AHA Got it at last.

Uploading 'TO' photobucket is the key, not changing the size after.

Try again with changes to settings.

1 @ 1024



2 @ 800



3 @ 640

OK got it, now to start a proper thread. to see if it's 800 or 640.
Then delete them from photobucket and re-upload to the right size.

Photobucket are a right pain! Their sizing used to be to a certain fixed size regardless of what you sent them. Now they don't appear to offer a sensible fixed size and you are stuck with their "original" selection where you have to send to a fixed sensible size.

I'm going to give it one more go.

Have to change the setting in your profile for album upload size, but it's still hit and miss.

Deleted the album of the gunpowder set and they still showed on the forum.

I have deleted all AGAIN
going to close everythng till after supper and try again.

Think I'll open a Flickr account and start again.

Well thats not right.

I removed the images I had loaded with different size uploads to check on here,
Started to reload the show set and reached my upload limit half way through.
Deleted all the crud to free up space, still not enough room, moved a few of the images to set as album covers.
This photo of the DLM and Hunter was moved to where the test images were.
So it seems the img. link is not a link to a image but a link to placement of that image.

Have opened a third bucket account and loading to it at the moment.

Another change for the worst.

Used to be able to copy and paste the first photo link in a set and just change the image number, took no time at all to post a set of images.

Now the whole code is different per image so you have to post them one at a time.

More improvements, NOT, that make people post the url link instead of multi images suppose it gets more hits on their site.
