Picture Posting tips for newcomers - Freija - 02-18-2026

First of all, welcome to Rogue Nation!

Uploading pictures here is easy but might be a bit confusing? Here's how to make your uploaded pics show full size and not just a thumbnail:

  1. At the bottom of the post editor, drag a photo from your computer and drop it in the rectangular box. It (they) will automatically upload.
  2. Ignore the option to add your picture to your post.
  3. Preview your post. You will see a thumbnail at the bottom.
  4. Click the thumbnail - it should open in a new tab
  5. Copy the URL from the address bar in your browser of your photo
  6. Back in the post editor, click the picture icon in the toolbar and paste in the URL

That's it! Your image is now enbiggened!

If you don't want to click the picture icon, you can past the URL straight into your post if you manually add the bbcode IMG tags

Good job! That's really pretty.

No, the thumbnail cannot be deleted. It's all that people can see who aren't logged in to even know there's a picture in your post.

You can also use links to off-site photos if you don't want to see a thumbnail. Their visibility does not depend on being logged in to view.
