With the old forum it was a single click to insert a picture, link, etc. With the new forum you have to find the [more bbcode] link, click it, then choose your code, doubling the time required.

Any chance we can have a toolbar with the most commonly used actions when posting? It'd save some time and extra clicking.

Also can we have manual subscribe methods? Subscriptions seem to be automatic and random. Sometimes when I reply to a thread I get subscribed, sometimes I don't. I want to be able to choose each time I post.

I'll redesign the editor a bit in the future. Maybe you get to make your own tools configuration in the future...

When you reply using POST TO THREAD, you are NOT automatically followed. When you reply using REPLY or QUOTE, you are asked if you want to follow the thread.

I'll add some options for that logic in the next version.

Using the EMBED IMAGE FROM WEB feature isn't required. I embed photos the old-fashioned way, by pasting the IMG code into a post. It works as well here as it did with vBulletin.
