Resizing Photobucket Photos

(1/4) > >>

Nicola:
I put some photos on PB tonight and they've changed the editing function so it's taking ages to resize them and half the time they're not saving properly and are still huge, it's driving me nuts  >:(  I remember a while back someone (think it might have been Rachel??) posted how to resize photos from the links you post on here but I can't find it and can't remember how to do it. Does anyone know how to do this or another easier way of resizing photos other than doing it on the camera as it's too late for these ones!

daunting:
Found this ..


--- Quote ---Resize your photos by manually altering the forum code in your post. Instead of
Code:

[img http://url of your photo /img]

you can alter the code to read
Code:

[img http://width=640]url of your photo /img]

This has the effect of automatically reducing photos to the right size for COL.

have left out inside brackets at it wouldn't should codes  ::)

Rhona W:
Think you type 'width=640' in the first set of brackets after the word image.  :-\

Nicola:
Thanks guys but that doesn't work for me, it just brings up a box with a red cross in it. Where exactly do the brackets need to go, I think that may be what I'm doing wrong.

As an example, this is the normal code so it's too big...



but this is what I get if I put width=640] in as per the instructions in Donna's post...



The code starts [IMG]http:// so is it straight after that you put the 'width=640'? And is it in two square brackets as well as in ...//[width=640] or is it just ...//width=640] as per the instructions... although neither of these work for me! Do I need to remove any other brackets at the end?

God you'd think I didn't need to be up at 6am  ph34r 

JenSam:
I put in the width=500 straight after the first IMG, inside the brackets and it seems to work fine.

Like this:

[IMG  width=500]http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u35/douglaj/DSC00069.jpg[/img]

Just one space between IMG and width should make it look like this?
