I read all that. The point was in those posts that they are only broken for ALBUM images, and I had unfortunately used album images throughout this post, and it would be a lot of work to move them all and edit all those posts. We must find alternative solutions, because the only reliable options that work for me (other than offsite images) also violate the mobileread "multiple accounts" rule, so I cannot "legally" use wiki images until somebody gets authority to fix my broken geekmaster wiki account. The test above shows that attached posts add an annoying (to me) block of thumbnails that I cannot hide.
Though here is an idea for another way: I could create an image storage post somewhere, and stick hundreds of images in it, and link all my other embedded images in other threads to those. Although, I am not certain if that will work because the attachment uploader only has five buttons, so if that is a problem my storage thread would have many posts each with five images. The problem is that each new image-holder post would bump the thread, which is also annoying.
And now that I know the rules are not to be taken literally, but are subject to moderator interpretation, I do not dare to test some things, like tall multi-segment images where each segment fits the 600x600 guideline, but the appearance in a post is the same as one single tall image. Such things are how computer programmers get computers to do those "impossible" things -- just simple workarounds to us. However, here, I plan to avoid anything that could have painfully unpredictable (to me) consequences.
