How do you put a massive picture up on a post?

Please help!

[A80Avant]

open an account on photobucket.it reduces the size to a good quality one and then you can insert the link to it here

Please try to go no bigger than 800x600 as it causes the page to scroll

[UUUdirs2newcastle]

Ok cool, but will you have to click on the link, or will the page be one big picture?

[Jamo]

use the insert image option on the post to place it in the post.

Just a side note:

I was a very active member on the club GTI forum before discovering my true home.
There jpg size policy was strictly enforced.

I know we all run a decent resolution these days but image scrolling is a PITA !

As I said just a side note.

Please don't post massive pictures, 800x600 is big enough. If you want to link it to a bigger picture feel free to. Not all of us have superfast broadband.

Aside from the scrolling issue, you can have pics bigger than 800x600 without having huge file sizes!
This one is 1000x750, and is only 126k

You can also upload into the forum gallery which will automatically resize the image and leave the large version there if people want to view the original too
