How to Make Pics Open Into Full Size When Clicked

Welcome friends to a quick tutorial. I was asked by my friend @ninahaskin how to make a smaller pic clickable into a full sized pic.

First lets review how to make words into a link because it all builds on that.

I think my video makes it clearer:

Ok. Here is a link for the photo I dropped in:

Let's link that to the word Hello. Notice we only use the stuff between the parenthesis. Also notice there is no space between the right ] and the left (. Steemit just drops it down because it is long but it is written ](

[Hello](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYx1PQgbZbo5PJhkZn7NcoXdjHKdHiFy8twbpR3UkxGXw/P1150444.JPG)

Renders a clickable Hello

Hello

OK, now let's make the picture take the place of Hello. The photo becomes clickable.

You can also have text and a photo that is clickable.

I always wanted to make a picture of my post as you mean, but I am confused how to make it, and now thanks to your help may be useful for me. Thank you very much 🙏 now i want to try

Nice tutorial :) #steemiteducation too!!

Also, you can click on your mouse to open a photo in another tab. I listened to your video and had to turn my music off to hear you.....I wonder if there is a way to do both. Probably.

Thanks for doing these.

Are you saying my voice is NOT musical enough lol?!?

Yes. I think you should sing your lessons. That would be so much fun.

You are a fountain of useful markdown tips. Thanks Paul:)

Cool tutorial Paul, and a neat piece of markup code. I learned something new and useful. Thanks buddy.

Excellent tutorial! Thank you so much my dear friend Paul!

Great tips on how to do this... I've resteemed this so I can find it easily in the future. I think this is close to what I've been doing, but you've got clickable text & photo, so that's cool.

These are certainly useful tips Paul, I've actually been wondering how to make photos smaller. I've just been resizing them in photoshop, but now I don't have to :-)

woohoo lesson wizz daddy :D💗💗💗 <picks out her notebook and get em popcorn ready :D

You're awesome! @old-guy-photos I'd reblogged right after seeing your post to keep this useful tutorial nearby but forgot to take time to thank you properly. My apologies!
Doing so now:
((Thank you very much!!!))
