Competition entries

[Ian Pratt]

How do some entrants get their photo to appear full size and others have a thumbnail?

[Pete Eeles]

This forum provides a quick-and-easy facility for uploading images - using PostImage.org - resulting in a thumbnail being shown.

The alternative, if you want to post a full-size image with no thumbnail, is to upload your image to some web space accessible on the Internet (such as Flickr or PhotoBucket) and then using the [img] tag.

Cheers,

i tried several times to use a flickr image but to no avail !!

photobucket worked first time although the picture is slightly too big...despite shrinking it before posting

ps i have now figured out what to do....there is a resize button on the photobucket page...you can select 600 x 480 which fits well onto the competition display

Hi Charles, I had the same problem with image sizes when using photo buckets. Athough I will continue to use this free photo hosting site I have found if I resize my image before uploading to photobuckets It sorts out the problem, the size I use 900 x 600, give it a try

thanks for that brian .... i have found out how to resize after posting to photobucket so i will stick with that !!
