Mike,
Just since your awesome changes overnight, and adding the new Batteries section...
It seems that when trying to do a normal reply it is including dragged images as straight text. (not parsing correctly)
It displays correctly while creating the reply but then get a message that it's too long >65,536 chars when trying to post.
So i cut out all the text i could and made the image smaller to get it to post. But if you look at my reply under Lipo Longevity you will see it is displaying the .jpg as ascii :(

How did you do that? You must dropped the image in the wrong place. You need to drop it in the area that says "drop files here to upload". I can tell by the tag it used that you didn't drop it in this area. Where did you drop it?

Hehe, I did it the same way that I posted the pics in the body in my postings in that thread above. But that don't work anymore. Let me see if I can edit it the way you are suggesting.....

Ok fixed it.
Here was my problem. I wasn't able to drag photos into that box, it did nothing. That is why I originally embedded them into the body of the post. However, I turned off all my popup blockers and other browser protection, then was able to use the upload box.
So if you have other whiny people asking later why it don't work, you can point to me ;)

Thanx Mike!
 
Hmmm so the popup blocker must have been blocking part of the javascripts or something. We did have one other person report a similar issue but I tried everything I could and was unable to replicate it. I'll try to figure out what the popup blocker is messing with. Are you using AdBlockPlus? Or is it something else?

Yah, by default I block almost everything, cookies, js, video embedded ads, etc... So most assuredly the other person had something that was blocking the framework on this site. I have to turn all this stuff off whenever I work on a PrestaShop site, or I cant access anything. Sorry I was so slow to figure it out.

Adblocker Plus, Simple Popup Blocker, youtube video adblocker, Better Privacy, just to name a few ;)
I don't do Social media, with YouTube becoming the only exception.
