Agelbert NOTE: What People should know about the Replace
Exclusive OR Instruction (RXOR) and Hackers.

The page contains images that come from the domain
"somecards.com" which is presumably on Symantec's blacklist for
hosting malicious .jpg images.
This blanket approach is too broad, giving false positives, but
you can never be too careful, especially if you are using a
Windows OS.
[/quote]
In regard to ensuring careful attention to potential attacks,
for once, we agree.
I programmed a mainframe air traffic control computer for
several years. I was one of the few who could program in machine
code. That means I am an expert at using Boolean algebra
(denoting a system of algebraic notation used to represent
logical propositions, especially in computing and electronics.)
to talk directly with a computer. What does that have to do with
this discussion?
I know, for example, that the RXOR instruction (that ALL
COMPUTERS USE ROUTINELY) is a toggle switch to completely
reroute a program path a certain way, and then when the same key
sequence is made, reroute it back. THAT is one of the FEW ways
that hackers use to do their thing. Yes, I'm sure you know that.
But I am bringing it to the fore here so readers can understand
that hacking is not some big mysterious thing for math
"wizards"; it is a way for devious individuals of average, not
superior, intelligence to try to STEAL from honest people.
ALL computers MUST run in machine language, regardless of what
"high order" language they use to interface human speak commands
about math and labels to the machine language of binary bit
coding. The only nuances in machine language (bit pattern the
hardware understands) come from the size of a "word" (this
determines where to set the far left bit when a "word" is a
negative number) and whether you use octal or hexadecimal
numbering. But in the end, it's all LA(load accumulator)
followed by other instructions like shift left so many bits or
shift right so many bits, OR, XOR, RXOR, AND, NOT, SA (store in
the accumulator), jump to label contents (address) if flag is
set or don't jump if the flag is not set. etc.
The point is that hackers can ONLY get into your stuff by
pushing some code into a program branch that is routinely used.
THAT'S IT. They make a big deal about "viruses" and "malware"
and "ransomeware" and "phishing" (and so "I am the greatest and
can steal you blind so be afraid" on braggadocio), but it's all
MAINLY about the RXOR.
The RXOR can, by jumping to a subroutine that zeroes out
multiple memory locations, effectively wipe out giant swaths of
code, if that's what you want to do, AND LEAVE NO TRACE that it
was done. But they do that only when they want to crash your
system without leaving evidence you can analyze in a post crash
dump (trigger a Store zeroes instruction to the area the they
reprogrammed).
The BASTARDS that do hacking these days do not really want to
crash your system; they want to WATCH what you do in order to
steal you blind. So, they insert a RXOR to, in nanoseconds,
store some of your activity and rapidly return to your normal
routine.
What they call "worms" and "viruses" are simply a step by step
process to to get into what is called "protected" memory (read
only) and WRITE something into it. That "something" is usually a
RXOR (replace exclusive or) instruction that sends your program
to a quiet key logger and back. They can be real "sophisticated"
and put timers for DOING STUFF at certain dates or when certain
activity is detected. It is all quite entertaining to unethical
bastards that enjoy this sort of thing.

So, yeah, you can be assured that I will ALWAYS be VERY careful.

I have to do exercise for an hour now, but I will retun and show
you how to do that.
At first, I had the same
problem.
HTML http://www.desismileys.com/smileys/desismileys_6656.gif<br
/>Once you see how this works, you will have no problems.
But while you wait, just go to any of my posts with imagers and
hit the "Modify" button. Then look at how I formated the image.
I'll explain more in a little while. [img

