Thanks mate , how do i keep the pictures small ???

I use a photobucket account..as will most people im sure.

You can upload your pics onto photobucket when you've got an account and then from there you can insert the direct link into your reply or thread and your pictures are sized up from there! and show up in your post.

Hope this helps, apologies if you knew that lol
