OP
I've been thinking of working on that, which is part of the reason for this poll. I'd ask what everyone wanted to learn but it's hard to ask about something you don't know exists. I'm not implying I have the answers but I might be able to find them.
OP
Do you mean these icons?
I see you already know how to use italics, and probably bold and underline. What others would you like to know about?

Yes!
Most of the others I'd probably use so seldom I'd forget how! I was 2nd out of 20 some students using Excel 20 years ago when I learned it. I haven't used it since and doubt if I could today if I had too. Some knowledge sticks with me other kinds not some much. When I was working for EMC I'd do the same thing every day for 8 hours.
After 3 months out due to medical reasons I went back to work sat down at a PC and drew a complete blank! I spent the rest of the shift "relearning" my job! I need reference material to jog my memory.
Did the test work? Sorry, I tried to ignore it but telling me to ignore it kept me from being able to ignore it.
No, it didn't. I'll continue just copying and pasting photos.
Not exactly sure what your test was, but my (Android) system is a free app called PhotoCompress. I take any picture or screenshot that I want to upload within the limitations of SB, and if I'd like to have it in my post as a picture rather than just a thumbnail, I use the app to resize it to a size that won't overwhelm the screen for those reading SB on a computer. 250-800 pixels wide, depending upon how much detail I want to retain.
If this doesn't relate to your "test", then just ignore me.
I used the code linked above.
[image=200]dl.dropbox.com/s/b72k39i9z1lcjh5/error_403.jpg[/image]
By using the parameter = and a number, the image width will be set the number used as width with automatic height.
NOTE: This code does not actually resize the image, it will only set the display width parameter for hot-linked images.
It gave me a small icon instead. When I copy and paste, Scubaboard automatically resizes each photo to 800 wide.

Looks like success to me! FYI: this is the code the menu selection inserted for you:
Code:
[image=200]dl.dropbox.com/s/b72k39i9z1lcjh5/error_403.jpg[/image]If I simply copy/paste the photo or use the
img code it works fine. If I add the image=200 I only get a small icon. No biggie, as Scubaboard automatically resizes the image for me.
