If I am not mistaken, images used to appear first in critique forum posts followed by text but this seems to now be reversed. Any way to get it back to the way it was?

And they still can if the poster is using external hosting and formats the text that way. http://www.birdphotographers.net/forums/showthread.php?70498-Another-Red-deer for an example where it's in between text. If they are members and upload to the BPN server as an attachment, the will appear after the text by default if they just uplaod it as is. This was even the case with the old version (I looked at a backup copy of the older one I have)

Edit: Using the attachment, the poster can enter the attachment first and then the text if they click the Paper clip and then the filename listed. This places the code
number where they want the image to appear.

FWIW, the more I think about this, the more I am certain that the default (even when BPN was hosting the image) used to be that the image came first in a post. I distinctly remember when BPN first went online that the text came first as it does now, but in the first month or so of operation, someone requested that this be changed (I even remember who that was) and it was changed and remained that way until the last upgrade.

Of course, I may be delusional about this ... anyone else remember it that way?
