how come when I upload my before/after pictures to my profile they are fine but when I upload them to this message board they are SO BIG that you can only see one of them??? How do I get them small enough to fit on the actual message board? I've already resized it and it's fine on my profile??

    You said you've already resized it? To get them to fit from edge to edge in the forums, 600-650pixels (width) is the best.

    So if you have photo editing software, make the images 650px (width).

    If you don't have any software. You can upload them to www.imgur.com, after the upload is completed you should see a blue link called "edit image" on the top-ish right, on the next page you should see two boxes with numbers in it (height and width), the first number is width -- change it to 650 (make sure locked proportions box is checked), click apply on the left side, then SAVE in the top middle. It should take you back to the page you were at immediately after you uploaded, on the right look for "Direct Link", copy the link below that and it should be resized for you. Hopefully. :D
