Reply Box Missing On Some Threads

[1sailor]

A couple of days ago I noticed that when I tried to reply to a thread with a pic it would not allow me to "go advanced" in order to post a pic. It's been about 3 days now and still the same. Seems to work okay on any other thread but not when replying to "Show me some 100 year old guns". It just gives me black squares and shows me other peoples pics. Anyone know what's up or is it me?

It works just fine - but because of the size of some of the posted pictures, when you hit the REPLY button, you will have to scroll to the RIGHT to see the reply box.

The scroll tool is where the RED arrow is in the pic below. Click and drag with your mouse.

Bottom Line-
ANY TIME you see a gray screen after you click "Reply" or "Go Advanced", Look at the bottom line for a SCROLL Bar.

When a post contains a very large pic, the software resizes it to a reasonable size for viewing in the thread.
However, if you click "Post Reply" or "Go Advanced" on the Quick Reply window, the large pics revert to full size and you must look for the Scroll Bar at the bottom of the page.

I posted a large pic here that reverts to the large size and creates the Scroll Bar at bottom.

Try It. Click "Post Reply" or "Go Advanced"--------

Thanks guys. I wondered if it had something to do with all the pics. I also have a 10 year old desktop computer so it does strange things sometimes also.
