Also found a funny cartoon on the subject:

Click to enlarge


OK, insider joke.

I've used Imgur as a picture host in the past and edited my links to scale the on screen image to 640x640  (by appending a lower-case L to the filename in the image link).   But I'd like to display smaller images which can be enlarged by clicking as it was in the quoted post.

Can this be done using an image host?  I did look about for the answer so I hope I didn't miss something too obvious.

Not that I'm aware.  If you find a way, let us know.  Be pretty cool!

Updated OP with a new online site for reducing photo resolution, the easiest I've seen.  Just upload your pic and go with the defaults.  Works just fine for jpg's.  Haven't tried the other formats, but should be the same.

I've stumbles on tapatalk and sharing pics is pretty easy. It asks for file size
small 384x512
medium 768x1024
original 3024x4032

Tapatalk uses links, not attachments, so not subject to file size restrictions.  So use what's best to your eye.  I'd guess small or medium.  Original resolution would be very large for a post.
