Posting Images

I haven't updated my webpages since Covid.  Now I have to edit my pages on the Homestead website and not from my computer.  I'm trying to post images and I do not want to post the thumbnails on my page.  I want to post the picture itself and avoid the clicking on the thumbnail to get the full picture.  When I post the thumbnail it is only the square thumbnail and it just shows the square thumbnail itself.  On the old Homestead on my computer, I could post the picture the size I wanted on the page and now I cannot.  I tried to download the new Homestead Sitebuilder on my computer but I get the 404 message that the page isn't available.  Can someone help me figure out how to do what I want to do.  It was soooo easy when I could work on the pages on my computer and then upload them.  HELP!

To upload pictures to your Homestead Sitebuilder Plus website, go to "Websites Manager," click "Edit Site," then "Insert" in the top toolbar. From the drop-down menu, select "Image" and choose "Upload from my computer" to select a file from your computer. After the image is uploaded and placed on your page, you can drag it to your desired spot and click "Save" and "Publish" to make the changes live. 
Step-by-step instructions
  1. Go to the website editor: From your account dashboard, click "Websites Manager" in the left navigation menu, then click "Edit Site".
  2. Insert an image: In the top toolbar, click "Insert" and select "Image" from the drop-down menu.
  3. Upload a new image: Choose "Upload from my computer" to find and select an image from your computer.
  4. Place the image: Drag the newly uploaded image to the desired location on your page.
  5. Adjust image settings (optional): On the right side, use the "Image Settings" to crop, resize, or link the image if needed.
  6. Save and publish: Click "Save" and then "Publish" to make the image visible on your live website.

Whenever I try to download a picture from my computer to Homestead, it gives me the thumbnail size and I cannot change the size at all, it stays a thumbnail.  Is there any way to NOT have a thumbnail that the viewer has to click to see the whole picture.  Under the system where I used the Homestead program on my computer to work on my site and then I would publish to Homestead.  I need to know how I change the thumbnail to a regular size picture.

Here is an article to assist with uploading images to Sitebuilder. https://community.homestead.com/homestead/topics/sitebuilder-plus-add-an-image
Select insert > image. If you add a photo gallery, it will auto thumbnail the image(s)
You can hold down the shift key and click on multiple images to upload more that one image at a time.
