For All iBoat members using Photobucket to post pics. If you want all of your pics to be automatically resized to the iBoats preferred size of 640 x 480 do this...

When you are logged in to Photobucket (Original Version), in the upper right of the screen will be your login name with a down arrow. Click the arrow and click on Account Settings. In the Account Setting window, at the top of the window will be a menu ribbon with Album Settings, Click it. In Album Settings, at the top of the screen will be View Upload Options in Small Blue Print, Click on it. A window will open. Select the 640x480 radio button and click the save button at the bottom. DONE!

Now return to your Album, Hover over the pic you want to post in iBoats. A window like this will appear...

IMGtag.jpg
.

The Bottom Box is the IMG Code. Click on the box and it will Say "Copied". Now return to iBoats and Paste the code into your Post where needed.

From now on ALL of your uploaded pics will Automatically be resized to the preferred 640 x 480 size and be ready to be copied to iBoats.

So Easy, Even a Dumb Okie Like me can do it!!!!

Using Photobucket is easy as falling off a log, this dumb ol' Alabama redneck has been using it for the past 10 yrs.

If you can copy and paste, you can use Photobucket.

If you can't copy and paste go to youtube and watch the tutorials for it.

And if their autoresizing wasn't already cool enough, they also offer an excellent editing program to keep those secret fishing spots secret.;)
