    How to make attached photos appear bigger

    So, you made the attachment OK, but after posting, all you can see is a tiny little thumbnail that needs clicking to see the picture bigger - and even then it is not full size

    View you post (I'd suggest in another browser tab or window so you can also refer to this text)
    1) Click on thumbnail to View the attached image in a Lytebox
    2) With mouse over picture; Right click and select Copy Image Location (or similar) from the pop up menu (this puts the image URL on the 'clipboard')
    3) Close the Lytebox
    4) Re-open the post with Edit Post button,
    5) Put the cursor between text and attachment, (make a bit of room with a couple of carriage returns)
    6) Click the little Insert Image icon
    7) Paste the image URL into the pop up box, this is easiest done by just using Ctrl + V on your keyboard and click on 'OK' button
    8) You should now see the image URL between IMG and /IMG tags, so just click Save button

    This is a very common process to overlook, so if left, you may find that a moderator has done it for you.
