well if you computer isn't crap just take a screenshot with the print screen button then upload it using Imageshack. It should be okay after that.

It's a .gif, that's not such a great file type I feel. Go with a .png (it's bigger, but generally nicer) instead. Also, it looks like your resizing is a bit off, how are you doing it? Any decent software can resize an image with utterly destroying the quality (kind of like what's happened to you).

Is the picture you uploaded the same size as the one on the forums? To me it just looks like it's small. I don't know if tynipic resizes them to 640 width...

you might want to try stitching them less wide, maybe 2 columns and not 3, or making 3 different pictures where you only stitch 3-4 together. I think by stitching so many together, you lose quality.

If you manage to fix your picture, make sure you just edit your post and change the link to the picture, and not start a new one.

Good Luck!
