How NOT to post thumbnail image?

[wattashot]

I worded that question odd in the title I know, but I still cant figure out to get a decent sized image posted rather than the thumbnail. How would one go about posting an image other than thumbnail? Thanks for the help whomever may feel so inclined to do so.

1. Find hosting site (e.g flickr)

2. Copy the image's url. (right-click image and select copy img url)

3. Paste the url into image tags, which look like this: [img] [/img]

e.g

[img] http://www.photohostingsite.com/photo.jpg [/img]

Don't put the spaces in though.

You can also use HTML if you so desire.

For example <img src="http://www.photohostingsite.com/photo.jpg">

Many hosting sites generate the code for you, so all you have to do is cut and paste it, instead of writing your own tags out.

For Flickr specific you can check out How to Post Pictures in Assignment Threads Using Flickr

To resize:

BBcode (the square bracket tags) = [img=widthxheight]

e.g [img=740x500] http://www.photohostingsite.com/photo.jpg [/img]

Again, don't use spaces.

HTML = <img src="http://www.photohostingsite.com/photo.jpg" width="740" height="500">

Thank you sir!

Kyle,

If you're using Flickr, go to the page of the image you want to upload.
Click Share this
Click Grab the HTML
Click the dropdown box beneath and code box and choose the size (Medium is the largest most sites allow).
Copy the HTML in the box (Click & drag your mouse over the HTML code). Hit Ctrl-C on your keyboard.
Paste it into the thread where you want the photo posted by clicking in the Reply window and hitting Ctrl-V on your keyboard.
Voila!

If this isn't a good explanation, let me know and I'll try to help further.
