Help with pic and sizing

Post by charlie2 » Sun May 31, 2020 11:57 am

Can anyone walk me through getting a pic on taxi?

Is it still a size issue?

Thanx

you mean for your avatar?

if for you taxi forum avatar pic it needs to be 90x90 image

then you can upload it to here: https://imgbb.com/

then just right click on image and copy image url address.

in your settings go to avatar and type in 90 x 90

then paste the image url. then just submit and you should have an avatar.

They're also asking for an email address after I copy and paste the infor

I didn't set up an account, just uploaded a 90x90 pic, and did as Gavin said..

Oh... when you go to your avatar settings... choose "Remote Avatar" (not Gravatar nor Gallery)

Yes I got the remote avatar and 90 ×90 down.

It's just the correct url. They give me a choice of either 4 bbcodes or 4 html codes. I'm trying all but none seem to work. These are the embedded codes. Anyone have a clue?

just view image. open it up in new window. then right click on it and copy image address. use that address as the one they gave me was not working but if you click on image and get address from that it works.

I got it to work, but I had to host the pic on my website. I'm sure any hosting service works, less sure about uploading from a home computer.
