So I generally have been using Flickr because in general I just like it better. Problem is that there mobile iOS app doesn't give you a working link to post pics on a forum. So I created a new photobucket acc specifically to use as a forum pic storage site. Do you guys have a setting somewhere for the max size you want the pic on a forum to be? I got it working but it appears the pic will be original size if I post, which will be huge. I'd like to just have a setting if possible, I don't want to resize pics or have to choose a size every time. Thanks :shakehands:
 
I am fairly sure the forum auto resizes large photos.

6056 x 2208 photo I found.

Hmm. yeah, I haven't actually posted one from it just yet. Have to give it a shot. BRB.
 
Alright, I guess it seems to fit it to the screen. Thanks! In the preview it looks like the pic will be gigantic though.
 
It depends on how you add the image to your post.

If you use "Share Links" from the Photobucket gallery to copy the IMG tags and then paste into your post, it'll be smaller and users can click it to go through to the full size.

If you just copy the URL of where the JPG lives and then do "Insert Image" in the forum editor, it will auto-scale to your browser window.


Share Links copy/paste from Photobucket:




Insert Image function on the forum:

Now try changing the size of your browser window...
 
I wish I took it! I'm certainly to cheap to have a camera that nice too:D
