can someone tell me why when I use photobucket my pictures post so tiny?

I am not tech savvy, so all I do is click on the img code - copy then add it to the post! Now dont get me wrong 90% of the time the tiny pic is great - but when I want someone to see details, I'd like it bigger - I even went in photobucket and edited to 200% no change!

example:

the first one is 0695-1 because I edited to 200%

I even note all those that posted to this thread have huge pictures! why am I "special"?

Apparently you must have 10 posts to post pictures?

Well I can get a link up but not the pic itself. I am wondering if this does not work with a .mac account. Or if this is just the standard quirk of working in a mac world.

Help anyone??

Is there an option on Photobucket to make it larger? If so, are you saving it.

Looks like you are linking to the page, not a photo. Also, that site might not allow direct linking. Maybe give www.photobucket.com a try.

Do you have a link to the file url address you are trying to use?

Just an update: I DID finally get it to work by opening a Photobucket account. I tried to use my flikr account but couldn't get it to work. I guess photobucket is the only way?
