photos that enlarge, rather than link

Use a different hyperlink? just guessing but if you read below the hyperlinks it says for "forums etc..." or for "Blogs etc...) don't know if this helps.

 

This sounds right. I use Imgur and always use the BBCode link for message boards.

 

Can you use BBCode from a cell phone? like ['IMG'] ?

 

Post photo to imgur. Copy your imgur image .jpg link and paste it into the image link in beeradvocate forum. Bingo.

 

I don't know why Photobucket gets such a bad rap around here, I use it without any problems.

The link you want to use from Photobucket is listed as "Direct" on the right side of the screen. At least that's what I use and it enlarges the picture when its clicked on.

I hope that is helpful. It is rather annoying when you click on a picture and it brings you to a new website, instead of enlarging the photo.

 

Second that. I use the "direct" link as well, works great.

 

When you post an image to a image site, you generally have options such as:

Html for websites looks like this:

Code:

<a href="http://tinypic.com?ref=2lsxxch" target="_blank"><img src="http://i59.tinypic.com/2lsxxch.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a>

IMG code for forums looks like this:

Code:

[IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/2lsxxch.jpg[/IMG]

Direct link looks like this:

Code:

http://i59.tinypic.com/2lsxxch.jpg

The "direct link" is what you want

 

Click the image icon and past the direct link in it.

 

Testing out images

 

I want to test this out myself

 

On more try with my own pics.....seems to work without photobucket or imgur if you already have the pics posted on Facebook, it's as easy and opening in new window and then cut and paste the link using the " image button" (with the mountains and sun, to the right of the smiley face.)

 

Got it!!!

 

works with webstagram if you want to do the instagram thing.
