Dear Mr. Administrator/Moderator,
You said that the photo uploading has been restored. But clearly there are size limitations now as FlyerInOKC has mentioned that we never had to deal with before. So are we to understand that this is the way it's going to be or will there be revisions that will allow us to post pics without size restrictions? Thanks for your time...

Hi, not seeing the "heartbeat" section (most active threads). Using IE11.

Unless I am missing something, is there still an option of 'My Subscribed Forum'? Before, I had a list of the topics I enjoyed reading, and now it appears that I have to scroll through each 'sub-category' and look for what I want. I did get to it through my old saved link, but the page up and down is fine, but I must scroll really far to the right to see what is being talked about. Hopefully my picture explains it. I am referring to the sliding bar for example at the bottom of the webpage.

Ok , so yes indeed we can upload pictures , but as FlyerInOKC and Vincent have said , the resizing thing is a bit of a drag and something we didn't need to do with the old RCU . Another thing of note here ; on the old RCU , you were able to tailor the front page to your liking such that I was able to collapse the listings for things like "RC cars , trucks , and buggies" so that when I scroll down the front page all I saw was the RC airplane subforums . Now , if I click on the little collapse icon on a subtopic I want to skip over , sure it does collapse that subtopic right until I do any other action (like click on some engine related topic , for ex) and then the hidden material comes right back . Is this a broken feature or will I have to scroll past all the car , rocket , and drone subforums I never read just to get to the engines and marketplace subforums which I do read , each and every time I visit RCU ?

test picture #2 , this is a Webra .40 sized four stroke with a belt driven rotary valve induction system (no camshaft or poppet valves in this four stroke) ......

I have asked tech if they're able to put the Attachment button back onto Quick Reply.

UPDATE: The software RCU is now on does not allow attachments from Quick Reply.

Hi IBJoel ,

Just curious if you read my post , and if so , am I doing something wrong with the ability to minimize the unwanted subforums or is something broken with that functionality ? Like I said earlier , if I click on the minimize icon the subforum does minimize , only to come right back once I click on anything else .

No, that seems to be a bug. We are working on fixing it.

Does this include when you choose "Go Advanced" as your reply option? Also, what browser are you using?

Your subscribed forums are now under "User CP".

Also, thank you for the screenshot. Can you scroll all the way to the right and scroll down to see if there is any bit of text or an image that is forcing the page to be stretched out? Is it occurring on multiple browsers?

IBJoel, will there be an easier way to view multiple pictures in a post rather than backing out each time, then selecting the next pic?

Yes -- there's a plugin that turns the first pic you click on into a gallery with all the pics in that post, and you can swipe right through them all. We'll be adding it as soon as the major issues are ironed out.

Is that the vertical looking icon that is "inline attachments"?

Fireefox (53.0 and prevous version) with Windows 7, going to "Go Advanced" without a quoting a prior post appears to work.

Just click on your ID at the top right corner of the page - it's all there. Found it through sheer exasperation.
