What seems to be the issue? I didn't see anything that would hinder the post between the two images.

When I click modify it randomly adds text size tags to things, puts lots of items all on one line and moves the images around.


Here is what the thread should look like: [size=78%]http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=43980.0[/size]

Does it change the post when you resubmit it, if you weren't to edit it?

Happens occasionally, so I click on the far right icon to clean up any bugs.

Nope. See what it did when I copy and pasted the link? It added 78% size tags...

I PMd you regarding my thought on this, but calavera's post seems to corroborate that to me. I believe it's related to the WYSIWYG editor. But you can go ahead and ignore this post as well. Enjoy.
