It's something that is relevant to memory, time perception, consciousness and re-creation of past events that are imperatives of the fundamentals of philosophy. — Mark Nyquist
One way to upload images to TPF is to do a Google search for your topic. Select the "images" sub-tab, then find an appropriate image and click it. The selected image will then appear in the upper right hand corner. Right click on it, and select from the menu : "copy image link". With the link now stored in your clipboard memory, go to your post and click on the rectangle & mountain symbol on the menu bar to open the Image dialog. Paste the image link in the box, and click "Go". The image will then be added to your post where the cursor is located. There are other methods, but they may require a little more work. :smile:Is there anything that can be done about the limited ability to post photographs/images on this Philosophy Forum? — Mark Nyquist
Yes. What famous philosopher said "a picture is worth a thousand words"? OOOps! The quote below says it was an advertising executive, presumably with pecuniary motives instead of philosophical wisdom. Nevertheless, philosophical tomes tend to be abstract & verbose. So it's easy to get lost in the labyrinth of metaphysics. But a picture works like a poetic metaphor to compress idealized generalizations into concrete specifications : an instance. FWIW, I save meaningful images to a personal webpage, for use later in blogs & posts. :smile:Anyway, the jist of my OP was that images are fundamental to philosophy, and on reflection, not so much a criticism of this forum. — Mark Nyquist
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
