I might have an old account but i am a new poster. I also only use my iPhone & iPad to surf the net. That being said, can I "post" pictures from these devices? How do I post a sig pic? What does the helicopter emoticon mean? Why am I being accused of being an "alter" by most on the sec rant on one of my first post? Sorry for being such a newb to all you vets of TD, I'm new to posting on boards period. I just wanna fit in, I kid I kid. But for real I do......

What does the helicopter emoticon mean?


"Black helicopters is a term which became popular in the United States militia movement and its associated political circles in the 1990s as a symbol and warning sign of an alleged conspiratorial military takeover of the United States, though it has also been associated with men in black and similar conspiracies..."

So basically the helicopter emoticon insinuates that there's a conspiracy or something fishy going on or an investigation taking place or soon to take place.

Common practice by this board to every new poster. Just roll with it.



As far as posting pics from your phone or ipad, I can't help you with that.

You post pics from an iPhone like you would on any computer. Google image, then click the image of your choice. Copy the image url and you can:

1. Paste into the message box, then highlight, then click the img button to the right.
Or
2. Click the img button, delete the https://, then paste the url.


When posting from an iPad, you can google image and click the image you want. Instead of being able to copy the url from the address bar, you have to hold your finger on the image itself. You will then be asked to Save Image or Copy. Click copy. Then follow step 2 listed above.

This also works on images on a page, iPhone or iPad.

First thing you should have done is start a name change request.
