I have found that the easiest way is to use photobucket. Just upload them there than use the direct link.

You can do the same thing using the link for the image in the SC gallery too if you already have the images there.

Just copy the url like this one

http://www.salt-city.org/gallery/fil...6_original.jpg

then paste it using the little yellow icon with the mountain and the sun.

I've been having trouble posting pics they all come up as thumbnails. I think I am doing the same thing I always have been doing but they just come up as thumbnails. Has anything changed?

OMG why is it doing this!!!

This might help. Links to photo bucket are not recommend. The reason is explained in this thread. http://www.salt-city.org/showthread.php?t=9173

You will need to use some kind of a photo/image editing program. Most pc's come with one. If not here is free online one. http://www.resizeyourimage.com/
Just browse for your pic on you pc once loaded then re-size it. When you get the size you want click the re-size your image button. Once it is done, just right click on the image and save to your computer. around 600 x ? is a good size.

The follow the instructions in the link provided below and upload to SC.

I see the confusion. There are two different galleries now. You are uploading your pics in your profile gallery, which is fine. When you do that you need to do what jnicho stated above.

If anyone wants a decent free photo editor, I've been screwing around with pixlr.com and it works decently well for standard stuff.
