You got it Howard!
Ralph missed that you posted in a non-Baja forum.

This is a lot of work!
It's only 8:27 in So. Cal. and I need a siesta after taxing my brain to do these photos.
You just had to add fuel to my mental fire by bringing up that damn highway 5! I guess I'm just a wussy amongst you men when it comes to trying to
preserve my camper! 
Hey David, does this meet with your approval or do I still have work to do?  )

There should be NO work Howard! Just FUN!!
All of your photos meets the Nomad (not mine) photo size limit of 800 pixels wide.
AS YOU DID on the first photo above, just click on the 800 pixel UPLOAD size OPTION... and from then on, all the photos you upload to Photobucket
will fit on Nomad and not stretch the screen wide.

Now I know that baja related questions are not allowed in this forum. Knowing how you love that dirt road, Howard, I could not help myself.

From one who has never posted a photo
I appreciate the effort many folks make to post pictures sized to work in this forum. I travel with a small laptop (13 inch screen) and with my
increasingly poor vision, I need to zoom in to at least 125% to read the text.
When someone posts an oversize photo to a thread, all posts get stretched to that width, and I have to scroll side to side to view
photos or read the text.
I promise I will learn how to add photos correctly before my next trip (late October), then I can complain righteously if I have to
keep scrolling or reduce my screen size!
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

I think now that Howard is so good at it, I'll just send him all my photos to post for me. Is that good with you Howard?
If I could only get him to use Facebook.........

I thought years ago that the issue of photos was going to be fixed so that direct posting could be accomplished. Some have the patience to upload
1000's of photos. I don't....I guess I could send mine to Howard as well....Hey Howard I have a tire track to post...can you help me out?

Doug was only able to modify the Nomad hosted photos from 50 kbs to 250 (I think it is) and allow multiple photos from that.
Getting larger file photos to the max is still an issue for some. I still find the service used by Baja Nomads like Shari as win win.... that being:
Photobucket.com, and it is so easy, once you set the upload options to 800 or 640, and you can enhance and add to them, as well. I posted the steps in
the Nomad Photo forum, first post.

How dare you hi-jack this very important thread? Just for the sake of having fun at my expense? OK, OK I will forgive you this one time for poking
fun.

Can some give a review on photo posting. I have the photo on photobucket but can't remember how to get it uploaded to BajaNomad. And I've done it
before too.

From the first post in the Nomad Baja Photo Gallery forum:
We can help! Here's the step by step using one of the photo hosting sites 'Photobucket.com':
UPDATED FEB. 2014
There are many photo hosting sites, Photobucket.com is one used by many here, it is free for basic membership and very cheap for advanced.
1) Create an album for your trip or subject on Photobucket.
2) Click Upload (top center) to transfer photos from your PC folder to your Photobucket album.
3) Click on the gear symbol on the right corner of the box you see on the screen...
4) Select 800 (full size) or 640 (large size) for Nomad posting...
100x75 is the Avatar size, fyi.
5) Click SAVE!
6) Select photos you want to share on Nomad (or other forums) by pressing the Choose Photos & Videos button (or for the entire folder of photos,
click Choose Folder).
Once done with uploading photos, make your post here on Baja Nomad and add photos using the IMG link from the choices of links for each photo in your
album. Copy and paste that link in your Nomad thread, double spacing between links. Add a caption to the photo if desired... Click Preview Post to
check your post... if okay, click Post Reply.

I've done it before. I think something changed in Photobucket.
Please walk me through it.
I am on Photobucket. I am on the "Recent Upload" page. I see the photo I want. I can select it. Now what?

Keep in mind that you can only post "links" by selecting the "Post Reply" button in the lower right below the last post or by using the "Quote"
button. That gives you access to the buttons that allow you to link photos, websites etc.
