For Photobucket Users

right lads, i know this has been tackled on and off, in various posts over the last few weeks, but wanted just to post this as i've now got this sussed....of course if yours is fine, totally ignore me lol!!
PROBLEM....on NEW Photobucket, after uploading pix from your pc files, then selecting img link to post them on here, the pix appear huge on the thread, and missing up to half of their content; HOWEVER, this only affects the user doing the posting, NOT other forum viewers....it has been happening to me lately and googling it revealed it is a common problem for Pb users...
SOLUTION... select 'Edit' in Pb, then 'Re-size' from menu across top of page....select 600 in left-hand (width)box and 400 will automatically appear in righ-hand box, if your pic is portrait instead of landscape, then obviously select 400 in left-hand box, and 600 will appear in right (height) box...
next select'Apply' then 'Save' , then, and this is CRUCIAL, select 'make new copy', not 'replace original pic'..... if you don't the change will NOT take place....
next select 'image links' from right hand side drop-down menu, and select img link, (the bottom one) right-click this and 'copy' appears, then come onto forum thread and hit paste in the desired postion in the post.....
hope this all made sense, its been driving me mad all evening and only just got it sorted once and for all....

good advice and help billy!

Billy, thanks for the info. Now, just to throw a curve ball, it is only happening to me on this forum. On other forums I have had no issue with it.

yeah mal, and to add to it, it will prob come all right in about a week if you just replace the pix or just post them as they are....this method above allows the pic to appear to you the user immediately in its entirety...
