    Is it just me and my browser (Safari) or are others having this problem?  Whenever a photo that is wider than the message box is posted on the forum, the text that is included becomes as wide as the photo and, like the right hand side of the photo, disappears off the right hand side of the page.  Can't see any way to scroll past the border.

    The more I use this new website, the more I like the old one.

    It's in the wrap around setting but I've never been able to get it to change.  You can use smaller pictures or what do what I do.  I load the picture first then write in the text keeping it in the box.

    Not sure on the auto format -- after I paste a picture into the message box - I click and resize the image to fit the box by dragging the images corners - that maybe what keeps the text inside the box.

    I found a workaround for this problem. If you highlight the text in the post with your mouse ALL text will be highlighted even though it's invisible. I then copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) into Notepad or any text editor and voila, all text is visible.
    Awkward? yes, annoying? not really, there are more annoying things in this world to care about....
