How to insert clickable thumbnails into posts.

  1. So if I have a photobucket account how do i insert the clickable thumbnail images that link to the larger images?

    When I link from photobucket it just inserts the full size image into the body of the post.

    Thanks
     
  2. how do you post pictures?
     
  3. Normally through the app or on my comp through the gc website.


    But all the photos end up at the bottom of the post. I want to be able to add lines of text in between the photos.


    Thanks for the reply.
     
  4. Doesn't look like Photobucket has a link for a thumbnail version... The only way I can think of that you could do it with Photobucket is by making your own thumbnails and uploading those as well as the full sized pictures. Then you can post the thumbnail pictures in [​IMG]
     
  5. Doesn't have to be photobucket.


    Any good ones with the thumbnail link?
     


  6. Not that I can think of. I've used many different photo hosting sites and I can't think of one that has a thumbnail link...


    Actually... Imgur might work for you. They allow you to resize the picture by just putting an "s, m, or l" on the end of the file ID.

    So you could, for instance, upload to imgur, copy/paste their "Linked BBCode", and add an "s" in the URL between the IMG tags (right before the .jpg).

    So basically...

    http://i.imgur.com/B5fKWj0[B][U][COLOR="Blue"]s[/COLOR][/U][/B].jpg[[COLOR="Red"]**[/COLOR]/IMG][[COLOR="Red"]**[/COLOR]/URL]

    Would do this upon removing the red asterisks;

  7. It can be done pretty easily if you upload the photos onto GC.
    if you click on an uploaded photo it will have links on the right for different tags. Only thing if you'll have to put the http://www.grasscity.com in front of the / to get it to work. Make sense?

  9. Yup you can delete it.

    This works in photobucket but it takes you to the photobucket page when clicked.

    Still cannot figure it out through the GC photo gallery.

    I'm still trying though.
     
  11. This is how to do it from the GC photo gallery


    (URL=http://forum.grasscity.com/FULL SIZE IMAGE LINK.jpg)(img)http://forum.grasscity.com/THUMBNAIL IMAGE LINK.jpg(/img)(/URL)

    Just replace the ( ) with [ ]
