I have been taking my pictures at the highest resolution but it seems when I resize them to post on here they come out small and very grainy because of the size. Should I use maximum compression when I resize and should I cut back on resolution if I am just going to post them on here? Any suggestions? Please make the suggestions so an idiot can understand them because all I know is to point and click. Thanks.

I use max resolution then crop the part I want to show. That way you keep most of the resolution you shot it at. Irfanview works great (read real easy and free) to crop and resize with.

I have programs that came with my camera and I do it the same way you do but the pictures look horrible unless you can view them large and then you can zoom in real clear.
