Why do some posted Pics show up full size and yet when I upload mine they are small? Uploading 600X600 normally and they enlarge if you click on them ??

...down the rabbit hole just ahead of Alice.
it has to do with where you have them (which photo hosting website) also on whether or not you're linking the small pick to the bigger or using the big picture. btw, I think photobucket only allows you to link to the bigger with the smaller

it's better to have them smaller and clickable that way the people using dial up don't suffer as bad or at least it's at there own risk to click

It depends on the code you are using, NOT the hosting site.

You are pasting the thumbnail code from imageshack, not the image code.

If you want a full size pic, go to your members page at imageshack and paste the code that has the

tag.

Also, resize your pics to 600 x 450 before uploading to imageshack. IMHO that is the ideal size to use on a forum. The pic is just the right size and you do not have to scroll the pic... and it is dial-up friendly.

The code you want to use is highlited in the example below...
