I'd like to continue on with the original thread "Catastrophic Engine Failure ..." as long as that poses no issues.
I read through the Q&A you had included at the link above, but still had this question:
If I have the photos in albums, and I copy/paste the shortcut into the thread, (as opposed to the BB code for an indivudual image), does the 'shortcut' just appear within the thread, or does a thumbnail image appear representing the folder?
(If a thumbnail image appears, and it will be the first image in the folder, then I will place a representative image as the first one in the folder.)
Thanks!
Ed
It sounds like you're trying to create a "Photo Album Index" so to speak, and that sounds like a nice project. This new area is perfect for your experiment because you can craft your project behind closed doors with the help of the BR team.

That can certainly be an article. An article doesn't need to be a step by step how to, it's really anything of great value that the community can benefit from by keeping it on top and not letting it get buried or lost in the archives.

Start something up in the new Construction Zone. Only you and the BR team will be able to see it. Ask questions there and we'll help you as much as we can. I may have some good tricks for you on that one.
