Hey was just wondering wat the max image dimensions are for in a thread? In my dynasty i dont want the forums to scale down my images because they are too big.

Thanks

When the forum scales down the pics, you can click on them to get the fullsize pic :wink:

yeah, but thats really annoying because you would have to click on something instead of scrolling (lazy, but that extra step..) and u cant see the good resolution and detail of the image until u click on it..

It's done for good reason, to preserve the layout which would always get messed up when someone posts an image that's 2000 by 1500. But we'll look at raising the limit a bit.

yeah i completely understand what you mean. cause there are images that can stretch the page and stuff and it gets annnoying... hm u already said that oh well. lol

raising it would be good...
i guess it also depends on what resolution you have as well? because some people are 1240 while i have like 1610, and thus we see things differently so what stretches for them may not stretch for us

I think a lot of people are still on 1024x768. There's probably some still on 800x600 but not nearly as many these days, so it's usually safe to design for 1024x768.
