This is a sign that the Forum needs to incorporate something new
in this space. I have no idea what subject would prompt a more
frequent response. Throw it open to our forum members for
suggestions. A place for photos, or perhaps a place to post photos
of everything or anything, yeah that would be nice. (and be able
to do it without having to go through photobucket or any other
middle men)

Krink, there is an existing way to post stuff without a hosting site. Personally, I find Photobucket easier. The alternative is a little clunky, but it works.

In the advanced editor for posts:

  1. Check Attach File(s)
  2. Click Choose File
  3. Navigate to the picture you want to post from your hard drive
  4. Click Upload File(s)
  5. Click Submit Post
Then:
  1. Open your new post
  2. Click on the Attachment to reveal it at full size
  3. Find the URL of the full size attachment. On a Mac, I Control Click the full sized displayed image and get a popup menu that gives the option "Copy Image Address", Windoze probably has something like it
Then:
  1. Click Edit Post on your new post
  2. Click the Insert/Edit Image button and paste the URL in, or simply use image html tags on each end of the URL without using the editor
  3. Click Submit Post again
I hope you perfect it. I'd like to see your photography.

Example of the screen shot attached and then edited up to full size:

No, the Southern had about 3,000 Microphor flush toilets on their locomotives and cabooses. The N&W had to tear them all out to put the N&W style bag shitters in.
