I wouldn't worry about the large image resulting from the single click.  It helps us expand bits we want to look at as well as being able to examine the minutia in the background.

Thanks John,

You'll have noticed then the self-same self-taken photograph.


David A,

Thanks Dave. I'll leave the photo size as is then.

To one and all, Sometime over the next few days, I'll set up the camera on the garage, sorry, workshop, and let you all see my dump! I'll stick them in the 'Our Shop' section.
Regards,

Peter,

The problem with loading pictures as you have, is that they take up space actually on the website.
If you can open your own photobucket account (free), and put your pictures on there, then when the link is posted in your text, and your post is opened, the website goes and gets the picture and displays it.

By doing it that way, the site won't get overloaded and so won't slow down.

If you get too many people posting pics under their posts, eventually, more storage space will have to be purchased to cope with it all, not a burden Eric should have to face, as he pays for this website out of his own pocket.

I was talking with Ralph the other day about this, and I think eventually he will be updating his 'how to do it' post on putting pictures into your posts.

Bogs,

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks.

Now, I used to have an account (or two, or possibly more) which allowed one to upload ones own stuff. It was free with the ISP account. I do know that something was cancelled - possibly on the secondary accounts, but I think the ancient original accounts, because of their age, do actually still work. Oh, well. More to look into. If not, then......

Peter.
