Sorry picture was not upload correctly

The photo attachment still did not work. For me, the "Add Media" button (above the formatting buttons of the editor window) is the only option that inserts images reliably. It's a two-step process, upload the image and then insert it into the post.

I can see the photos.
Surfaces above support will always be rougher, although you should be able to do better than that. Given the size of that part, you might want to try without supports and see if the bridging does better...
Or, try selecting "Top Contact Z Distance" = "0.1 (Detachable)" under the supports settings (in Advanced mode in PrusaSlicer), although you will want to remove the supports soon after printing because they will be more attached to the part.
Also, you can look into printing PLA supports for PETG (or PETG supports for PLA) objects - it's difficult but provides amazing results. This model has pointers to the method: https://www.printables.com/model/829946-mmu-loading-fork

How strange... still nothing for me, neither in the original post nor the follow-up, no matter which browser or device I use. Maybe some synchronization issues between different Prusa servers? This forum platform is broken, unfortunately.
