John, I think when you hit the quote button and the reply to thread box comes up, you can high-lite everything between the IMGs (including the brackets) and that should erase the picture.

I saw that. I think only a moderator can edit another's post, so Bill must be lookn' out for you.

Yup. Too quick on the draw, I guess.

What I do is to highlight what I want and cut it out by pressing control and C at the same time.

Then I put the blinking cursor where I want my quote to go.

Then I paste it into what I am posting by pressing control and V.

Then you type right bracket, [ then QUOTE then left bracket ] in front of it, and the same thing with / before the word QUOTE after it. It looks like this w/o the spaces: [ QUOTE ] followed by the text then [ /QUOTE ]

Hope this helps.

Or -- just highlight and (right click) to copy the text you want to quote, press the reply button, press the quote button and (right click) paste your text at the cursor.

Many roads lead to the same place :)
