happychappy Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 (edited) Hey everyone I'm new here so please be gentle! I was trying to post a picture in the dog thread using attachments and the pictures were all incredably small with black borders no matter how much I resized them the black box wouldnt change size. I read another post that said to use picasa or other image hosting sites.I uploaded the image to picasa and copyed the html link and put it in img codes and it wouldnt accept the html link for some reason any help would be most appreciated.

happychappy Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 sorry for not explaining fully in first post, but is there any way to make the thumbnail bigger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 (edited) No. If anyone wants a better look they'll click on it. As an alternative host your pic elsewhere and embed it.

ped Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Hi mate Yeah if you want the pic to just appear large under your post you will need to host them somewhere - like Photobucket. Once you upload a pic to photobucket it will give each image something called an IMG tag. Simply copy + paste the IMG tag where you would like to see the pic and it will appear once you hit the reply button. It will look a bit like this (but without the spaces) [ img ] picofdoggie.jpg [/ img] Hope this helps ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
