I used Google to searched for your photograph (Kirkby-6347_zps0a2436d2.jpg), found the album (https://s1340.photobucket.com/user/stev ... 7.jpg.html), clicked on the picture (https://s1340.photobucket.com/user/stev ... 2.jpg.html) and then the download button:

You can probably start here Steve!

Copy the unadulterated image, paste it into imgur.com, get the address and paste that into the image tabs on LEC.

Well this is better but obviously not quiet there :banghead: went on the shared links box on imgur and the only option that worked (sort of ) is the BBCode :bonk:

You can resize imgur images by adding letters to the file name:

s = Small Square (90×90)
b = Big Square (160×160)
t = Small Thumbnail (160×160)
m = Medium Thumbnail (320×320)
l = Large Thumbnail (640×640)
h = Huge Thumbnail (1024×1024)


So taking your 3000 pixel wide image at https://i.imgur.com/BqZNOwH.jpg above, I added an 'h' to display 1024 wide https://i.imgur.com/BqZNOwHh.jpg
