I upload an image using TPU Image hosting.
I them copy and paste the IMG line into Quick Reply.
If I then click on Go Advanced, when the new page displays it has changed the IMG tags to URL tags in the editing box.
The image in the preview looks like it would using the IMG tags, but if I do not change it back to IMG tags before submitting, it uses the URL tags in the post.
This happens to me every time I perform the above steps.

Not a big deal, just thought I would mention it. :toast:

Yes, since the IMG line is in the clipboard it's a simple thing to just highlight the URL line and paste over it. I just wanted to report the issue to make everyone aware of it.

Probably has to do with the img tags being replaced with url tags in quotes. Otherwise you'd have 20 huge and identical pics on a page due to people quoting eachother.

Paste the IMG line when you already are in the advanced window. That should do the trick.

I know that MRCL, it's just that if someone starts a post in Quick Reply and adds images that use IMG tags, they should be aware that the tags will be changed to URLs when they move to the advanced page (even though the preview looks as it should).

Just a heads up.

You're right. Happened to me a few times, like wtf is going on, till I realised what happened.

I didn't post in this thread as I verified it in the more recent one.
Anyway, yes it is fixed.
