Can someone explain please.
 

I posted some pictures of my bike on a thread and they came out as thumbnails. Many of you have posted much larger pictures. How do you do that please.

Cheers

When you insert an image into your response from a URL, uncheck the "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" box.

I can't seem to get this working. I assume that it is asking for an image from another source other than my computer. If so, then I won't be able to do it. I don't have any images other than whats on my computer or memory cards. I guess I will have to live with thumbnails. Thanks for helping though.

yes. you have to upload your images to an "image sharing" site like imageshack.com or imgur or tinypic or flickr or youpic or picpost or upic or give-up-the-last-vestige-of-any-sense-of-privacy-you-thought-you-had-on-the-internet-and-let-us-collect-data-and-store-data-on-your-pc-in-exchange-for-hosting-your-pics-of-your-cats.net THEN copy that url into the url pic upload dropdown menu in bikeforums THEN uncheck the retrieve button.

then, enjoy.

Thank you.
