OT - Help posting pics or using Photobucket

Hello everyone.  Already searched for an answer and can't find any help.  

Having trouble uploading pics.  Getting the "An error occured: Error: Storage limit exceeded" message (occurred seems to be misspelled).  Did some searching and seems that Photobucket is the way to go.  Opened an account and now want to link thumbnail photos to a post and can't figure it out.  Don't want to post a ton of full-sized pics to avoid the scrolling.  Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

Was looking for something like that but can't find.  Options are:

Email & IM
Direct
HTML
IMG

Went through the address of each and can't find anything that says 'thumb'

Keith and Dave, thanks for helping.  Signed up for Photobucket and it's painfully slow.  Found the way to discover the thumbnail link but it takes too long to use the site.  Signed up for Flickr and can't post anything on F4F except a link to the picture.  Very difficult for the reader.  I guess the days of posting pics direct to F4F are over?   :(

Photobucket has been having problems the last week or so. Last week I was getting a "We're under Maintenance, come back later" message. Yesterday I couldn't even get that far. I think it's the ads that slow it down but usually workable. Since I use it a lot, I signed up for $1 a month ad free.

Was hoping Photobucket would have been workable.  I would pay to get rid of the ads.  Guess I'll wait another week or so to see if it straightens out.

Thanks again for the help guys.  Just wanted to update this thread in case anyone else was searching.  

I figured out how to post pics with the help of petechanr and this thread.  You definitely have to jump through a hoop or two to get it right but makes it easier for the reader.

Hope this helps others and we can start to see some beautiful pictures of figs again.  :)

Unless this forum software is updated, I'm finding using Photobucket tedious and their service unreliable. In addition posted pictures here will not be available, especially if the album is updated.

This is true Sas.  But what's the alternative?
