Make a Picture Larger on Your Blog Post

Since some of you asked, here is a post on how to make your picture larger on your blog.

1. Upload the picture to the post.
2. Click the Edit Html tab.
3. Look for the code of the picture you just uploaded. Here's an example:
4. Look for the s400 code (this is Blogger's default large size).
5. Change s400 to s800. Here's an example:
6. Click Publish Post and confirm that the picture is 800 pixels.

(Note: Should your post margins be smaller than 800 pixels, parts of the picture will be cut off. Therefore, if you want to include a larger picture with each post, you will have to monkey with your layout margins.)

Thanks for the directions to make the photo's bigger, now how do you go about making adjustments to your layout? I would like to widen mine a bit.
