Am I missing something?
No...I am. I post 500px max. But I don't know how to do the thumbnails. Help?

I click on the attachments link(paper clip icon) at the top of the message box. But this only works if you're uploading from your computer's hard drive, not an external site like photobucket etc...that must be what you are doing, no? Then again, if your photos are larger than 1600 X1200, you'll have to resize them before uploading as city-data will only resize pics that size or smaller. This might be a PITA for some folks, so I'll just need to deal with it

It ain't a big deal, but if you post them as thumbnails, you can fit more into your post and people can just open up the ones they want to see instead of scrolling through a giant page of photos, trying to find one...

Ahhhh...that's the problem, then I have them pulling from Flickr. I try to keep them under 500 pixels wide and only 5 or 6 per post for that reason.

Great photos around Austin! I can now see it is the things around Austin that it offers, much moreso than the city itself.

A handful of pics from walking around downtown on Halloween, pre-festivities. Austin's skyline keeps getting better. More photos are posted here, but most of the good-ish ones are posted below.

It's amazing to me how many people don't know about, or take for granted, McKinney Falls.
