Most of the pics I post (speaking of non-signature pics) are either 800x600 or 640x480. Larger than 800x600 and it causes people to have to scroll sideways and then you get yelled at. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

Yes, put the URL for the picture between the "["img"]" and "["/img"]" tokens. Minus the " 's, of course.

No, I don't think anyone has ever complained about my pictures.

If you need to resize pictures, I use this software, PIXresizer.

http://bluefive.pair.com/pixresizer.htm

It is a free download and works very well. It will do one image or an entire folder of pictures.

I have noticed that since Nico stopped coming around the pictures have gotten a lot more , oh let's say, family friendly. I kind of miss his pics sometimes.

If you are using photobucket to store your pics you can size them right there to whatever size you need.

If you are using photobucket to store your pics you can size them right there to whatever size you need.

I use photo bucket too, and there is an option to have it automatically size them to the 640 or what ever it is (6 hundred something) or a few other choices automatically.

I only use photo bucket to put pictures here, so I have it automatically make all photos that size.

If you use it for other purposes (archiving etc.) you might want to do it individually just for pics going here.
