The URL blues has been with us for some time and we certainly don't want to discourage picture posters.

But having a tag defining that a certain post contains images is certainly handy IMO. An example: in the recent M8 back and forths, sometimes people post images to illustrate their point. Adding a tag to the subject in that case, makes it all a bit easier to not delete it right away. After all: it surely can't be that complicated and time consuming to type 4 characters more in the subject line, or to add < and > beofre and after an URL. ;-) Philippe Op 20-nov-06, om 23:14 heeft G Hopkinson het volgende geschreven: > Thanks Philippe, understood and I support Daniel's suggestion too. > To misquote WS, I think that these things are more honoured in the > breech than the observance ;-) > OT is probably the classic caveat for this forum, bless its > rambling nature. > > Now to continue a significant discussion.
