Easy instructions? No other forum requires that users upload photos to another site, resize them, and then download them to the forum. All you have to do on other forums is click in the attachment symbol by the post box, choose the image from your files, and it's done. Or you can copy an image and paste it in the message box.


That's correct... So for Nomad, you need to either post photos with file sizes less than 342kb and 800 pixels wide OR post a link to a website where they are hosted, and maybe resize to 800 (by adding =800x after the IMG in the tag) or do the steps mentioned above.

Believe you me, I have discussed this with Doug (BajaNomad) quite often, in person. He told me the changes are coming... that's been a few years now. Life does get in the way sometimes! Baja Nomad Forums began in late 2002 and Amigos de Baja went offline in 2003, which propelled Nomad into the #1 slot. That was 20 years ago... It's been fun but also rewarding to meet and make friends with so many, thanks to Nomad.

It is really easy to use Postimages.org for those who don't have another site to host the photo or want to downsize their images to 'fit' here. I also have offered to help anyone post photos who can't or won't learn the method. U2U me for extra help, I don't mind.

Hasta la vista,
David 'the' K :lol:

You don't need a third party "host" site to resize images. Most people have resizing software on their computer.
