You can't preview attachments, Baz, as they won't upload until you hit the Post button.

Not quite sure why you're trying Baz, but a post must have text even if you only want the attachments to be uploaded.

Yes, you can't post an attachment on it's own without any text.

Could you use "spaces" instead of actual text?

I don't think so, Ted.  The only alternative is to upload the picture to a host, then post it with an IMG link.

Or you could match the text colour to the background.  ;D