Okay, I'm back. I see that you aren't here right now so I'll
just start the discussion for you you to pick up on when you get
back.
As you know, some small smiley images are available just by
pressing a button on the menu just above the text area for a
post or a reply to a post (there are also lots of other cool
tools in the posting menu but I am just discussing images
today).
These are the ones you never size which are easy and quick to
add to posts anywhere in the text:
:) ;) :D ;D >:( :( :o 8) ??? ::) :P :-[ :-X :-\ :-* :'(
Now, when you want to post an image like a jpg or a gif or a png
(etc.) that you have uploaded to the gallery OR you have the
full address of from somewhere else, the situation is different.
For example, below is the address to one of my kitty images:
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-250817124114.png
As you can see by the path of the address, it is an http
(hypertext marking internet protocol address) image in the
renewable revolution forum. It is located in the gallery and has
an image number of 250817124114. It was uploaded as a png
(Portable Network Graphics) type of image.
However, you do not see the image here.
In order to see the image, you need to format it properly. I
will now show you the simple format to use, with a space between
each character, so it will be be displayed here (when you use
this format, do not put any spaces between the characters or it
will not work).
[ i m g ]
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-250817124114.png<br
/>[ / i m g ]
NOW, I will repeat the above without the spaces:
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-250817124114.png
Is all that clear as mud? :D
Now let us go to one of your recent posts and modify the image
properly. But before we do that, there is a trick I took a while
to learn in the gallery that I will pass on to you.
You see, the gallery does NOT give the right image address right
after you upload an image to it.
HTML http://www.coh2.org/images/Smileys/huhsign.gif
Yeah, it gives a link, but not the one you want. ;)
To show you what I mean, I will go to the gallery and grab an
image by copying the link address (see below).
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=1295
That's basically useless. Yes, you can "attach" the image to
post, as you have done, but it doesn't look as good.
So here is what you do:
1. Right Click on the image and select "open link in new tab".
The address in the new tab is not what you are looking for:
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=1295
2. Go to the new tab and Right Click on the image and select
"open link in new tab".
3. The second tab has the address you are looking for.
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-071117175342.jpeg
NOW you can post that image by putting (without the spaces):
[ i m g ]
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-071117175342.jpeg<br
/>[ / i m g ]
Here is the image:
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-071117175342.jpeg
It's too big so I have to size it down somewhat. I do that by
putting a space after the "g" in "img" on the left side and
assigning it a width in pixels. In this case, I assign it a
"width=640".
[img
width=640]
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-071117175342.jpeg[/img]
I can make it as small as I want. Here is the image with a
width=50.
[img
width=50]
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-071117175342.jpeg[/img]
You can now save the image address in a document for posting
here or on the internet. If you post the address in Disqus, you
do not have to format it but you cannot control the size. A
brief description of the image in your document (e.g. Crime does
not pay calculator) will help you be able to find it quickly
when your collection starts building up.
What you did with the Trump baby image, using the "attach"
feature, has this address in the link:
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=134.0;attach=40;image
I looked up that picture and found the address on the internet
(see below):
HTML http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9XFIvswc62s/Vqg2umdA5YI/AAAAAAAAAno/yUTmXzcpJRk/s1600/CJgxC5wUAAED55j%2B%25281%2529.jpg
I will now format the above with [ i m g ]
HTML http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9XFIvswc62s/Vqg2umdA5YI/AAAAAAAAAno/yUTmXzcpJRk/s1600/CJgxC5wUAAED55j%2B%25281%2529.jpg<br
/>[ / i m g ]
HTML http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9XFIvswc62s/Vqg2umdA5YI/AAAAAAAAAno/yUTmXzcpJRk/s1600/CJgxC5wUAAED55j%2B%25281%2529.jpg
Now I'm going to size it down to img width=200.
[img
width=200]
HTML http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9XFIvswc62s/Vqg2umdA5YI/AAAAAAAAAno/yUTmXzcpJRk/s1600/CJgxC5wUAAED55j%2B%25281%2529.jpg[/img]
Now I am going to center the downsized picture:
[center][img
width=200]
HTML http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9XFIvswc62s/Vqg2umdA5YI/AAAAAAAAAno/yUTmXzcpJRk/s1600/CJgxC5wUAAED55j%2B%25281%2529.jpg[/img][/center]
I size the images I want to use to cover the whole screen at img
width=800. However I have several images at img width=640. The
smileys are usually either without sizing or img width between
80 and 20, depending on how much impact I want them to have.
Returning to the galllery in this forum, always remember when
you want to grab one of those images to do the "right click,
open in new tab" twice" to get the address on the second tab of
the image for posting and resizing.
I am ready for questions.

I'm going to have to study that for awhile, like you said, I can
do the modify button to see what you did. ;)
Is that what you use with your emoji gallery too?
Also, how do you do the entire story?
This is deep and I'm Not.. LOL

Don't panic. Rome was not built in a day.
"Is that what you use with your emoji gallery too?" Yes.
"Also, how do you do the entire story?" Hmmm. Everything is in
sections.
Take this bit of text, for example:
ABXDEFGHIJKLMNOP12345
By default, the software places on the left (left justified) and
with a standard text size of "10".
I can make it bigger and change the color of any part by using
the "Font size" and "Change Color" feature in the menu above:
ABXDEFGHIJKLMNOP12345
I can do that selectively for any character, or group of
characters:
ABXDEFGHIJKLMNOP12345
I can center the whole thing:
[center]
ABXDEFGHIJKLMNOP12345[/center]
I can make some of it bold and some italics or both:
[center]
ABXDEFGHIJKLMNOP12345[/center]
I can put the whole thing in quotes (quote button above):
[quote][center]
ABXDEFGHIJKLMNOP12345[/center][/quote]

So high light, copy and paste, don't eat the paste.. oh, never
mind that last part.. ;)
then past here and adjust as necessary?
