Title: How do I resize photos in imgur
Post by: MnFn on September 11, 2017, 10:47:00 AM

I successfully posted a couple of photos via imgur, but the photos were very large. Anyone know how a good way to resize?

this isn't a resize issue.  as tony posted on your test post, it's a matter of server types. a standard server uses "http://" and SECURE servers use "https://" - remove the "s" and your image will be automatically resized by trad gang.

you want to make sure your imgur account is set to "public".

please do all your computer testing in the "trad gang and computers" forum, not the powwow forum.  thanx!

firstly, images are not allowed in signature lines.  i removed yours.

second, you posted a secure link to your imgur PAGE and not to a specific image.

go to your imgur 'settings' and make sure your imgur account PUBLIC and not private.

this is the code for your specific image ...

Code: [Select]

https://i.imgur.com/bAbqKVC.jpgthis is the image code you need to copy from your imgur account ...

Code: [Select]

[img]http://i.imgur.com/bAbqKVC.jpg[/img]notice that "https" is now "http".  this is important.

which when pasted in your post will look like this ...
