[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 277510, member: 9240"] As others have said, create a jpg for posting in the precise size in which it will be displayed on the web. Here, the max size for an embedded image is 1000px. That said, [I]depending on the size of your browser window it may not display at full size!![/I] Ah yes, another beef I have with this software. You can link it at full size, but if someone hasn't closed the extra panel to the right ==> then it will compress the full size image mangling the display. So, unless you click on the image to pop-up the full size there is no guarantee you're seeing it as I intended. Bothersome, but something that must be lived with. Same is true at sights like Flickr where they automatically resize your upload to umpteen different smaller sizes, and while their algorithm is pretty good, it's still not what I uploaded. 500px does the same if it's above (I believe) 1600px on the large side.
