Uploaded picture sizes help

Post by Donovan D »

A lot of my photos I upload or view gets chopped off on the right. So I cant see the whole photo, At first I thought thats the way the photos were, until I uploaded a few pics and saw that some of it is chopped off.
Is this browser settings or just the resolution of my screen?
Is there somewhere a "fit to screen" setting or automatic resize so that I can view the whole images on the threads ?

I think it's something to do with imageshack.

Ideally you should reduce all pics to 640x480 or 600x800 before posting them.

I use photobucket
I did not have this problem on the pc I used in UK, thats why I though it could be resolution of the actual screen
This happens with all photos on the forum not just the ones I upload

I will make the resolution of the pics smaller in future and see what happens

That is quite low. One of my laptops have the same. If the uploaded pic is 1024 x 768, it will be cut off, unless it is placed in the gallery, which would display it too fit.
