Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you put these instructions up here. *They are great. *I just wanted to add that extra little bit.
I agree... I'm pretty good about resizing my pics before uploading them to photobucket but I know I forget every great once in a while. THOUGH... some people don't know how to resize pictures believe it or not. My sister is one of these people and she drives me nuts cuz' I try and teach her and there's just nothing going on in that brain of hers. *

Dan is correct...how about admin limit the size that way we all don't get stuck downloading 3 mb pictures!
Unfortunately, they can't control the file sizes of linked images. *It's an honor system type thing. *One thing I did do because I got tired of only being able to read one response per page was disable signature displays from within my preferences panel. *Even now at 1680x1050 on a 22" display, with signatures on I still only get to read 1 or 2 responses before I have to page down. *I wonder it we can get those with multiple signature images to put them side by side instead of top to bottom?

I'm on a 19" with 1280x1024 and I had to test it out... never thought it was an issue having to scroll down to see more than 2-3 posts at a time. I never even thought twice about it actually. But since it is an issue I could get rid of the "medal"... I think it's ugly having them side by side so I don't do it. Again, like I said... never thought it was an issue... sorry.

Don't change it just for me. *I use a slightly different set of rules than those who don't write web applications. *I have to turn off certain parts of my brain depending on where I am and I think the majority don't have problems with big signatures. *I like seeing pics of everyone's pups.

I have tried creating a photo album, but the pictures are not showing up. I follow the directions, but cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.
Any ideas?
