Sandokan Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I'd like to attach some images with my posts but I don't know what's the better format and size. I was thinking jpeg and around 1 Mb. Any suggestion? Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agusto Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 My suggestion is to use images sized below 1024x768 or similar so they dont take too much space on peoples screens. If you want to attach images larger than that size, at least i personally would be more comfortable with only having the link to the image in your post instead of the full image. If you want to resize your images (change resolution and DPI), you can use the free Artweaver demo, a Photoshop clone. Google tells you where to download it. Also, dont directly attach them to your posts but use an external host like http://imageshack.us/ instead. If you directly attach them using the forums attachment manager, they will be resized automatically. You can insert those externally hosted images into your posts using [img*]http://example.com/example.jpeg[/img*] without the *. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sburke Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 bookmark this, it is pretty much the handbook for posting. Lots of good suggestions about not just how to get the image linked, but how to clean up the image for presentation. http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=97288 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandokan Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Exactly what I needed, step by step explanation. The right thing for somebody like me not very experienced with technological stuff. Just to say, first time I had a telephone installed at home I was 24. Go figure. Thanks Sburke! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
