Here's a quick easy way to resize a preview pic.
A hat tip to Mike (HighOnSmoke) for turning me on to this little trick!
BBcode Usage & Syntax:
[lMG width=Pixel_Size]Image_URL_Goes_Here[/lMG]
Note: This resizes the preview to the pixel size you specify, and displays the full size image when clicked.
Example:
[lMG width=200]https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-CbPLowyKF2o/UNEydzavC-I/AAAAAAAAEGI/mpD6HO1thDk/s740/HOL1214.JPG[/lMG]
Result:
(https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-CbPLowyKF2o/UNEydzavC-I/AAAAAAAAEGI/mpD6HO1thDk/s740/HOL1214.JPG)
This will definitely come in handy when posting future threads! 8)
Edit note: this will not work on all forums, but should work on any that are running SMF.

Thanks

Good tip.

Thanks Cliff but I was following pz's tutorial on how to post from Picasa web albums.
I tried to make it work with the photos from Photobucket but that won't work for some
reason. Are you using Picasa? Disregard I just saw where you posted your photo from. ::)

Mike, here's one of your photobucket photos with this resizing tag working.

Now this is just the [lMG] tag and not the URL, but it seems to be working fine. To see the BBcode, click the "Quote" button.

For me it is irritating to have to click on a picture to enlarge it. I like the postcard size 4X8 pictures :)

Thanks Cliff, I will try this out again. I think I was on the right track but I left the URL in the tag.
