Question regarding image posting

[ZirBronium 26]

Alright, so I'm trying to make a topic for my artwork in which I'm trying to link towards imgur links, with thumbnails on the actual topic so as to not swamp peoples' screens...However, it seems when I try to shrink the images down to a comfortable thumbnail size using the post editor, it'll just blow them right back up to full size as soon as I post. Is there a fix to this? Or is there an easier way that I'm just missing? Or will I have to manually create a hundred thumbnails for it to work?

 

Hoping this isn't a duplicate, heh.

Well, just try leaving them how they are. It may be easier. If not, don't use thumbnails at all, it would be easier in my opinion.

Most of my artwork is 1000x1000 or more, heh

The best solution is to use the attachment system to upload the full-size versions to MLP Forums instead of imgur. When you insert them into your post, they will automatically be made into clickable thumbnails, like so:

 

 

And you don't even need to leave this site to do that!
