the options are many: you can resize your images so they don't spread the page view.

-clickable thumnail view option
-direct link to the image (no adverts)
-"hotlink for forums" to make the image self-open on the page

For any to whom that isn't clear enough, here's the step-by-step for posting pics on any forum:

1. Get an account at a free image hoster like www.imageshack.com.
2. Upload your picture. Make sure before you start this that it is not too big--unless you are doing some fancy-pants art or something, not more that 700 pixels wide, really. Also, it should be a standard format, but that shouldn't be a problem cuz I doubt you have non-standard equipment (you don't use an Amiga, right?)
3. Copy the code snippet labeled "for forums" from the little box that pops up when you push the button next to your uploaded picture.
4. Paste into your message.

You could also upload directly to the forum, but don't. It looks ugly, and could lead to Reid being charged fees.
