Ah it appears to have worked. Hear a few pics of newly framed prints and 1 piece of original art by Boo Cook.  Just click on the 3rd one down, the 1st 2 are missing the main wall pic

Yes! That worked. Nice to have some original art on the walls. Thanks for sharing!

No probs. It's nice to share it with people who understand what it is. That igmur thing is great. Never come across that before. Thanks for suggesting it.

I have couple of other pieces of Boo Cooks work not yet framed and a few sketches he's done over the yrs. It was fab to meet Boo and his Mrs, they were very warm and friendly and I have very fond memories of those Thought Bubble experiences. Anyway, cheers all and thanks for the welcome. I've had a fab day today meeting you. Cheers

If you scroll down the links options they have a specific "forums" link and it posts you pictures directly on the page.

If you want the image to show up on the page here, then you do this:

1. Open the imgur page (e.g. https://imgur.com/a/XpLXdYC)
2. Right-click the image and select Open image in new tab
3. Copy the URL (e.g. https://i.imgur.com/svg3LAa.jpeg) of the new tab
4. Click the little Insert an image button in the forum posting interface
5. Paste in the URL you copied
6. Adjust width to something sensible (maybe 500 or so)
7. Post when ready:

Oh good glad one of the old hands stepped in to help - I'm fairly new here and have been manually resizing things to paste in like an eejit. Like those Boo Cook pencils and having the original page gives a nice insight into the method. Plus the page is pretty big!

Yeah, I love Boo Cooks style, very energetic and really jumps off the page. For me he really epitomises Dredd. It was worth going to Thought Bubble just for that alone

In danger of being a tech-nerd, but:

1. If you resize using the forum interface, then the image is still actually the original size behind the scenes, so if you right-click to either Open image in new tab or to download it (Save image as...) then you get the whole thing.

2. If you manually resize the image smaller prior to posting (say, to imgur), then you're saving everyone some small amount of download time. (But then, I remember the OG Internet when your mum could cripple your computer by emailing you full size photos.)

Thanks for the tips!
