Give a man a chance
I am thinking of trying out what Steve is doing. I hate these small pics so i am wanting a gallery of my own.
No need to use Photobucket or any other photo hosting site. You can create one or more Photo Albums here (in your user profile), then link to the pics using the Insert Image function. (It's the little icon showing the sun and a mountain, visible in the editing toolbar if you're using the "Advanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing" option.)
Here are the basic steps:
1. Upload the pictures of your choice to a photo album in your user profile. Click
User CP to open your profile, the select
Pictures and Albums from the
Networking section of the menu on the left side of the screen.
2. After the pic is uploaded, click the thumbnail to display the full-size version of the photo.
3. With the pic displayed, select the URL in the Address bar of your browser. It will look something like this, minus the extra spaces in the "http" part:
h t t p://familywoodworking.org/forums/picture.php?albumid=1&pictureid=2
Be sure the entire URL is highlighted (selected), then right-click on it and select
Copy.
4. Next, go to the post where you want to insert the full-size picture and click the
Insert Image icon
in the toolbar. Right-click in the dialog box that's displayed, select
Paste, then click
OK. Your picture will then be displayed in your post like this:
5. Go pour yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy...you're done.
