Photobucket query

[Shewie]

Okay I`ve just signed up to Photobucket tonight and can`t get the pictures to appear correctly in my threads.

http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26577

I`ve resized them individually to Message Board size, then I click on my album at the top of the screen to go back, I then copy and paste the IMG code in to my thread. For some reason they appear differently on here than how I configured them for 640 x 480 on PB before I copied them.

I don`t get it, if I open them up on PB they look fine, I`m running XP with I.E version 6.0.2


Any ideas ???

both pics look ok to me - they're both 640 x 480 ?!?!

(win XP + IE 6.0.2900.2180 + sp2)

Weird !!

It must be a bug affecting some users who post piccies.

I did put another on later which seemed to go on okay. Maybe it`s just with the first couple using photobucket.

They show at 640x480 for me too, Win XP, SP2, IE 7.0

They look okay on my PC at work aswell, maybe I`ll have to look at my laptop tonight.

You need to click on the generate IMG and HTML button

standard view using the copied IMG link

click on generate IMG and HTML button and scroll down to create clickable images for message boards, copy this code and you get this



click on the image for a full view. This works well for people still on a dial up connection, waiting for the full image takes a lot longer than the click image and they can still get a look at the image without clicking it.

Blimey Rik .... 4 months to reply to a thread?!

good info though, I didn't realise you could post 'thumbnails' in a thread with a clickthrough to a bigger image .

cheers
