I did the same thing as you before I learned what works. Crop or resize your image so it is 800 pixels wide at the maximum. Fits perfectly and displays perfectly.

Here are some shots from last summer on a small lake near Traverse
City, Michigan. All were taken with a EOS 30D, with an EF 100-400
f/4.5-5.6 L IS lens (rented from Lens Rentals -- who have given me
great service by the way -- can't recommend them high enough).
Enjoy

Loons adult and immatures -- 400mm, f/7.1, 1/400 sec This image has been photoshopped a bit to tone down the green reflection from the woods along the lake shore.

Immature Bald Eagle 275 mm, f/8, 1/500 sec
Let me know what you think. I've been a serious amateur for a while -- and having a blast.
For Dave Metcalf:
I can't give a technical critique. I just wish that I had taken them!
Looks like you may have used the 100-400mm zoom.
