Please somebody help me!
I would like to post clickable thubmnails from photobucket.
I've read and re-read the tutioral several times. I've tired several times.
Then I read a thread about the tutiorial.
Now I've read and re-read again and then it dawned on me in that thread I read something about having to create the thumbnail. Now I can't find that thread. Can somebody just let me know how to do this?
Thanks in advance. :-) |

Use this code:
[url=PAGE URL HERE][img]IMAGE URL HERE[/img][/url]
You need to already have a thumbnail size image available to view, and you place the image location in where indicated, then the web page to navigate to in the other spot. It's a bit on the manual side.
This is something called BBCode. I have an add in script for Flickr that generates the link codes for me.
Perhaps there is a similar one for photobucket.

Thanks spiff. I tired it and again got the full image. :-/
but tired it before you added in the part about having the thumbnail image. So, here's the biggy - how do you make a thumbnail? And do you store it on your computer or on the off site page?

I think hot linking just means your image is clickable as opposed to being static.
Static image from my flickr page, generated with the "insert image" icon above the message box:
Clickable thumbnail, using BBCode generated by the allsizes+ script:

Can photobucket give you a reduced size version of the image? That's what you need to use.

Just to clarify so you don't get the full size image posted.
[url=PAGE URL of full size image HERE][img]thumbnail IMAGE URL HERE[/img][/url] |

Hot linking used to be frowned on by other websites if you did it.....seems you were using someone else's webspace for your own, or something like that, I think. |

Like, I could load it twice and re-size one to use as a thumbnail? (or I could just get a flickr account) |

Or you could just pay $25 to DPC and keep your images right here, that's the easiest way.
