RE: Using Photobucket
There's an option in Photobucket where you can just post thumbnails of your pics, instead of posting them full-size:
So, after uploading pics to Photobucket:
1. Mark the pic (with a check in the checkbox) that you want to post
2. Scroll down, and click on "Generate HTML and IMG code"
3. A page will appear with several HTML and IMG codes. Copy the code from the box with "clickable thumbnails for message boards"
4. Paste the codes on your message
