Maybe it's because your shots are too big?

Don't host them on image shack. If you want them to appear inline make sure they are smaller than 800x600px, anything larger means they won't be opened in the topic.

Just attach your pictures. The download box will appear if the pictures are too wide, but it doesn't matter that much. People will still get a chance to see your pictures.
Otherwise you can use Irfanview, GIMP or Photoshop (among others) to crop your pictures to the right size (800 pixels wide)

I usually skip screenshots which aren't being displayed inline.

You've been told a good few times already, if you can't work it out then well, we can't help you anymore can we?

Well, that's your loss, isn't it?

And hectobar, it really isn't all the difficult to crop the pictures. Paint has a pixel counter as well, so it wouldn't be too hard to crop your pictures to the desired size.
