Am I remembering wrong, or did it used to be that you could preview your post before adding text to the title box?
Just a little annoyance, because often I just want to post an embedded image that the OP did not include, and it's uncertain whether it will work, so I always preview first, and if the image does not hot-link, then I just back out of the whole thing.
Anyway, now I have to put a title before I can see whether it will even work.

I think you could preview or post without a title in DU3, if that's what you're asking.
Think. Again.
