I changed the attachments from thumbnails to full size. It looks like your pictures are only tiny parts of the images you uploaded?

Thanks, I guess. Maybe I did not do enough magnification in using MS Paint? But those dimmed buttons while trying to put the image into the posts....
 
@symbolipoint I post images all the time with few issues. I have never had to magnify in MS Paint. I use the "Insert Image" button, and navigate to my saved image file. Once the image is in my draft post, I ignore the "thumbnail" buttons below the post.

The only thing I can think to do right now is, be sure to make a good original photograph, and then as appropriate, put into a PF post.

If the issue is enlarging images that you attach or paste into your posts, you can do that in the window when you are creating your post. I usually use Copy/Paste to insert images into my posts, and after you insert the image you can click on it to highlight it (and see the 4 corner squares that define the size), and grab the lower right corner square to drag it down and right to enlarge the image.

Note that the "BB Code" toggle icon [ ] needs to be set so that the other edit icons in the upper control bar are gray and not red. Like this:
