They work for me, but it's normally more fair on dial-up modem users if you post a thumbnail version of a photo with a link to the larger version.

OK. I'll ignore, but if I were to not ignore your post, I'd have to say that those are two really fine pics.

When posting a photo from somewhere else, you will have to create the thumbnail image yourself, when posting a DPC portfolio you can use the image ID and the DPC server will create the thumbnail from you.

Ok, there is a way to use the same thumbnails photobucket uses when showing your portfolio to you. The thumbnail has the same name as the photo you are wanting to show, but with a th_ prefix attached. For example, your stormybeach photo from above has the name stormybeach.jpg so its thumbnail on photobucket has the name th_stormybeach.jpg. The full URL is the same as the photo, so where you stormy beach photo is at
//img73.photobucket.com/albums/v223/MusicAngel405/Florida/stormybeach.jpg,
the thumbnail is at
//img73.photobucket.com/albums/v223/MusicAngel405/Florida/th_stormybeach.jpg
(notice the only thing that changed is the name of the file).
With this you can upload your photos to photobucket as you want them to be, and just use their automatically created thumbnails instead of creating your own. To learn how to post a clickable thumbnail in the forums, see this tutorial.
The end result is something like this:
and the other becomes:

No problem. We all started at the beginning at least once. :)
