Sorry Artie, thought you'd figured it out.

Another way;

1. Click on Add Reply - Bottom Left, under the last post. Or Quote if you wish to quote like I did here.

2. Scroll down and click on Manage Attachments.

3. 3 boxes will show up. To the right of each is a Browse button, click on that, find the picture in your system you wish to display, double click on it. It will automatically add that one to the box. If you wish to do another, up to the three max, repeat with the browse button by the next empty box.

4. When you are done adding those links, click upload. The system will load the images you have selected. When it is done loading, close that box, click on submit. Should be done.

You always have to add at least a word as text or it will telll you message is too short.

Very cool :sifone: just for the pure fact that im not the smartest tool in the shed when it comes to this sort of thing .

another way is use Photo bucket, its free, and you can make the pics slighty larger, 800x600, I believe is the desire size for on the dock someone chime in if it is bigger.

 

[Offshore Ginger]

I have read that 1024 x 768 is the desired size or does Attached Thumbnails make the correct size for better viewing like i just figured out .

 

[Ratickle]

Yep, anything over 800 wide blows it out for most screens.

 

[Ratickle]

I have read that 1024 x 768 is the desired size but how do i do it ?

Do you have a photobucket account?

 

[Ratickle]

I just copied yours into my computer, then uploaded to my photobucket account, then copied the link into here.

It is 800 x 600

 

[Offshore Ginger]

Do you have a photobucket account?

I have H P photo smart , Kodak and something i got with Windows Vista but not sure how to really use them

 

[Pete B]

go to Photobucket.com, it is free and easy to use. a little time consuming but much better for the viewer, and easier to point out detail.

 

[Ratickle]

photobucket is a free website to store your photos on.

You have to sign up, get an account with your email address and a password.

Then you can load your pictures there and they will show at the size you load them there if you copy and paste a link to your post here.

I don't do it a lot, cause I think it's a pain.

The way you just loaded the one you did will show just fine. The only thing is it has to be clicked on to show in the larger size, and it still won't be as big.

Is there any other way to show 800 size pics guys?

We prefer 800 x 800 on this site, and that is where the limits are set.
You can upload something larger, and the auto-resizer will take care of it in most instances depending on the original file type.

So do i follow the same steps as before when starting a new thread ? I think i will try this the way R.T. recomends for now & if by chance im not happy with how the pics show i will try Photobucket . Thanks everyone.............. Artie, aka OFFSHORE GINGER :sifone:
