Posting giant photos

ES, see if this works ok. Instead of a direct link to the photos I've used the miniature link.

This works on my Android phone and on my desktop.

Remember Orchid Board runs on very old software, and it is unlikely to get upgraded. It's my favorite orchid forum so I'm willing to put up with the glitches.

I will have to play around in Flickr to change my settings or figure out how to thumbnail without waiting for the forum to upload images

I will apologize, since my post above was one of the ones that made note of how your pictures are very, very large. I did not mean to make you feel bad, and, hopefully, you will figure out the solution, so I can continue to read your posts AND see your photos!

The photos came through fine for me, too. Smallish size in the post (thumbnail?), but I can click on it and it opens in a new window in a larger, more comfortable size, but still smaller than my screen size. Again, I'm using a desktop computer, Windows 10.

If you click again on the photo after it opens in a new window, they probably get much larger than your screen.

I believe most of the photo storing/sharing sites have this thumbnail function available.
