Is it possible to do a draft predictor game? Once the lottery is completed, each person would pick the prospect each team drafts, in their respective order. There would be an additional option of "trade pick" which you could get credit making the correct pick (regardless of who they actually select) but you would get bonus points if you can pick the other team that is the counterpart of the trade. Seems like it might fit in the same model as the gamepicker... could be fun...

we actually have that and just need to re-introduce it. Was thinking of adding the suggested Prospect Picker too: list best prospects regardless of draft order.

What's going on with this? Still happening?

Yes for people who are dummies about computers like me--why isnt their a file attachment? I just post links to picture and videos because I havent figured it out but with mail its simple--simply attach the file.

When I hit picture or youtube here it just comes out as letters.

1) Point your mouse arrow at the beginning of the text, link or url (including youtube url) that you want to copy.



2) Click your left mouse button and hold it down.



3) While holding the left mouse button, drag your arrow to the end of the text, link or url that you want to copy.



4) Release the button. The text, link or url should be highlighted, as above. Move your mouse arrow to the icons entitiled "URL", "Image", "Quote" or "Youtube". Click any of those icons once, and you will see that your highlighted text will be "bracketed" by two bundles of text. At the beginning it will read [url ], [img ], [quote ] or [YouTube ] and at the end it will read[/url ], [/img ], [/quote ] or [/YouTube ].

The forums coding will then recognize the text between the two bundles as either a URL, Image, Quote or Youtube clip, depending on what you chose.

Click "Reply" or "Post new reply" and your post will appear, with the appropriate formatting.



Examples.

1.

An address of an image was found by right-clicking the image, selecting properties and copying and pasting the text entitled Address(URL). The text looks like this:

http://myfitgeek.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/computer_geek.jpg.

If I then highlight that url with my mouse and select the "Image" button, it will look like this

[ img]http://myfitgeek.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/computer_geek.jpg[/img ].

Click "Reply" or "Post new reply" and the image would then appear, like this.



2.

I wish to insert a quote from another poster. I copy/paste their text. It will look like this.

If I highlight all that text, then click the "Quote" button, it will look like this.

I wish to post a youtube video highlighting the wonderful accompishments of the future HOF, Andrew Bynum. I go to Youtube and find the appropriate clip. I then copy/paste the address of the clip. It looks like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETI94nHUu08.

I then highlight this URL with my mouse and click the "Youtube" button. In my posting window it will appear as

[YouTube ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETI94nHUu08[/YouTube ].

Once I click "Reply" or "Post new reply", it will appear like this:



Thus endeth the lesson.
