O.P. [REQ] attachments and their threads
Before it was changed, an attachment-link looked like:
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/attachment.php?tid=11111&pid=22222

This was very handy because you could actually find the thread very easly from where the attachment came. you did that by just changing "attachment.php" to "showthread.php"....

But it has been changed to:
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/attachment.php?pid=22222

Which is indeed shorter, but you can't find out what the original thread is anymore :(

Now, since the [post=xxx] tag was added, there is a way (but dodgy) of finding out the thread:
* go create a new post in a forum:
* enter "[post=22222]" as message
* press preview
* copy the link, or go directly to that link
* discard the post you're making

Now, this is indeed a possible way, but it realy isn't handy.

So, to cut the crap: can the "tid"-tag be added again to attachment-links?
