Default New guy question about HD pictures

As I'm scrolling through the forums I notice that the majority of people have big high quality pictures in their posts. When I post a picture it get compressed and than displays very small. What do I need to do to upload high quality pictures ?

Roger, thanks for the advice guys. Last question how do I prevent the images from disappearing I hate going through a thread and than right when they solve the problem and the world is saved you go to look at the picture and it's gone "the user has moved or deleted this photo"

Is that something I can prevent by just leaving everything alone or do they expire at a certain point ?

If you move a photo from one file to another in photobucket, the original link will break. That's why you see that notification instead of a photo. (Could also be a deleted account I suppose).

Photobucket will allow you to copy your pics into other/new albums, so the original stays put. But it's easier & cleaner to organize your photos before you start posting links.

Hope that helps!
