Clickable thumbnails my way

[Hagar]

It seems some people still have problems getting their heads round this. Let me try to explain how it works.
It's exactly the same principle as posting a link to the image like Click Here
This is the code for the above link:

Code: Select all

[url=http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/Img_5802ashm.jpg] Click Here[/url]

but using a smaller version of the image (the thumbnail) instead of the words like this:


First you need to upload your full-sized images & smaller thumbnails in the usual way. It helps if the thumbnails have the same file prefix as their full-sized counterparts. I've uploaded 4 sets of images like this.



The first one is a full-sized image so copy the URL but without the [img ] brackets & paste it into your topic like this. --->

Found a new way to show of your photographs?

What a pleasant surprise Hagar. Your guidance and input is always appreciated, regardless of where it shows up at the V.  :)

[Sytse]

They do if you use the automatic IrfanView feature.  

Cool!  8-)

Thanks Hagar,
the way I did mine was as per Clips info.

Really do not need to show the small icons, just the small red cross in a square is OK for me.

Clicking the crosses on my pc and of some friends works fine, the big fotos show up.

Did you try mine, did they work on your PC?

Thanks              luke

If you're ok with red crosses, why not just give the link?  ;)

[luke]

what do you mean by "give just the link", which one & will it be clickuble?

[Sytse]

Just the link to your uploaded picture without the image tags ([img]), and yes, it will be clickable.

[luke]

and why not if it works, thank you Sytse

But wonder why the crosses are clickable on my PC and to some friends, and yet not on yours?

[luke]

Hope managed it the proper way now, THANKS to Hagar & Sytse, BUT the last cross below works on my PC and just now 3 friends confirmed OK on theirs too, WHY?

Now, what's wrong with Red Cross?

I can click on the red crosses and then the image shows up, so it works. It's just more work than giving the link and it looks stupid IMHO.  :)
