Ok, thanks. I resized the photos but it still doesn't look right to me. Is it because I'm playing the game at a higher resolution?

Resizing never looks good. The reason to use 800*600 is that your screenshot will be displayed inline rather than that users have to click on a link to view them. This is more convenient and makes it a better screenshot topic. What you can do to get 800*600 is either crop your pictures in a graphics editor, or set OpenTTD to 800*600 windowed mode (perhaps only when making screenshots).

Also try to close windows that add nothing to the story you're telling or the scene that you want to show. If you compare your first and last image, the first one is very messy with all those windows. The last one is far more pleasant to look at.

If you play at 800x600 and aren't zoomed out, you can just use ctrl+D for screenshots without any HUD instead of making a ctrl+S screenshots.

Well, plenty of ways of doing things. You just need to work out what you like best ;)
