·1 month agoThe quotes and apostrophes in her message are being replaced with some random gibberish for some reason. Used to be an HTML issue back in the day, don't know what causes it now. Might be some kind of unicode set error or something?

·1 month ago · EditedIt's just not on her (photo) post It's been on several others. I thought I was the only one out of the loop!
Anyone here had that happen to their posts? What were you trying to say, or.........?

·1 month agoOn the previous forum, I occasionally got an HTML warning before posting and was told to correct it before posting. I ignore it and my post goes through with no obvious changes. I don't know what the warning was referencing. Maybe a glitch in the new forum?

·1 month agoUgh - Bevy needs to give us a means of expanding photos as we had with the previous forum.
If it's the extraneous characters in the title of the post depicted, it can be a font error, corrupted file, etc.
