Images

[Twisties]

Hi,

I notice that even though I am hosting my own images on an external site the board here is resizing them. I participate in a lot of boards and have never seen this before. Is there a way to link so that they will display as intended? Most boards allow 800 or 1000 pixels in the longest direction. My experience is that 1000 pixels is a pretty good choice for internet display. You are knocking them down to 600 pixels it seems.

Thanks,

Jan

If you use the IMG tag to link to an external image, the system will do an HTML resize down to 600 width. Most browsers support right-clicking on the image and picking "view image," which will take you to the image itself in its full size. The reason I have it set to resize is because really big images tend to distort the layout of the page.
