please help, my pics are too big!

[Jillpie]

I finally went and uploaded at photobucket last night. I was able to use the edit feature right above my pics to make them smaller for this site. For some reason, that edit feature was gone this morning. Any idea why? All I'm seeing above my pics is "img and the number". And when I click on the pic, it used to take me to the pic where you could enlarge it, or "resize" it, but now that resize part is gone. What happened?

anyone?

I can't tell you what is going on, but to make it a bit easier for you, I would make it so that photobucket automatically resizes the photos when it uploads them. To do this, there is a link above where you enter in the pics you want to upload. It says "max image size:" and shows a size and has a link for options. Click on that and change it to 800X600 (15" screen) then save that info. Then you shouldn't have to resize them anymore for this board anyways.

Hope that helped.

I just checked my Photobucket account (haven't look at it in months) and the resize control is still there for me. Try rebooting or using a different browser (cough-Firefox-cough) to make sure that the problem isn't with your browser. If it's still not there, you'll probably need to contact Photobucket help, maybe it's something with your account?
