I’d like to post some photos, but have four questions.
#1 Are both TIFF and JPEG formats acceptable?
#2 If not, which should be used?
#3 Does the site automatically resize photos to a convenient viewing size?
#4 If not, what size (pixel dimensions) should I use?
I looked on General Pipe Discussion, and on the top of the Cigar Bum site, but didn’t see any guidelines.

I don't know if TIFF are acceptable, but most people use JPEG.
I don't think this website automatically resizes photos.
I use 640 X 480 for my pictures, but 800 X 600 probably wouldn't be too big either.

Haven't tried any others, which may be good or better, but I just post them through Tapatalk and everything works out fine.

I use ImageShack.com. It costs a little money, but it’s been very reliable for me.
