Forum Bug?

The 'Image' button doesn't seem to be the full quid in some of the forums (including this one - 'Subnautica Bug Reporting' and also the 'Ideas and Suggestion' forum).
The problem is that when you click on the 'Image' icon it doesn't allow you to browse image files. Drag and drop doesn't seem to work either.
Hmm...

I have seen this before. The problem seems to come and go. Very frustrating!!

@garath cheers.

It seems to still let you paste an image's html address.

To bad I don't have any clue how to find this on my saved images.

Personally, when it doesn't seem to let me post images by attaching them, I just don't post images at all. It's just too much work. If you want to give it a try, I think you would have to first upload your images to some third-party site that everyone could see.

Then, I think you can just right click on an online image to get the web address of the image.

Again, personally, when I have trouble uploading images using just the normal forum stuff--when it works--then I just don't upload images at all because I'm too lazy.

I've been fooling about with this just now. It seems a tolerable work-around is to:
a) Start to 'leave a comment' in a General Discussions thread where it actually does let you browse your drive for pics.
b) Then cut and paste the html code, it comes up with, into a thread you're really trying to write
c) Mutter a short prayer to the gods of the deep...
