If they are just thumbnails, when they are clicked on, vbulletin puts them up in a shadowbox either at full size (if it fits), or scaled to fit the full picture on the page.
The resize tag that I added is a quick and dirty html tag on the client side that forces a picture to be 1000 pixels wide. This is quite helpful if the image is already on another site, and 1000 pixels seemed to be a good compromise for typical monitors (and now even phone screens). But the built-in vbulletin resizing may be more effective than the "resize" tag for vertical orientation pictures, as 1000 pixels wide can make the picture quite tall, and not fit all on the page anyway.

Ah... good to know. Thanks!
I usually don't upload pics here because I use them on other sites as well. So would rather upload just one copy once. I usually upload to Google Photos for friends and family to see albums. Then embed individual photos on sites.
