Using the built-in Attachment system will automatically append a small thumbnail that requires the member to click on to view at larger size. However, there is a trick that can be done to post a bigger Attachment without having to use 3rd party websites.

When you upload an image(s), and you then see the filenames of the uploaded image(s) as seen in this step:


You can right-click on those filenames to get the URL/Address. Copy the URL/Address and place it inside a set of [img][/img] tag. That way, the image will be displayed in the post at a normal size, as well as a thumbnail attachment.
