One "Trick" I use sometimes is to use facebook.

Create an album in your FaceBook profile. Upload images as normal. Then right-click on the image to see its long code.

Which will look something like that above.

Just Copy the code (right click on the mouse) and then Paste the code here

The image will be further shrunk to fit the forum but you get the jist..

Also for this forum any photos I DONT want to have cropped to size I just load up to Facebook at 390 pixels wide and that seems to do the trick !

This photo (hosted on FACEBOOK) has been pre-shrunk
to a width of 390 pixels - Useful for this website !

Re-sizing your pics to 2400x1200 or less will work.

I do it that way too Richard, if I'm just sticking one photo in a post for instance.
