Big brother is watching you
I just noticed that you can spy on what another user is doing in his member page. While this might be a nice idea in general, is it possible to disable this?
Also, is it possible to attach images AND show them at full size, somehow, instead of just as a preview pic? Or do you really need to link to an offsite image for that?

In your User CP under Other Edit Options there is a setting for privacy. Try setting yours to "invisible". I think this will disable that view. Mindi, please correct me if I'm wrong.

First be sure you are not in "quick reply" mode, then use the attachment icon to upload your image file. Then click on the arrow to the right of the attachment icon and select the uploaded image you wish to display. It will appear in your post as [ATTACH]xxxx[/ATTACH], which you can cut and past into whatever part of your post you would like it to appear.
In the attachment window you will find a list of the allowed file types and their maximum sizes.

Yes I believe that's the way that works as it won't show you to regular users that you are even online.

Sure you can but you need to use the insert image button as well as the attachment procedure as the only reason you are seeing the thumbnail is because it recognizes the attachment as an image and wants to show a preview.
