Hi,

I've been searching for 30 minutes now but couldn't find a FAQ here..

What I'm tyring to do:

Posting a thumbnail here, and when you click on it the big image will load.

I'm not new to forums, but most of the ones I've been using use BB Code.

I already tried



I'm really sorry I have to ask this and I bet the answer is soo simple or I've overlooked a fat sticky post about this. Sorry. ^^

it would be something like:



You'll have to make both the thumbnail and the full image, this forum does not automatically create thumbnails.

1. Can you have spaces in the URL?
2. You forgot the img tags
3. You didn't close the href tag either.

EDIT: Testing...

Hi,

I used the code in the code snippet, the
tags aren't displayed in the normal post.

I also tried to replace the Spaces with "%20" and it still doesn't work.

Try just putting your files somewhere else possibly

Like renaming them without the spaces

The same without spaces (Yes, I renamed and reuploaded them. )

Without www.


With www.


/edit: Great. It's ugly without spaces but it works.

Thank you very much!

The URL mustn't contain the % character. Spaces work fine though.

Try: [[/b]url=the_image_url][img[/b]]the_thumbnail_url[/img[/b]][/url[/b]]
