 * Hello folks,
 * This is my problem: let’s assume I’ve got a picture on my server with a 640×480
   resolution, and I would like to post a clickable preview inside an article (using
   WP 1.5) but of a smaller size and with a little border. How could I do that? 
   I know that it’s a newbie question, but I would really like to know all the tags(
   border size, border colour, etc…) that can be used for pictures in a preview/
   link.
    Thanks for your help.

 * Enable File Uploads by going to Options/Miscellaneous and selecting “Allow File
   Uploads” and entering the correct values. Once done, go to the “Uploads” button
   in your admin toolbar, select the image you want to upload, and choose the thumbnail
   size. The appropriate HTML code will be given to you after uploading.

 * Uhm… The code that it gives to me is:
    `<img src='http://www.mywebsite/wordpress/
   wp-content/images/thepicture.JPG' alt='What I want' />`
 * and it’s not a preview of the image, but it’s the image resized to 200px. What’s
   wrong in the code then?
    I want a thumbnail that when you click on it a new page
   open up with the full size image.

 * er well just use ftp… and go see what the default naming convention is for thumbs…
   it should be in your wp-content folder

 * My apologies, for some reason I though thumbnail generation would be automatic(
   I always post small pictures and leave the pictures to my gallery, but never 
   link the two). You may want to take a look at this plugin: [http://davidseah.com/projects/lzil](http://davidseah.com/projects/lzil)(
   it mentions being tested in WP v1.2.2, but it should work in v1.5 as well).

 * This is what I’ve asked for at the beginning:
 * `[<img src='http://www.mywebsite/wordpress/wp-content/images/thumb-whatever.JPG' img border='0' style='border:1px solid #000000; margin:2px' alt='Hello'/>](http://www.mywebsite/wordpress/wp-content/images/whatever.JPG)`
 * Thanks for your help anyway!

 * you can just create that for images in your entries via css like this…
 * `
    .entrytext img { border: solid 1px #000; }
