If I post up a picture, it shows as a little thumbnail looking thing that you have to be signed in to see.

How are you able to post the big, nice looking ones?

I am using a Samsong tablet 2 10.1, an AT&T 4G LTE tablet. (Signature says that). Is it possible with this device?

Thank you

Something like this? (this is a smaller picture).

The picture is hosted somewhere else, not on GJ.
Go to imgur.com and open an account. You can store 225 pictures for free. The website works with tablets.
There are other sites that offer free image hosting. Photobucket, flickr, etc.

Upload your photos to photobucket, I've got 750 pictures on there, doesn't cost a dime, and good photo size also, here's what mine look like, I'm sure you can change the size as well. Just cope the link on photobucket into the text box, and you're good to go.

I use photobucket. This is how they look when I save them as large

This is full size

I take them with my phone, email them to myself, then download them from the email to my laptop. Save to Photobucket and my hard drive. Kind of a long way to get there, but if I plug my iPhone into my laptop, it tries to update and restore everything. This is just quicker for me. Keith

Down load the photo bucket app to your phone then you can upload directly to photo bucket and you can skip the transfer to your computer.

Thanks, everyone for your help. I just now got a photobucket account. I can't figure out how to take the photobucket picture and put it here. This is what I get when I download from my tablet.....

On the right side of the PB page, in that box are like four links. Copy the IMG link and paste it here in the reply box when you make your post.

Photo bucket has an app now that let's you upload a large batch of photos all at once. I use it way more than I ever thought!!

I'd skip photobucket and the other image hosting sites and use Dropbox. Dropbox will store any file on their cloud website (including images) AND sync them among all your devices.

No need to go to a website to get your image. Just open your dropbox folder on any device you're using and "copy public link".

No thanks on DropBox, they are far too inquisitive for my liking, not just opening a simple account. "Uninstalling" them still left 256 files behind which were removed with an outside "uninstaller".
