	I attached a picture to a message and the message editor reduced its size by about five times. Using the message editor to increase the size, by dragging the corner, just made it blurry and hard to read any text in the picture. Is there a way to add pictures at the original size?

	SolarEagle is right - this is your best option for high resolution image files.

	This has bugged me for years! What is the (or Why is there a) limitation on posting quality images on CR4? __________________ Teaching is a great experience, but there is no better teacher than experience.

	I've posted many pictures & take the same approach as with other web sites. Keep the resolution & thereby the file size reasonable, high enough to make the image clear but low enough to keep the file size down. The web master or other administrator is concerned about memory usage. __________________ I didn't have a really important life, but at least it's been funny (Lemmy Kilminster 1945-2015)
