Is there an easy way to resize images using BBCode?

<Snipped quote by Antarctica>

Your only options are to manually resize it or trying to break the system with [color=#2e2c2c][/color] with tables. That color code is the color of the reply background, so by making junk lines (use whatever key it doesn't matter) you could possibly force the image to resize. It is a very code dependent hack, though. Tables and the guild's BBCode are extremely finnicky, so I'd personally just try manually or by using a program/site to resize the image first.

@Kuro

Fair enough. I was able to resize the image a fair bit using GIMP so it doesn't flood the screen, hopefully.

I tried using tables to do it, a la Roach's guide, but it seems to not have formatted the image down. I'm actually trying to shrink the image in particular, not make it bigger.

Trying to size images for a post. However, I can't seem to resize images even using BBCode hacks that I've seen utilized here on the forum. I'm stuck between either meticulously resizing and cleaning up images in an editor or leaving it a blurry, all-too-large mess in the post. Is there something I'm missing?

For those of you that haven't chosen a color tag for your dialogue, if you could get that to me before the introductory post, that would be great. So far, I've got Tally's and Bean's.

Intro

A big warm welcome!

If you’re looking to hook up with someone on a slice of life RP, I’m here.

Happy RPing!

@themaybreeze

I wouldn't be against doing a slice of life RP, sure. I have a character for it.

Lamplight

@Passable Writer I see you took a little bit of a different direction from what we discussed. I like it. Approved.

And with that, the stage is set. After I do some testing and collating of your characters' pertinent information, I'll make an introductory post for you over the weekend, so keep your eyes peeled. Hopefully, I can give you all an enjoyable campaign.

Necrogenesis: A Not-So-Typical Zombie Outbreak [SHUTTERED]

"I-"

"Hello and welcome to the Lazaretto congratulatory cruise - and the inaugural launch of the HSS Panacea! I'm Atlas, one of the many attendants you'll find on the cruise ship over your two week stay!"

Atlas is dressed in non-standard variation of a concierge's uniform - high-rising shorts, a sailor's shirt that bore his midriff, and a hat overflowing with ombre curls that fell to either side of his shining face. He flashed an overly white smile, causing the old man's brow to wrinkle. Whether he just got them cleaned or they happen to be veneers is anyone's guess. His stance suggests a coy playfulness that will only be exacerbated once he's aboard the ship and in the pool.

"Do you have your credentials ready for verification, sir?"

Without a word, the old man searches a pocket on the front of a gaudy suitcase that was nearly half his slowly diminishing height before brandishing his ID and passport for the concierge to examine.

"Okay, let's see... Oh! Cabo? Oh my gooood... I've been wanting to go there for a minute! I hear the Mai Tais at the Mango Deck are to die for! Well, looks like everything is in order! You'll be in Room 302 on the third floor. Don't worry, we'll have our staff escort you and help carry your things!"

Before the old man is able to respond, Atlas snaps his fingers, and several of the cruise ship staff descend upon him like flies from out of the blue, disappearing him up the steps and onto the ship proper. Tony watches this happen in real-time, and as he sees the old man scale the stairs in bewilderment, another figure catches his eye for a moment.

Standing on the deck of the ship and leaning over the side, a man wearing a hooded sweatshirt seems to be staring at him.

"Hello and welcome to the Lazaretto congratulatory cruise - and the inaugural launch of the HSS Panacea! I'm Atlas, one of the many attendants you'll find on the cruise ship over your two week stay!"

Atlas smiles wide, his face radiating as much enthusiasm as the sun does light.

@Antarctica After thinking about it, I will not be joining the rp. So good luck with the rp.

@Theyra

No problem - thank you for letting me know.

The Campfire

Heaven is a campfire beneath dead stars.

T h e C a m p f i r e

This is just an exercise and catharsis for me. Perhaps it can be a catharsis for you, too. PMs only.

Your character approaches a campfire in the void. The flame is warm and inviting, and should you have need of it, food and drink are always provided.

Stay awhile, and let them approach. Gaze upon the stars, whose deaths are like fireworks - entrancing from a distance, fading in the dark.

Speak what you must, and they will listen. Invite them to speak, and hear their acceptance.

Be alone or not - the world is frozen here. You are embraced.

I was in a position where I could lurk but not post and was worried I'd lose my go to color but I see its still safe

So I shall write my dialogue like this.

@Tally Dor

Okay, so you're taking F26522. Noted.

I plan to mark all these down once I start collating all the pertinent information for each character.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Per Enmuni's sheet, I'd like to inform you that vampires within this world function differently from what is typically portrayed, so if you happen to see one in your investigations around the region, just be aware.
