Here's how you do it using Photobucket. (www.photobucket.com):

2. Click on the My Home link at the top of the screen
3. Select the album to where you want to upload the photo
4. Click the "more options" link
* Note: If the picture you are uploading is a very high resolution image, MEDIUM may still be too big. You may need to use either SMALL or TINY. (I had to use Tiny....) Come back to here if you get an error saying the file is too big at point no. 22.
6. Click Save
7. Click the green Upload Images and Videos button
8. Navigate to the directory that contains the photo you want to upload
9. Select the photo and press Open
10. When the photo has finished uploading press the blue Save button
