Okay, give!
How do I size the pictures small enough (bytes) to post on here, not a photo bucket?
Then what is the procedures to post the pic, after resizing?

Re: Posting pictures

I just upload them to windypix.com. You can choose preferences on the main page then choose Height: 800. Leave the width alone. It'll resize it for you. Easiest I've found without breaking out paint shop pro

When you upload it tells you "copy this to post on bulletin boards" so just paste whats there in your message and boom you got a pic.

IDK about that. I use a computer. You might try uploading somewhere and then clicking "remote" and putting the link in there. That makes it pull from the other site to windypix then they'll resize it the same way if you enter 800 in the height under preferences.

Right click on your pic.
Click on edit.
Go to resize your pic. MInes on the bottom right.
Change it to the size you need.
Save it.
You're done.

Re: Posting pictures

I'm a computer retard so I got a mac. When photo files are too big to upload I just take a screenshot of the pic and post that. Takes about two seconds. Sorry I can't help you with your ipod.

Re: Posting pictures

hum, still can't figure it out, once I put the picture in Windypix I can see it, but I don't see the "copy this to post on bulletin boards", as you mentioned. What am I missing?

When you upload it it'll give you a preview. Then underneath that you'll see it says things like this:

Code:
Image Links
Social Networks:
Small Thumbnail link
BBCode (Forums)
etc.
You choose any of the links that says BBCode (Forums) and just paste that into your post. It looks like you picked a regular link and put it in using the picture icon on the forums here.

Re: Posting pictures

Looks like you got it while I was gone. The last one you didn't copy the whole link so it showed up as text and a pic.
The watermark I get sometimes, sometime I dont.
