Sizing Image in Link

Robert Spencer

Hi my primary use of smugmug galleries is to share on internet forums. When I view my images on the fullscreen slideshow I like the size and see it as best. My problem is that I have not learned to control size to best advantage.
When I upload the image size is too large to link to full size but when i reduce to the next size smaller ( which is Large) the image is not big enough to look its best.
How can I control the size of the image in a link to appromimate that seen in fullscreen slideshow? Thanks. Bob

I'd recommend using custom sizes; that's what I use in my blog.

Hi Denise. I have used that method in the past with good results but it no longer works when I attempt to post on the DPR forums where I frequently display my photos. I wish I knew why. Thanks for the imput. Maybe its just that site that doesn`t recognize it.

UPDATED: I discovered that my link did not work because I used an upper case X (times or by) instead of a lower case x to express dimension. After correcting that there is no problem.
Thanks you again Denise. Your information was valid and accurate. Take care. Bob
