It's always happy reading, but you tend to stretch your images: I can't really see what's going on in the picture. I see a Norwegian and is that goalkeeper Colombian?
This forum uses a width of 700 px, so what I do is using that width. Most people have at least a 1920 x 1080 screen nowadays, meaning that if you disregard your browser (tabs and bar) 900 px length will fill the screen nicely. For my important games or posts, I use a 700 wide x 900 long template (or 1400 x 1800 at 50%).
If you take a screenshot, it's probably 16:9. Down to size, that would become 700 x 135. Even with a 700x700 template, it would leave you with over 600 px to fill with text (without stretching the picture). Try it, hope it helps.

Thanks for the input. Though I'm sorry to admit that I didn't understand a word of it. I try to find some horizontal images or situations that can be put in to add some colour in my posts. There are rarely important details in them, so I don't pay too much mind to whether they are stretched or not.
Yes, there is a Norwegian in the academy and a South American goalie. Colombia or Venezuela, I don't recall. And it's not something I've found to be interesting or important anyway. My new narrator needed an introduction, and I decided - in my next post - to name two more from the academy. But most of my current academy players will not be promoted or play a part in this story, and then I won't put too much effort into introducing them.
