Use photobucket, easiest way and it automatically re-sizes the pic.

You will have to create an account but it will only take a minute, then whenever i put a pic up on here it goes on straight away with no messing about with sizes etc.

Just upload to photobucket, then copy and paste the IMG text in the box, and then paste it onto the box that you type in on this site, when you hit submit it should appear

as said use photobucket, once you have uploaded the images they will be shown as a small thumbnail image in your photobucket album.

Hover over the thumbnail and 4 links will appear below, click the bottom link, copy the whole link and paste it into her.

Hit submit and hey presto, piccy is there!!
