RE: Major RCU problems for me.
Tell me again what browser and OS you are on again in this thread. Try to upload a picture into this thread with a post. I want to see if it shows or not for me. Try uploading only 1 picture and make it a small one like 10k in filesize.
Also let me know if there are any other technical issues.
With regards to error messages or shut down messages make sure you have your settings such that posting is done inline. Some of the popup code here in the PM section (which we did fix for many) may still bother some setups or popup blockers. Also if the upload of pics doesn't work try checking by disabling your firewall for the test and then see if it works. Once the test is done you can re-enable the firewall.
Answers to this will help us narrow things down for you.
