"Please resize your images before posting them or utilize the forum's size modifiers (e.g. width=###) in order to make their display resolution smaller."

I did respond to the moderator who modified my message, but I did not receive in answer.

WHERE is this forum size modifier located? If I can change the width of the image, how is this accomplished?

Include the width value in the img tag, like so:

Code: [Select]

[img width=xxx]image url[/img]where xxx is the width in pixels.

When entering an image to display on the forum, you're using the [img][/img] tags. I suggest using the modifier "width=###" inside the image tag in order to prevent overly large images from cluttering a viewer's screen. Instead of [img][/img] try using [img width=300][/img], this makes the image smaller to most viewers (a user can always click on the image to view the full size). You can always change the numeric width value if 300 makes it appear too small (or large).

I followed your advice: it works very well (a numeric value of 500 seems to work much better if equations are involved).
