space with %20 like this:

The answer is to save images without spaces in the file names. Use a hyphen or underscore to separate words if you wish.

I nearly became desperate - had the same problem but couldn't manage to find the fault... Thank's Hagar!

That's one good shot.

"Politics" is made up of two words, "Poli", which is Greek for "many", and "tics", which are blood sucking insects. - Gore Vidal
