The only pictures you can do are avatars and signatures. The avatars being the ones which show by your name as you post (and also show on your profile if viewed.) If you mean the avatar go to your profile (under the main forum banner) then hit modify profile. Use an image uploading site such as Imageshack.us and it will give you the URL to enter once you upload an image from your computer.
Hope this helps, if not just say the word and I'll hopefully explain it better next time. ;D

If you right click on the image and select "copy image url" that should be the one that works for you.

From what the profile page tells me yes the maximum size is 100 x 100 pixels for avatars.

And you manually set the width/height in the settings...I don't know if you already knew this or not, just felt it needed pointing out :-P

You used image shack I see copy the direct link option it gives you and put those in the img tags. Those images aren't resized though so they're going to be massive (when I looked on your topic in Pictures.) You can resize them with image shack before you upload there is an option for resizing - around 800 x 600 is a nice size or anything smaller. (the embed options do give you it ready in image tags I just prefer doing it myself for some reason - just what I am use to!) Edit: Here is one done for you as an example (resized.)
