Try right clicking the image in the following article; left click copy or copy image; right click and paste to your message page.

You don't have to dick with it.

If you see it blows out the page, you can quickly edit the post, find the image link, highlight the full link, then press the button all the way on the right (second row of editing icons on top)

It's called the RESIZE button and it will wrap the link in tags that will automatically reduce the image to fit the page.

I know it's not ideal and I know it should do this automatically...but that's how you do it without having to edit the actual image itself.

That's called "dicking with it"

and if you also surround the link with the [RESIZE] tags (second row of buttons - the one all the way to the right) it will look like the above (I edited your post)
