You can create your own gallery on here, then just link to photos from there.

Just look for the "Gallery" tab between "UserCP" and "Blogs"

There shouldn't be any problem with the size of your pictures from Photobucket
What size are they when you upload them to photobucket ?

Is there an option to link to the thumbnail and not the full size image on photobucket?

It looks like you are saving your images quite small.
I posted some flies recently and they display at the largest size that the forum software allows being 758 pixels.

As I said previously, however they can be larger but the software wil scale them to size.

For images from external links I always resize to 800x600. There is no limit to what size you post if it is from an external link
