You can't post images from your local harddrive, no one else is able to see them.

You would to find somewhere on the net to upload the image and then refer to the image from that location. Or you can just paste the text so we can read it.

For what it's worth, I just posted a thread with that exact subject line as a test; worked fine for me. I then deleted the thread in case you'd like to try again.

This is what I was getting while Creating a new Post in MD
******************************************************************
FYI
We're sorry, but your post appears to contain abbreviations that we don't like people to use at the Ranch. Because JavaRanch is an international forum, many of our members are not native English speakers. For that reason, it's important that we all try to write clear, standard English, and avoid abbreviations and SMS shortcuts. See here for more of an explanation. Thanks for understanding.
If the abbreviation occurs within code, you can use code tags to post it successfully.

The specific error message is: 'u' is a silly English abbreviation; use 'you' instead.

Well, the error message is pretty clear, I think; the software is trying to filter out SMS abbreviations, and that letter "ewe" appearing by itself is one of the words it wants to remove.

Which means that you *should* have been able to use "US" (without the dots).
