Hi guys when you post can you either make the images smaller, 800x600 is reasonable or change the bbcode to this:
Code: [Select]
[url=path_to_pic][img width=800 height=600]http://path_to_pic[/img][/url]
obviously use a ratio that matches the original image, Thanks :)

Or if you don't want to resize you can create a thumbnail of your image and upload to the same location.  Just use code like

[ u r l = http://path.to.image.jpg][ i m g ]http://path.to.image_thumb.jpg[ / i m g ][ / u r l ]

Of course I'm just using spaces in there so it actually shows up. Just remove them and you'll get a thumbnail that can be clicked on for a full image just like mine below:




As you can see I agree with peeg.  Black is beautiful :) My desktop is always brightly themed, laptop always dark, no idea why :)

Well, seeing as im back into the community i might as well post my desktop.

Here goes.
To fully appreciate the clarity of my resolution and desktop background just click on the thumbnail.
(btw for those who are wondering its the boys from The Chasers War on Everything)


Running on Vista Ultimate, duel booted with Linux Ubuntu (using the awesome program Wubi). So i might show you guys my Wubi OS which runs on this same laptop...soon.

Er, I think black-obsessed twelve-year-old emos are creepy, especially when they're staring at you on your desktop while you're looking at certain websites that have certain things on there that hamsters shouldn't see... 1111234213412341234wrabooga!

OMG

My background is boring.

My favourite of the six desktops I use, and I must remember to close windows when I've finished with them




@Induane: I f you want thumbnails then imageshack produces the code when you up load other wise it seems silly to upload 2 pics just to avoid a 2 second edit of the bbcode, and if you place code between
[ code]
Code: [Select]
[img]http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/373/ss14qf2.png[/img] [ /code] then you can forego the spaces

Last time I posted an imageshack link people complained because on their computers it generated popups and av warnings.  This gets around that for people who have their own web space or at least a nice spot to upload to.

Good to know about using the code blocks, I never thought of that.
