Mixer Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Okay, I seem to have tried everything. After choosing a file, whatever sized pic I try to upload to a post - when I click on `preview post` they are always thumbnail size!? Totally baffled here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Mixer, Can you do a screen grab to show us how you are attaching them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mixer Posted May 25, 2016 Author Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) I`m just selecting `Choose File` in the bottom left corner and uploading a pic from my collection. Jpeg`s sized in photoscape. Edited May 25, 2016 by Mixer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Where are you seeing "Choose File"? Under "My Media" or using the image button? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mumbles Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 There really isn't a great way to do this. It treats attached images the same way it treats any other file, which is just as an ordinary file. If you upload to the gallery, then you can link to full sized I believe. I sort of cheat most of the time. After you upload it, you can get the URL of the file, which will be full sized, and use the normal image insertion code or macro. This does put it at 100% though, so if you didn't resize from the native resolution, it will often be too large for the screen and stretch it out. I will typically edit these back out, or into links to keep things looking good. [img="URL here"] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsroom Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) I have never been at one with the computer. Sometimes I beat on it (The Computer) and it still won't do what I want. I did manage to get the jpeg loaded into the gallery. But I am still having a hard time getting the image into the topic where it can be seen. Where do I find the URL? Not sure how to do it............Pat Edited August 11, 2016 by patsroom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
