Welcome, Mark. I hope you enjoy it here.
I don't think I can be much help with your pictures. I think you may have to save them to your computer first and then download them to somewhere like Photobucket. Then copy the IMG link from there. That's what I do anyway.

I don't think that's how height/width attribute works with BBcode. Try what is used here for Image (resized): http://www.bbcode.org/reference.php
Hi Mark, welcome aboard. Not sure about the images, perhaps BB will chime in with an answer.

On the image tag issue - it appears that this forum simply doesn't support the height/width attribute at all. It seems the BBcode I linked to is the same way you were trying it (I thought there were more/different brackets but apparently not) but it simply doesn't appear to work on this forum (just tried it myself).
Here are the images from your sig, I merely remove the height attribute and then they display like this (I didn't copy and paste the urls though):
