looking at your image link it says

"http//i924.photobucket.com/albums/ad81/jagtony_photo/Etypereduced.jpg"

which implies that the photo on photobucket is being reduced and not presented here in its original size...

No offense intended but are you following the instructions on the welcome part of this forum? i followed them earlier today and it worked fine...

If you did follow the instructions then sorry you need someone with more knowledge than i have...

It just occurred to me - perhaps you copied the script in the "image thumb" field by mistake. That would cause this problem as it creates a much smaller "thumbnail" picture on this forum.

You need the link in the "image" field not "imagethumb"

Chris,

When I try to load the original size picture it state the image is to big so I have reduced it beforehand to 200 pixels.
I am probable doing it wrong so shall try again.

Regards

Tony
