    Looks like it is very restrictive, except the basics in the "landscape button"

    Seems about the same, restriction wise?

    Go to the "insert media" and put the link in if it's from the interwebs, (it's the little < > thingy) and use the image thingy for images saved on your computer or device.

    Can we come up with a different name than "image thingy"? I was trying out links, but thanks for posting that one.

    It isn't the same for most users here, perhaps in your particular "link" use case you aren't seeing any differences.

    Well sure, it's different, but not more restrictive - which was what you asked.

    Different name? Like what, "landscape button?"

    Well, I tried. I don't work here, ya know?

    You're welcome. As far as grabbing pictures from your device, the "image thingy" is the second one in this screen cap. It looks like a little picture/mountain. It's pretty standard in forums. If you would click it, it should take you to your Pictures folder on your device. The paper clip will also take you to your folders, you can attach images or files from that. I mean, you do have to play around with your particular device to learn this stuff. They aren't all the same.
