Can I spoiler tag pics?

You sure can! Here’s some things I learned:

@Mel-Addams

Blurring an image breaks the ability to view the full image (via both “new tab” and “view image”) if the original is larger than what the forum shows. A hyperlink around the entire thing causes the click-to-unblur function to open the link. Putting the hyperlink inside the spoiler tags makes it possible to click blank space on the right (if applicable) to unblur, and the “times viewed” circle to become right-click-able, but is not an intuitive method. Placing a fullsize link above or below the image seems to be the best option.

[Not relevant after more science, but for the sake of education, I’m leaving this point in:]

@Mel-Addams

An image (under 3mb) directly uploaded to the forum and then placed inside a dropdown spoiler can break the thumbnail rules. If very long (presumably at least twice as long as it is wide, whether inside a spoiler tag or not), it may size itself to fill the width of the post, resulting in only the top section of the image visible.

There’s more of what I learned about posting images in that post, but those are the two most relevant points for using the spoiler tags with images.

EDIT: additional thing I learned: for quotes, you can click on the expand/dropdown arrow within the quote box on the top right. That will expand the quote to show the entire post, with the quoted section highlighted.
EDIT2: quotes appear to preserve the text as-is. While opening the dropdown does result in seeing the proper post (since it is generated on click), the copied text displayed in the truncated quote is not automagically edited by the forum.
