Dang it, really really annoying when i have written out captions for 15 photos to go with my post, and when i hit submit it comes back with the "you used abbreviations" error and all my attachments and their captions are gone! That error message could surely happen in a way that preserves attachments. (i just mentioned something being "you" shaped - with the letter, and that was why it was flagged, but that's another issue...)

While I have not tried this very often, hitting the "back button" sometimes will retrieve what has been written and keep the work from being lost and maybe even keep the attachments.

What do you have to say for yourself? Hmmm? Anything? And you call yourself a tiny ad.
