How to post an image on blogger in full size

In this post I will explain why Blogger scales your images down and how to post an image in it's original size in Blogger.

Why this happens? By using a Blogspot blog you receive an option to upload photos directly to your blog from the editing interface. The photos will be stored in your Picasa account. However, Blogger restriction for this is that it doesn't allow you to hotlink to your photos in full size - the maximum hotlink size of your image is 800x800.

Even more. By default, even if you choose "Large size" when you upload your photo, it will still return you a link to 400x400 images, and it especially hurts if you want to post some code snippets or precise pixel images.

What to do? There are some good news though. Most of the Blogger posts aren't more then 800 pixels wide (and even if they are, you should always think about how it's gonna look on a display of someone who doesn't have 1600x1200 resolution - you also have right and left columns that hog the display space, right?)

To make your images/pictures/photos look fullsize in your blogger posts you need to edit the link to this picture. Once you upload an from the editor interface, the code for the image will look like this:


Where UUUUUUUUUUU, V, WWWWWWWWWWWW, XXXXXXXXXXX, YYYYYYYYYYY and ZZZZZZZZZZ will be some mixed digits/letters.

See the text s400 that I've highlighted here in green? That's what you need to change. Change it to s800 and you are done.

This guide will help you to post full-sized images to your BlogSpot blog, if these images have less then 800x800 resolutions. If you need to post a bigger image — use services like imageshack. There is a great list of image hosting sites available on the Blogger templates blog. I wouldn't recommend to use Photobucket as it has some PhotoBucket image hosting issues though.

That's it. Enjoy.

How to Suppress a Blank subreport (or hide a subreport having no rows)

I had a problem that I wanted to Hide a subreport in my CrystalReport document when it is empty.

I tried many options but this one which I found on a forum worked really fine.

1. Put the subreport in its own section (add more sections in the section expert).

2. Right-click the subreport and select Format Subreport.

3. On the subreport tab check Suppress Blank Subreport.

4. Then go back to the main report and for the section holding the subreport, right-click the grey area to the left and select Section Expert.

5. Set the option Suppress Blank Section.
