Hey Dakkites,

I am having a hard time figuring out how to properly size the images I linked to a Battle Report I am writing, Does anybody have any advice? I have like 40~50 pictures, which takes forever to upload to Dakka-Dakka.

You can upload 10 at a time to Dakka, which isn't too bad. Alternately, you can upload all of them to imgur and just choose the "large thumbnail" size option, which automatically resizes it.

It worked out all right. The sizing/placement of the images was slightly different between the preview of the post and the actual post, so I will take that into account if I ever do this again.

Also, there are plenty of ways to make the images themselves smaller. The Gimp is an open-source version of photoshop, and even MSPaint has the power to scale images. No reason you've got to upload giant pictures in the first place.
