Default Photo size

I am having trouble getting full sized photos. I have my photos on Photobucket and when I post them they are small. I don't know what I did wrong .This is the size of the photos.

After checking the photos it looks like the size is smaller. Try uploading them again.

BTW, I showed the pictures to my son and he really likes the black wheels on your vette.

I think the problem is in how you are copying the photo from Photobucket.

If you simply right-click on the pic in your album and then click on "copy image location" and use the IMG icon in the CF reply box, that will insert the thumbnail size pic you see in the PB album (and what you get in your post).

Place the mouse cursor on the same pic in your PB album. You should see a popup window that appears below the pic. There will be 4 selections with grey'ed out lines of URL code. Placed the cursor over the "IMG CODE" (last one) and click once. The text box should turn color (probably blue) Now hit Ctrl-C.

Go back to the CF Reply box and place the cursor where you want the pic to be left-click once and hit Ctrl-V. Using this method, you won't need to use the image icon at the top of the reply box as the string that you copied will already have the IMG tags added by PB.

Not sure about that. Here's his Photo Bucket account, a direct link to the photo (notice the URL isn't the same as the photo posted because his version is hot-linked and this link is the "control panel" view):
http://s92.photobucket.com/albums/l3...urrent=364.jpg

That appears to be the original file on Photo Bucket. No thumbnail.

The photo posted is 319 x 239 while the Photo Bucket account is 320 x 240 which make them pretty much the same size and unnoticeable difference to the average person.

Looked at all the pics in his album and it looks like all of them are small. Wonder if they are cellphone pics or if they were resized by some camera software as they were uploaded to his PC?
