Great question though ... I had to look it up to see what was going on

To be safe, I think we'll leave the setting as is for the time being, even though this conflicts with images in our own gallery. In your case, you still can link to an image in the FT Gallery, as long as you don't click through to the full image ... not an ideal option, but workable for now at least.

Thanks for pointing this out.
Thanks for the answer. It's not the ideal solution, since the larger screenshots are better to illustrate problems with web pages encountered on FT, but putting in the smaller size and a link to the larger size (since the embedded image in the post isn't clickable, although I haven't tried using the entire image as a clickable link - I'd have to brush up on my BBCode first to see if it's possible without using HTML) is an okay workaround for now.
