I go to www.tinypic.com and upload them there, then paste the link given for message boards here.

I tried to copy in the image from the site but the photo was huge on the screen. What is the best way to reduce the size?

Try using imageshack.us. When you upload, there's an option for resizing below.

When you upload it, there'll be a thumbnail sized version of the picture and a pile of links underneath that. One will say "Forum Link". Just copy and paste the link given there into your post.

You could just upload it to boards.ie

It's a lot handier than using a separate site. Yuo could resize in windows too
