Seems Photobuckets "quick link" features have changed and no longer automatically copy when left clicked. Anybody have other issues with changes in photobucket? Figured I'd start this page as a place to test posting photo's and links from photobucket or other image hosting sites.

How do you fix this mess?

scondon · « **Reply #5 on:** January 18, 2009, 04:59:50 PM »

Are you talking about size and/or cropping, Brent?

Well this scan is from photobucket & I'm not sure what to do so it can be read.

Anyone using Firefox browser can zoom in using cntrl-+ . I'm sure you can zoom in using other browsers as well. I can read it plain as day when I zoom in on it.

Another option is to post a "direct link" from photobucket so others can download the full size article. If you have other items in your photobucket account that you don't want made public you might not want to choose this option unless you are familiar with how to make files public or private in photobucket.

Now post the whole article so I can read it again

OK, I'll post the article on MRiecks original primary chain discussion. I can't read the damn thing on here though.

Which browser are you using (Explorer? Safari? Firefox? other?). I promise you will know Kung Fu before we are done here. Or at least be able to read the article posted here

Windows Internet Explorer.

I have Windows on Internet Explorer. That Ctrl+ thing worked for this whole site overall, but not on that picture/article. It also doesn't work on many websites. (I use a magnifying glass to read most websites/forums now).
If I wanted to have people read that article, I'd have a shot like the one posted, then crop the beans out of it and have a CU of the top half of the information and another CU of the bottom half.

Ctrl-+ is a function of the IE browser i.e. it expands(zooms in) on the "browser" window you are viewing. Since it is a function of the browser, not the website one is viewing, it should work with any and all websites. Can you give me an example of a website where ctrl-+ does not work?

You are correct that using this function will not expand only the picture as that is a "website" specific function. Some websites will have small pictures that allow the page to load faster but give you the option of clicking on the picture to enlarge/expand it or have a high-res version pop up in another window. You cannot "expand" Brent's article, but you CAN zoom in on it to read it.

BW,

The keys on the keyboard that control the browser zooming functions are all in a neat little row just after the 1-9 keys.

ctrl- + : zooms in

ctrl- -(minus key): zooms out

ctrl- 0(zero): returns window to original size

Did you shoot that pic yourself, Greg? If so, how the #$%* did you get in the country?

Well done Sean, I've learned something new for the day! I quess I can take the rest of the day off, huh?

Getting into that country is easy. It's getting back into this one where the sweating happens.

Ctrl+ doesn't work at Cycle World Forums, Enfieldmotorcycles forum, nor Adventure Riders Forum.

Now you've piqued my interest, Ernie. When I visit those forums Ctrl+ works fine. Some sweet looking bikes on the Enfield site BTW, thanks for listing it
