Tumblr: How to use high-res photos in TEXT posts?

since there is no answer ins similar posts at stackoverflow, I am posting this...

When I post a TEXT post in tumblr, my images get downsized. How can I use the HI-RES of the original photo I upload?

In the template I only see this one, with no hint to photo sizes:

{block:Text}
    <section class="content">
        {block:Title}
        <h1>{Title}</h1>
        {/block:Title}
        {Body}
    </section>
{/block:Text}

Also the official documentation doesn't help there: http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/custom_themes#text-posts

See here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/14710157/scale.jpg

Any ideas?

Thank you very much, rainer

Solution

  • So to answer that...

    Tumblr resizes images in text posts to max width of 500px. You can't change that.
