Hi gang.

It occurred to me that the file size for uploads of images to a forum post was only 100kb.  I just changed it to 5,00kb (or 5 MB)  This should make it easier to do uploads without having to make the images really tiny.  Also, if your image width is larger than 700 pixels, it will now automatically resize it to 700 pixels wide. This will help keep it decent looking on the page and bring the size of the file to a more reasonable size for members still on dialup.

If your file is over 5MB you can try this online resize tool.  Select the "600 Pixels" option and you should be good to go!  After you click the Resize button, remember to right-click the resized image to save it to your hard drive, then choose that new file to upload here.

Let me know if you have any problems or questions with this addition.

Thanks!

Just missing a new line between your text and your image. That will make it sit to the left.

I'll have to try it later. I'm a little slow at these things Embarrassed, but if it makes bringing on pictures any easier this will be HUGE (pardon the pun). Thanks Adam.
