blogger layout sos

hello bloggers, HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009 *again*!!! so... i wanted to change my blog layout a little bit to start this year; i want to display bigger images in my blog posts, except that i have absolutely no idea how to do it! spent hours going through the HTML codes (well, i am obviously not an HTML or CSS coder!) but couldn't find where i can change that setting and i've given up! image width 400 pixels is just as far as i can go when i uploaded images and set it the size to large (instead of small and medium). and if i enlarge the image by dragging the corner of the image displayed, it will just make the image pixelated / blurry :( anyone can help? sorry for a not very exciting topic to post on the first day of the year! thanks in advance!

happy new years! big photos= :) -its been some time since i redid my blogdesign and changed to bigger photoes, but here is the general idea: I go into "edit html" and change the post-width to the wanted size -then i do not use the picture-uploader when posting, but instead insert photos via an image code in the post html -maybe i can send you an email with more details? I do not know if there is some other more clever way of doing, since im self-taught in html :)

I load my images to my server and use the following code to insert the image into the text of my post.

remove all of the spaces- I needed to do that so it would post.
< p >< img src=" htt p://www.yourwebsite.com/yourfolder/yourfilename.jpg" / >< /p >

It appears that your images aren't currently using your maximum area for posts. According to your html looks to be 600px so size your images to 600 pixels wide or less. Then put them in a folder on your server and then link back to them.

My blog is all blogger, I've adjusted the html to fit my larger images. Hope this helps.
