Testing if I'm able to create a new Topic

Now this topic actually appears in the forums.

My guess is that my "Slue Foot Sue" topic for the General Discussion either had too many animated gifs, or some kind of problem with PhotoBucket. Though in the preview it displays perfectly fine. When I save it even a message appears confirming that it has been created. But it doesn't appear in the topics list.

Any suggestions are appreciated :-)

I forgot to mention that I tried to create it twice.

Also, before that, I tried to put all the images in a post at a different existing topic called "Ever annoyed by inflation as a kid?". The preview worked perfectly, with the images and animations being displayed just as I wanted. But when saving, a message appeared saying that "This requires approval". I tried it twice as well.
The reason I didn't wait for the approval, is because that message also appeared once in a comment I made for an image, but the approval never came. And usually comments here don't ask to wait for approval. So I think it might be some kind of bug.

Now, this image alone works well.

Maybe my post was too long, and I should sepparate it into two posts

No bug, but the behavior is sometimes inconsistent.

I use a third-party service called Mollom for spam filtering. If it detects a suspicious post, then it will remain unpublished until I approve it. I don't always notice the posts quickly. If you try to post something and it fails, send me a message. Otherwise I just wind up with multiple copies of a post in the queue.

Ok. thanks :-)
