Here's a reply I did earlier:
I am not an expert on changing the size as I use Photoshop and it is easy in that, you want 640 x whatever to make them easy to view.
To add one to a post just go down to Filename
click Browse and find the file on your PC
click Open
click Add the file
click Place inline (opposite Attachments)

You can then use Preview to check you have got what you want before you Submit.

Felix posted some notes on resizing:
There are some excellent freebie utilities for resizing images without having to fork out for, and get to grips with, Photoshop. For PCs there's PIXresizer, or there's a brilliant Dashboard widget, Image Shackle for OS X.

I upload my photos to flickr.com

Then once uploaded, view the picture, click 'all sizes' link above the photo and choose medium. There will be two sets of code underneath the photo. The second shorter code can be copied and pasted into the post using the [img] button.

hope that helps.
