    First things first, go to your user CP > Edit options > make sure that your message editor is WYSIWYG

    Select the sizes drop down from the WYSIWYG interface

    Colours will look like they work as you type in your WYSIWYG editor but won't actually work in reality.

    I use a complicated method and it doesn't work if you can't link your pictures over the web.
    1. Make a small copy of the picture (the thumbnail)
    2. Upload both pictures to your web disk
    3. Click -button, insert url of the thumbnail picture
    4. Click -button and insert url of the big picture

    Now you have two codes, image-code(3) and link-code(4), if you look at the link code, you see the url is there twice.
    3) [-IMG]http://www.students.tut.fi/~poutiaij/02.jpg[/IMG]
    4) [-URL="http://www.students.tut.fi/~poutiaij/01.jpg"]http://www.students.tut.fi/~poutiaij/01.jpg[/URL]

    5. Replace the latter url (in link code) with the image code.

    Now you have linked the big picture and the link's "name" is a thumbnail image.

    [-URL="http://www.students.tut.fi/~poutiaij/01.jpg"][-IMG]http://www.students.tut.fi/~poutiaij/02.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

    Easy as pulling teeth from a bear.

    But if you're a lazy git just click - button to attach the pic from you home computer and it does the thumbnailing automatically. :

    You can't make a person love another person. You can only pray for it.
