picture size

[hondavee4]

juts wondering whether or not we could increase the size of pics on the forum,

these days most folk have broadband and larger monitors (and some have new cameras )

tbh, at the present size they dont do the place any real justice and would look a whole lot better in 1024x768

when i upload my photos to the bucket i have to reupload again in the smaller 640x480 to get them on here

also.....


ill test it here

any chance of enabling this? or maybe embedded video?


cheers guys

Hi Lee,

I took the decision last year to promote the use of flickr for hosting of images - hence the flickr button. Unfortunately hosting costs and additional disk space are already costing me too much

You can also embed video as per the example below:



Make sure you enter the full URL within the video tag like so:

Code: Select all

no worries dave, i was under the impression that sites like the bucket relieved the pressure on forums like this so it wouldnt use up precious bandwidth

also mate, if you need any help with the costs then ill slip you a few £ per year, i do that on another small site i use

cheers fella

Lee i've completed misread your post. Noticed reading it 2nd time that you are uploading to the bucket so bare with me whilst I look into it.

Do you know on your photobucket image page you have a box on the left hand side called share this code. Here you can select the [img] code and then paste into your posting on MOM:

Code: Select all
