Attachments - specifically images

Is it possible to attach a full sized image to a post, ie. it will display like a linked image, but has been uploaded from your local machine?

If so, how is it done?

No, it's not possible, the only way to get a full-size image is to link to something on the web. That's easy enough to manufacture, though, just use files2net. :) I've started doing that heaps since the boss and Rich recreated it.

Another question (not related but I didn't want to start another thread).

Is there any trick to digging? The "Archived Forums" seem to be limited to only major events, and I can only get 500 results back if I search for a user's posts, which is obviously inadequate as most regular posters are way over that.

I figure I'm missing something well obvious here.

Well digging's straightforward - you just post in an old thread and it comes back up to the top of the pile.

The Archived Forums are only major events, each forum can be searched in itself (using the "Search this forum" tool in the top left of that forum sub-window), and the easiest way to find what you're looking for is to use search-specific words. Though of course that doesn't work if it's a one-liner with "it is" in it, because no word shorter than 4 letters can be searched upon.

I guess what I was getting at had more to do with randomly browsing really old threads, rather than looking for anything specific. Thanks anyway.
