viewing albums in my profile

[tom37]

I'm just curious here, when I look at my albums the pics show up rather small.  Am I doing something wrong when viewing my albums. This is the size pic I get if I upload to my albums then copy and paste in to the img url and post. I thought I had read that the site resized the pics as they were loaded. The second pic is when I use the insert img tab and load from my computer.

I'm a little confused, if you are uploading from your PC to an album, why are you doing a copy & paste to the img url? You can copy & paste directly into your thread or reply. Have I misunderstood something? Help me understand the issue at hand. Thanks.

I just added a pic to (My List) and when I look at the pic there is opens in a new window that is a very nice size to view. Hopefully there is a way for the tech department to make viewing the albums the same as viewing pics in (My List)

It may be a way of saving time scrolling through pics, when you copy and paste, they are good size. But, it looks like you're working around it, and that's a good thing..

When we first switched over from the old site, we found that if we were to load a batch of qview to a album and tried to put it in a post. We had to open a second window to copy the url to the post where we were going to show the qview.

But when posting or replying to a post we can use the img tab and browse the computer and load the pic from there. That is what I have been doing, and my pics are filling the screen. Thats cool.

Tonight I loaded a few pics into a new album I made with a few pics of what I do at work. When I went back to look at my album the view was very small. My only reason for posting the same pic loaded two different ways was to show the difference.

Then I figured it was just that when using the albums, that the site was saving space and using small pics. BUT. When I added a pic to (my list) its much larger.

I think it would be nice to load a small album of say a smoker build, and be able to scroll to the pic i want and have a tab to add to a post. Maybe I am making it way to complicated.

Back to my original question tho.

If the album pics are going to be so small. Is it really worth having them there when its really hard to see them in any detail?
