Boards: preview & jump to first page?

I'm no sure what forum software is being used, but a preview of your post would be much appreciated especially when posting picture links. This way you don't have a gazillion edits trying to make sure the post looks ok. On that note as well...is there any way to keep the forum from throwing you back to the first post on the first page of the thread instead of keeping you on the page your comment will show up?

Ex. I wasn't sure if these boards allowed for thumbnail previews from photobucket so I create my post and place the html code in it. With no preview feature to check, I had to simply post blind then it shoots me back to the first post/first page of the topic. I think make my way back to the last page and my post, edit, and post the edited post. It again, shoots me back to the first post/page where I then have to again navigate back to the post to ensure it posted properly. If not...then edit (rinse, repeat). That's a lot of unnecessary loading that could be resolved with a preview feature and/or keeping you on the current page once you post.

This is actually one of the few boards that I've seen that doesn't offer the preview feature so I thought I'd throw that out there.

Thanks for reading Happy

i agree with that, also a go to last post/page button would be very handy, or simply page numbers at the top too.
