I beg to differ, I see no way to insert pics into the text at appropriate intervals and max Kb's is too small to be useful.

just how I see it.

Make an account on http://pics.ww.com then upload photos and link them in from there.

Automatically makes versions proper for furums as well as keeps any original full size photos.

Open your photo in the browser, copy the location. paste it in here, select it with your mouse, click the icon above the smileys above this text area and it will show up right where you pasted in the location. Like this:



And This:



The photos have nothing to do with this thread just easy to remember for me.

Then why did you two not say off board hosting of Pics is preferred and to encourage you we have made it hard to place them in a your post if you don't.

Your first pic sounds like good advice Tom.

http://www.anotherpower.com/gallery/   works to. It creates multiple image sizes as well as keeping the original.
However the attaching of images should work now.

Just to abuse what I make. (and run this site)

there is an addon for smf that allowed the images that are uploaded to be handled better. I was looking into it the day of install. but obviously I didnt get it added
