Default cant post pictures

I"m trying to post a picture to my sig and can't. My pictures are too big so I put some on photo bucket and adjusted the size but can't get them on here. Help would be appreciated. Warning, I'm pretty dumb on computers.

Try opening the photo in 'Paint'. And then, looking at the top toolbars, click on 'Image', then 'Stretch/Skew'. In stretch, change horizontal to 50% and vertical to 50%. Click on top toolbar 'File' and 'Save as...', rename image and try posting again.

There should be 4 different links under each picture on your Photobucket album.

Copy and paste the bottom one of the 4 links and you should be able to easily post a full-size picture.

Run your cursor (arrow) along the link to highlight it while holding down the left button on your mouse.

Then right click on it and you'll see 'copy', then left click onto 'copy'.

Next right click again when you find where you want to post it.

Then left click on 'paste' to paste the link.

Thanks for the help. Even after I copied and pasted it said invalid code, my wife helped me and got it to work, but we are not exactly sure how.LOL
