<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 708148, member: 112&quot;]I have explained the picture issue at least 6 or 8 times in the past month or so. It is not Coin Talk - it is you.</p><p><br /></p><p>First of all, we have a maximum file size we allow for pictures, that&#039;s 250kb. So all you have to do is re-size and/or reformat your pictures (change the file type) BEFORE you try to upload them to Coin Talk.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you take your pic and save it as a .bmp file - you&#039;re going to have problems and your pics will not enlarge. That&#039;s because .bmp files are huge - often over 1mb in size. But if you change that file type from a .bmp to .jpg - then the file size almost always is less than our maximum allowable size.</p><p><br /></p><p>If your picture is over 250kb in size - you&#039;re going to have problems and your pics will not enlarge. Even if they are .jpg files. if you start out with a picture that say 1.2mb in size and you upload it to Coin Talk - then the software is going to shrink that picture, and it will show up small just like yours did Bill, and it will not enlarge.</p><p><br /></p><p>If your picture pixel size is small to begin with, then the picture will not enlarge. The forum software does not do that and never did do that.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you want your picture to be 640x480 - then you need to start with a picture that is 640x480 AND one that is less than 250kb in size. If you do that, then the forum software will shrink your pic size for the post itself, but when a member clicks on it the pic will enlarge to full size.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom line is this folks, the forum software only does 1 thing - it shrinks the picture for use in the post. And if someone clicks on it then the picture enlarges to full size. BUT - that picture <b><u>must be sized correctly</u></b> before you upload it or it will not work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
