I use tinypic.com for my pictures on forums.

You upload the picture from your desktop(or where ever) and it'll give the option as to what size you want it e.g. for 15" screen or 17" screen etc

You then copy the image number(it'll say for forums and message boards) and insert it the usual way.

Some forums have auto image resizing, which is why you haven't had trouble else where. We don't, so you'll have to resize the image in Dropbox, before copying the link into the IMG tags. It's easy to do with most image hosting providers.

Great!....

(I always size mine for 17" screens and it usually looks OK)

It's the right answer!

Or... you can use www.photobucket.com that does it all for you. (compressing to the correct size, that is)

Were you by chance trying to paste more than one direct link in the insert image box?

You must post each image link separately, so each gets its own IMG tags. When using the insert image button, just paste one direct link in and click OK. To add another image, hit the insert image button again and repeat the process for each photo.
