I now bring the 4 Mbyte .jpgs from our camera into Adobe Illustrator, scale them to something like 30% or 40%, and then export as a 200 dpi or at most 300 dpi .jpg. That keeps file size down, but also makes the graphic display at reasonable size. You might advise those who can to do that. Maybe on the Forum page.

But, if you turn it to thumbnail, they will be tiny. Duffy's are tiny now. I'll try and click on them and see if the large version comes up.

Clicking on them brings up the full size image in a new window. As an aside, if they were just hyperlinks to an image elsewhere on the net and not uploaded as an attachment, I think they will still show full size. I have not tested that, though.

And, I can change the thumbnail size. I'll make it bigger. hmmm.... looks like thumbnails are generated when the image is uploaded, so my change will only affect future posts. But it's now set to 640x640 rather than the 96x96 it was when those images were attached.

I also resize pictures I intend to post, unless the size is necessary. DPI is irrelevant to how big they show up on the screen. A 1024x768 300dpi images will view the same size on screen as a 1024x768 100dpi image. Although I know DPI affects printing, it's still kind of irrelevant as that truly depends on the printer capabilities.
