    Posting larger photos inline in a post

    Crap, I post photos so seldom, I can never remember how to make the photo appear full sized in the post, and instead always get a thumbnail that has to be clicked.

    I've searched out the solution on the board before, but it always takes me ages to find it.

    Can someone please just tell me how to do it and I will copy and paste the instructions on my desktop for future reference?

    Use a image posting site like this Postimage.org - free image hosting / image upload

    and just copy and paste the link for forum

    Ok, thanks. I had some other way of doing it without hosting it somewhere, but I can't remember. I'll do this and be done with it!

    When I find a picture via online I right click on it and choose View image info. Then when the window pops up you copy past the link to the photo. Choose insert image from URL and un-check the box that says Retrieve remote file and reference locally. This will make the image full size.

    I just tried that, bc I hadn't set up the hosting thing, and it worked fine. Thanks!
