Yes, I actually started this thread :oops: I have seen some full sized beautiful pictures of some incredible setups here on the ECF.

But whenever I upload a picture from my Smart(er than me) Phone or my laptop, it's just a puny little thing.

SO, if I go to PhotoBucket and 'FREE' sign up..... then what ? Please remember, I'm just an old trucker, not really all that techno-savvy. But with y'all helping, I might just somehow figure this out :thumb:

Click on upload images to your library, once that's done select the image you want to show on the forum and click the URL link called DIRECT LINK to copy it. Then here on the forums when you select the image insert tab, choose from URL and paste the copied photo bucket link into the text box. And this is the most important part uncheck Retrieve remote file and refrence locally. Viola big beautiful image.

The IMG doesn't work with direct links which is what I think you use. I put a space in the following below, but that's the IMG code that I can copy and paste from the picture you were trying to post.



Okay, so apparently I can't put spaces in to show you what it looks like, it keeps posting regardless
