Title: Inserting Pics.
Post by: IassaFTots on October 07, 2009, 01:50:16 PM

Ok, I get that I have to go to addl options, and attach the photo, but they always end up eeny beeny.  How can I insert one that is nice and big, requiring no squinting. 

Thanks!

I have a photobucket account (www.photobucket.com). Load pics into it, then upload into here. It's free and ever so much easier.

Yup:  Same thing that happens to me.

Deb:  I think I already have a photobucket account.  I don't fool around with that so much.  So, I can upload a photo that isn't mine into photobucket, and then I would do the Insert Image thingy from the shortcut tool bar up there?  ^

Most pictures can be added to photobucket using the url of the picture.  You can also "right click" a picture, save it to your computer then upload it to photobucket.

yep what Thundley said.

I right click a pic, that isn't mine, copy the properties, then put it in "my pictures" then upload to photobucket.

  It was certainly simple enough to insert the above pic.  Quicker than Imageshack or photobucket I would imagine.  The problem is that viewers than have to click picture to view in larger size.

If you attach a pic through the forum, it always shows small. If you click on it after it's been posted, one can see it in it's true size. It's best not to exceed 640 x 480, otherwise many folks will have problems displaying the entire pic.
