Mr. P., regarding posting and pic-size restrictions . . . April 20, 2021 1:54 pm DanS

Dunno if this is needed, and I think I’ve said this before but repeats don’t really hurt that much. I have a template that works rather well for me (pointy brackets [greater-than & less-than] are replaced here with squirrely-brackets):

{center}{img src=“image url” height=“300”}{/center}

{font size=“1” color=“D0F5A9”}Image credit{/font}

I only attack one of the picture’s dimensions (height), as these values are usually connected to keep the view from skewing. If needed, though, limitations to both height and width can be used (doing so may require but a modicum of math).

{center}{img src=“image url” height=“300” width=“400”}{/center}

{font size=“1” color=“D0F5A9”}Image credit{/font}

Adding size restrictions restricts for the post only. When right-clicking on the result to open a pic to a New Tab, it should open in the New Tab at its original dimensions.

BTW – great volcano pics! Thanks for sharing.
