I had to check, here is an example with some alt text.
(and I know this, but shame on me, I'm neither using it on Twitter nor on our main page )

And thanks, I fixed the link.

Ah, you use the ATTACH tag not the IMG tag.

Edit: Or not...

Edit2: Well, seems like attaching the image *is* the only way.

So you have to actually upload the file to civfanatics, you cannot add an alt text to a hotlinked image?

 

[Elephantium]

Yep, seems like it

This might be a Xenforo bug. Or a security setting?

I think it's most likely an oversight.
Not sure if I could edit this myself .

How do you even set image size on this forum

 

[The_J]

They're automatically scaled, unless I'm gravely mistaken.

 

[MysticWind]

But what if you want to resize them to be smaller or larger

Double-Click on image and a resize picture prompt will be there
edit: doesn't seem to work........at least with youtube images
edit2: Nope, IMG width= is broken

Looks like this is another job for attaching images to posts.

 

[MysticWind]

Ah, it works. But wouldn't this present problems in the long run if people attach a lot of large images?

There are free sites where you can resize large images so they're smaller. There are times when some images here end up very large anyway, so using the spoiler tags would be the courteous thing to do.

I think the amount of people who need to have a picture exactly resized and alt-texted is not that high, so no, I'm not that concerned.

Still getting random Invalid_Image_Request when i click the back button in the browser, am i the only one getting this? Is it a problem with Firefox? No amount of Google-ing has gotten me any answers......and it now happens so regularyly that it's getting really annoying. Just posting in case anyone else has gotten this, unless i am alone and the only one with this problem...

 

[The_J]

Can you make a screenshot how this looks?

I'm on Firefox too, but I normally don't use the back button very often.

mmhh.... okay, not too much info on there.
Are these attachments, which might be broken, or something from the site layout?
