Is there any way to resize an imgur.com image using the query string when I use it on a forum?

This image is too big for some forum and it ruins the pagination.

You can specify the small version of the image by appending s to its base URL.

For example, the URL of your original image is .
By adding s this becomes :

Some images may have an ultra-small version of the image, accessed by adding ss, thus making it , but your image does not have one.

Here is the list of all the modifiers for dimensions (not all are always available) :

s = 90× 90 = Small Square (as seen in the example above)
b = 160× 160 = Big Square
t = 160× 160 = Small Thumbnail
m = 320× 320 = Medium Thumbnail
l = 640× 640 = Large Thumbnail
h = 1024×1024 = Huge Thumbnail

It may depend on the type of encoding the forum uses.

On Stack Exchange you can use the line <img src="[url]" width="[nnn]"> to specify the size quite precisely.

eg
<img src="" width="123">

The advantage of this method is the full size image is available to anyone who needs to see it, by right-clicking & opening in a new tab.
