Ya I feel like an idiot, I am a graphic designer so I should know this (still learning though, never finished school) but I am confused with something...

I am using Photoshop and I know the sizes need to be 150 pixels tall and 72 dpi and I know how to do this no problem. But when I do, it obviously gets really really tiny. So when I host it on photobucket and link it to my thread, it is so small where you can hardly see it. How do I fix this?

If you still have the tiny one in photobucket and it's the same file name as the resized one it won't let you upload it.
You'll either have to delete the tiny one or rename the new one.

Hope that helps.

The uploader may also resize pictures, I posted here about why either of them would do it and how to fix it (photobucket recently put the file size on some accounts down really low and you need to adjust it manually)
