Size of Images in Post
 

Can anyone help me out here. I am tired of my images showing up huge in my posts, how do i change the size of images when I link the url from my photobucket?

Click on [I][B]Account Settings[/B][/I].

Go to the [I][B]Album Settings[/B][/I] tab.

Under [I][B]Links [/B][/I]you will see numerous check boxes. Add a check to [I][B]IMG thumb[/B][/I].

This will provide the thumbnail link below each of your images for easy copy and paste. I wish more people used that feature.

I googled resizing images and looks like the adding code to resize a large pic it is a royal PITA.

I generally resize pictures to 640x480 or 320x240 before uploading.
(invert for for vertical cards)

This method you do not lose the detail of your scan/photo, but it makes the thread you post in easier to navigate. The thumbs are shown and one can click on them to see the detailed image.

Scrolling through a thread of dozens of images sizes is not my idea of fun.

switch to picasa. The link for the image has a portion near the end that is 's' followed by the size in pixels.

If the image I want to put here is:

that s731 is the size. I simply change it to s500 and blam! it's reduced to the exact size I want to present in the thread.
