Better way to post Photos?

Post by Hagbard Celine » March 20th, 2013, 8:33 am

Is there a thread about how someone only moderately tech savvy can post photos larger then 400 by 300 on this site? Or can someone explain it to me without talk of codes or whats going on in the background? Thanks!

You click on "browse" below, select your picture, click on "add the file", wait, go to where you want the picture, click "place inline"

Ok, let's see what this one looks like...
It doesn't change size when clicked like yours...hmm photobucket or some such maybe?
Thanks for your help.

There you go!

Another way to post pictures is to put them on some other website, then click "Img", then paste link to photo - or something like that

I upload them to flickr and then embed them here. From a photo's page in flickr do the following:

1. Click the "Share" button above the photo.
2. Click "Grab the HTML/BBCode"
3. Choose the size you want from the drop-down menu and click the button for BBCode.
4. Select the code in the box, copy it, then paste it here on your trip report.
