To post the pics, try this:
If the pic is larger than 640 wide, use Photobucket's "Resize" function and set the width to 640. It should adjust the height for you to keep the aspect ratio the same.
When you go back to your album page, mouse-over the pic and click on the "Direct Link" option. It should flash "Copied" in that field.
Go to your new post and click the "Image" button below where you type. It should pop up a window where you can "Paste" what you copied from Photobucket. It automatically puts in the code to show the pic in the main message for you.
The result should look something like this [ IMG ]http://address.com/image.pic[ /IMG ] (I added spaces so it wouldn't try to actually put a pic in there)
BTW, that's one cool knife.
