problem sorted now.............don't know what happened there.....but i feel like one of those folks abducted by aliens...things are back to normal, not sure what i've just gone through but i just feel somehow violated..............     

  

Avatars not showing with me either. Could be a glitch on the forum itself  

Just to add that i have noticed that anybody that has been on since that Honey singh post was addedave lost there avatar.

aye, i thought so...cheers brian....  

 

all sorted now,thanks for the heads up billy.

no worries m8, thanks for sorting...  

lads i've asked about this before, just wondered if any members can shed new light on it.... when uploading pix to either imageshack or photobucket, i make them 600x400...........but when i post the links on here, some, and not always the same ones, appear so huge on the forum as to be unusable.... now i've re-uploaded, re-transferred and re-posted several of them several times but the problem still persists.......... i thought it was a poor signal on my home pc, but the same thing happens when i look at them on works pc..........
does anyone know why this would happen? as i said, its different pix affected on different days..... is there a clue in the fact that it only seems to affect my pix? all other member pix appear to me to be perfectly sized.............   
cheers lads

Hi Billy
I use a free resizer from microsoft prior to uploading pictures to photobucket

never had any problems,

only thin i can say is resize them before you do any uploading , that way it is sure to work properly

hope this helps

Not a clue Billy   

I was using Flickr but they changed it all about some time ago and never could upload any pic's on here so i deleted my account. I must get a new one with another one but which one?

alan............cheers m8, didnt know about resizing before uploading, only the size options you can choose when about to upload... must look into that...
chris..........i've less than no clue m8 lol!! the process always semms to work ok but then i go i to see my pix and they're flamin huge    don't understand why its only a few of them though.....thought it could even be my camera settings...
can i ask you guys a favour...could someone look at my irish or main wrc collection and tell me if some of them are huge on your pcs's too?
thanks   

have a look at this,

Billy, all your collection threads have huge pic's in other than your Main collection and the Impreza's   

Just took a look at your Irish model collection. The only pictures that are huge are your ones hosted on Imageshack. The photobucket ones are displaying fine for me. I also use photobucket and dont resize them at all. Sometimes on the phone it cuts off the right hand side but definately nothing like is happening you. Ive never had a problem viewing them on a PC/Laptop

Is there an option to resize the imageshack photo, then copy across the new IMG code and see if that helps it. Because the images are hosted elsewhere and linked here, I cant set the max size of these images as they are not stored here

Ditto Brian

paul, chris, thanks for taking the time to do that lads...much appreciated...
alan, will have a gander at that site tomorrow, thanks again for the advice...
brian, well-spotted m8, i never even noticed that.... i think with all this new info i might eventually get sorted, though it might mean retaking loads of pix....doh!!!!!

cheers lads!
