Hey guys, I didn't know where else to put this..

I've noticed people put "thumbnails" in their posts - a smaller version of their picture, with the pixel sizing on the bottom, and the thumbnail is a link to the larger version...

How do you do this??

Thanks in advance! :happy05:

I actually think it's a feature of their image hosting site, where it serves an full scale image from a page on their server and a thumbnail for a page from anywhere else. It cuts down on the bandwidth they use.

You could also do it yourself. Basically, include an image here that is a thumbnail and link to the full-size image. You would still need a place to host the image though.
