Issue Uploading Images

**GrowlingCupcake** · December 8th, 2018, 07:58 PM

I've tried multiple times but every time I upload an image to my album, it is automatically resized to a tiny little thing. Did I accidentally mess up a setting?

Edit:
Both of these are the same source image

Edit2:
Also, shouldn't I be able to put Imgur pictures in the [img ] [/ img] tags?

The link to imgur does not seem to be a direct link, if you right click the image and copy the image address it should work.

The album issue I don't know about, I had some issues with sizing images there too when I uploaded 6 or so months ago, can't remember if I figured it out or not.

THANK YOU. That was driving me nuts since all my images keep getting resized here.

I guess my question now is: Why do images I add to my albums end up so small?? It used to work just fine.

I've discovered that when I add a image to my albums from my phone, it ends up super tiny, but if I do it from my computer, it generally doesn't get so shrunken. This is even true of images that I crop down to a manageable display size on my phone first before uploading, let's say 600x800, which the forum's uploader will turn into something that's more like 150X200. I can't explain why that happens, only just letting you know that maybe you should try from a computer instead of a phone/tablet?

How strange, I came here to ask about the same issue. I have been uploading from iPad and the size reduction thing is really annoying. I don’t have a computer and wonder how I can fix this.

Test: using postimage link

^ I just replied on the other board to say just that. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page on your iPad there should be a link that says 'Full Site' or something. Click that, and you should be fine. I've only ever uploaded one pic to LHC, which came out huge and that was from my tablet

Thanks again, I was using the full site on iPad, so it wasn’t that. But I think I’ll have to ditch postimage and the folders here and just start using imgur.
It’s a good enough solution for now.

Now off to check the other thread.
