Thumbnail pics/ minimum image size /image hosting

increasing number of posts, which are not properly using picture hosting services which result in postage-stamp sized thumbnails which have to be clicked. New picture opens with all the dodgy spam and stuff:

Is there a way to technically block these thumbnail pictures and/or limit the size of pictures to a minimum of let's say 250 pix x200 pix?

    Agreed, having to click images and being belted with pop-ups etc is a serious PITA.

    I'm not sure how you'd go about blocking them, but a sticky on how to post images would be useful.

    Yes, it's a bit annoying. On a similar Note, is it possible to increase the Size allowance for Avatars?

    I for one am a big fan of those pop ups.

    I've learned how to pack on lean muscle, get fabulously wealthy in just a few hours a week, I've dropped three dress sizes, and now I have a magnificent Russian girlfriend on the way, ( I just hope Mrs C&D doesn't find out). :D

    The thought always came up that you'd wear dresses :D

    Here's an idea... STOP USING POSTIMAGE! It's terrible. I'd use imgur.com.

    Simple answer ? No.

    Only SiCo can alter anything here and he doesn't pop by too often...try and catch him on Facebook...

    Not quite the right thread but closest I could find ...

    I just spent probably a couple of hours trying to figure out how to post a YouTube video in the Collecting forum but finally gave up and just used the URL.

    Anyone know what the code is? It's not on the Help page. The recommended YouTube code didn't work. I Googled the BBCode ... didn't work.

    What I want is for it to display as a thumbnail you click .... like every other friggin' site seems to allow for.

    I can only apologise and say I wish I knew the answer... :# ...hopefully someone with more technical knowledge will reply - or maybe SiCo needs to upgrade the site to enable this...?
