[TUT] How to resize images in your post, when they are too big. - Finesse God - May 14, 2014

Not sure where I should be posting this so I'm just putting it here in the hope that a Staff member will move it to the correct section.



I see a lot of users on HF posting images which are way bigger than what they should be.
For example, this thread: https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=4226394

Images like these (spoilered because it's a huge image):
Spoiler (Click to View)

Can easily be resized without any photo-editing programs or whatsoever. You don't even have to reupload the picture.
All you have to do is add a few things to the image tag.

Original, huge image:
Code

Would become:
Code
[img=300x500]https://i.imgur.com/98je5Ep.png[/img]

300 stands for the image width and 500 is the image height.

Simple as that. I hope that I helped everyone who didn't already know of this simple trick. Works on most MyBB forums.

Holy shit.

Thank you. I've just been resizing them on imgur but I actually like this a lot better.

Instead use Picresize.com ? that helps me a lot :)

Thank you for tut op, this should clean up some posts for people and make them more hq. I think this will help others.

Sorry for the double quote above. For whatever reason my computer decided to submit that twice.

Great Tut but it's in the help documents... https://hackforums.net/misc.php?action=help&hid=7
(and everywhere else)

Like many other people, I didn't even know it was in the Help Docs.

Which is why you're supposed to read it fully :P

Implying that only 2 out of 10 members have fully read the help documents.

I think, you guys should stop disrespecting threads. This is a very nice thread, a very nice one & you are saying some words from your own world "Instead use Picresize.com".

I just LOLed at that, really man, That's insanely weird reply.

:D




Super awesome tut OP. I never knew this, Thanks for sharing this!

No one has much his much time to read each and every section of Help Docs. HF ones are too big.

Unless you are unemployed, expelled from college/school & insanely free.

:D

Great tutorial mate, thanks for sharing.


* - Coobro - May 20, 2014

This is actually quite handy because a lot of the people on here don't know how to resize their large images.

Nice tutorial and I hope you win the cash prize! :)
