The image above was resized to the usual 1024.

 

What is the exact link you tried to post? Tip: if you click the little < > icon, the post editor will create a "code" box that you can paste your URL, without the forum trying to interpret it.

 

 

Your URL will be formatted something  like this when you're done:

Sigh. While photobucket does make it very hard to get a non-script, plain .jpg copy of a full-sized photo, the last piece of frustration was here :-(

 

I found a setting that affected attachments that was resizing them. It looks like the horizontal and vertical maximum dimensions were swapped. I set both limits to be the same (1600 pixels, now). 

 

This would not affect "hotlinked" images that are hosted elsewhere and simply displayed here. I prefer that method for a variety of reasons, but the limitation on attachment sizes no doubt has been the cause of much of this frustration. 

 

Sorry for the troubles, but thank you all for your patience in chasing this to the bitter end!

 

Note: previously attached photos cannot be "un-resized."

As many people have complained the "new" photobucket is not very friendly. The old links are gone and the new site overides any size changes you think you've made.

My photos aren't all that exciting or brilliant. I'm just annoyed I can't get transfer the sizing and make it stick..

Anyone who wants to can send me a full-sized photo and I'll do my best to take a nice slice
