I need help with photobucket. I edit my pictures to 320 x 240. and "replace original". When I attach them to an Iboats post they appear nearly screen size. I know that's an annoyance and against rules so does anyone know how to fix it? Most pictures after a few days or hours are resized. I guess by a mod.

Resize them before you upload them to photobucket.

WHen you resize on photobucket make sure you have the box checked that has PIXALS NOT PERCENTAGES...... common error.

It could be that the larger size picture is still in your cache and when you return to the iboats post...it just reloads that previous version.

If you close your browser and then re-start it. you will find that the smaller picture will then show.

Most browsers are set by default to do this. If you re-visit the same page during one session; it will use the graphics previously loaded; saving time that would be spent to needlessly re-load them.

Hope you get it solved,

Chuck
