content: This has been broken for years (maybe closer to a decade soon?) and for some mystical reason, the admins simply can't get it either fixed or removed, so this broken feature creates endless confusion and threads like this.

content: In the General Technical Chat forum there is a long, sticky thread on this subject. There seems to be a number of ways that people have devised to work around this problem which is apparently known to the powers that be.I added my own, nine step method to that long list. It is post #69 there. But you may like one of the other methods better. Good luck.https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/how-to-make-decent-photographs-for-forum-postsarticlespublications/
