Thanks. I managed to get the image to appear in the test post then I started an [actual thread with the pic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/tucker-carlson-soap-opera-caption-contest/1033690). Then I deleted the test post and left a boring old “nevermind”.

I actually did not know there was a dedicated thread for test posts. Wow. That and I messed up where to put the thread. Not a good show. Not top-drawer.
