Posting "Thumbnail" size photos

[Greg Myers]

How does one post the "thumb nail" size photos? Does this save bandwidth? I notice a lot of people posting this way lately.

If you post a photo from a photo hosting site, the photo will either show here at its full size, or if it exceeds a certain size it'll be automatically downsized here and you have to click on it to see it full size (but it won't be a small thumbnail size).

If you post a photo directly from your computer's hard drive it shows up here as a thumbnail.

BUT with photobucket you can post thumbs directly, if you have it configured to.

"image code" is the fourth line down

"image thumb" is down one more

as you will notice you can click on the thumb to open it up bigger!!

Yeah, but if you post a thumbnail from Photobucket here, when you click on it, it takes you to the Photobucket site. There's no good reason to do it that way.

Agreed!! thats why I post the img line...next time I will post the sharp one too

Other (smaller) forums dictate small images in posts...and that works for them....just sayin..... ;)
