Trouble With Posting Thumbnails

  • stylin291 · Member ·

    Hi there all, This is my first post on this forum, so please be gentle with me. I’ve gone through all of the documentation, and searched through the forums, however, I’m still having problems using thumbnails within my posts.

    I can upload the picture fine, I choose “using thumbnail” and “linked to image”. I send it to my editor, and I see the thumbnail. I don’t really understand what to do from there. In the past, I’ve clicked on the thumbnail (within the editor), it opens full-size within that little editor, I right-click – copy and paste it in my blog, and then just manually re-size it.

    I can’t get by using this method anymore, as I’d like to upload multiple pictures in thumbnail format. I’m sure I’m missing something simple, but it’s truly eluding me.

    I thank you for your time and patience.

    I’m trying to understand this as wwell so bare with me.

    You can always “cheat” a little bit with your code to produce a thumbail. A thumbnail is always produced when a pic is uploaded and you can just add to the code to get it to come up.

    For example, here’s a picture that I uploaded for another thread.

    <img src=”http://drmike.wordpress.com/files/2006/04/testpic.jpg” />

    You can produce the thumbnail manually by just putting in ‘.thumbnail’ into the URL. For example:

    <img src=”http://drmike.wordpress.com/files/2006/04/testpic.thumbnail.jpg” />

    Hope this helps,
