Default I have both large Pics and Thumbnails

Over the past two days I posted several Road Glide parts for sale in the Touring Parts section. I uploaded photos of the items from my Photobucket account using the img tag. In my ad I now have both a large photo and the thumbnails. How do should I upload my photos so I have just the thumbnail pic like most posters do?

Personally I like the large photos and find it PITA to click on the thumbnails but don't want the mods to rag on me for breaking some forum rule if I am.

Thanks for the assistance

Ah...the great mysteries of pictures on the forums. I typically drop in thumbs via the advanced attachment option. Best of luck

I had the same issue today.

Ran a test; it appears the issue has been solved....

"Advanced Attachment Option"? Please explain.

I tried to post a picture from my album, into a post and couldn't. I can do it in my sig, of course, but I want to do it in a post.

Any help is appreciated.

1. go to your User CP (upper left side of page on blue toolbar) and click it.

2. Scroll down to "Edit Options" click it.

3. Now scroll all the way down to the bottom and

4. change from "Basic Editor" to "Enhanced".

5. Confirm settings by clicking "Save Changes" .

@FXD...got it! Thanks for that. But how do I get the pics from the album to my posts? I had to do the pics to my sig on my laptop. The iPad just won't do it...or I can't figure it out.

If you right click on an image in your album, copy/paste the image link into your post and put the link inbetween this:

[img]link[/img]
