i need help on how to post pictures like screenshots, i know how to take them and put them in paint but i dont know how to put them in a post on the website,
someone help me??
 
The easiest way is to upload them to a site like <a href="http://photobucket.com/login.php" target="_blank">http://photobucket.com/login.php</a> & then all you do is copy the Img link for whatever pic you have uploaded into a post.
 
photobucket is a good site and i use it, but if you don't want to register then use stuff like:

<a href="http://largeimagehost.com/" target="_blank">Large Image Host</a>

or

<a href="http://imageshack.us/" target="_blank">Image shack</a>
 
it works but look

<img src="http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g137/vengeance_02/images.jpg" border="0" alt="IPB Image" />

how do you make it bigger?
i tried resize to 75% of normal but it didnt enlarge it
 
My understanding is that if you wanted it bigger you have to go 100%+ to make it bigger. Anything under 100% will make it smaller.
So you have made it 75%, which is 25% smaller than it originally was.

What is the size of the original?

What are you using to take the screenshots - Ctrl+Prt Sc, or some program?

If it's just a resizing problem, you can use <a href="http://www.irfanview.com" target="_blank">Irfanview </a> (free software) which is very easy to learn & use (just open the pic with it, hit the 'B' button, and you get the window below when you click 'Set Advanced Options'). The original pic size is 498x542 pixels:

<a href="http://img107.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=21202_Irfanview_resize_396lo.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://img107.imagevenue.com/loc396/th_21202_Irfanview_resize_396lo.JPG" border="0" alt="IPB Image" /></a>


btw, Captain Sir Henry Morgan, I could not get the Large Image Host html code to work in this post <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

dont know the size of origional but i use just Print Scr to take escreenshots and they come up VERY big in paint but not here
 
To resize pictures you can also use a microsoft powertoy called <a href="http://download.microsoft.com/download/whistler/Install/2/WXP/EN-US/ImageResizerPowertoySetup.exe" target="_blank">Image Resizer</a>, all you have to do is save your picture in Paint, then go to were you saved it and right click on the image and then click Resize image.
 
Vengeance, that pic you have is listed at 140x93 pixels.

That may be the original size, or the host may have reduced the size (I am not familiar with their rules, and could not find them on the imagebucket site).

You can resize in Paint, but have to use percentages. The 'Image Resizer' tool sounds easier.

To get the pic size, just hover the mouse over it and some details will show up.


Good luck.
