Hey! This is the very first post on Zonboards, specifically just testing out everything and seeing if this works. I'd love to share some of my Zine creation tools, and physical hobby stuff to help folks out.
End test.

Here's a post about a zine! A friend made a gazetteer for an OSE game and I zine-ified it
I have been figuring out that when my printer does doubled-sided, I need to do short flip and it prints the "cover" as the last page. Does anyone else's printer do this?
P.s. hoping that the image worked!!
Edit: the image didn't really work. I tried to use a sharing link from my Google photos. You can click it and see but it doesn't embedd :<

Was the image you linked too big? I wonder if there's a size limit like there was for the avatars.

There's definitely a size limit for uploading at attaching images, but there's also the image field, in text, that looks for a url? I was hoping it would embed the image in the text body, but it didn't work for a sharing link to a Google photos. I'm going to test with an image from Zonware to see how it works
Edit: looks like it had to do with the image link!

Eyy! Yeah looks like you have to upload and "place inline"
