You want to use a lipo with a "C" rating of 25 or higher.
I use www.photobucket.com to host my pictures so that I can then post them to the internet.

To upload pics, use the "Reply" icon next to the message you are replying to (instead of the "quick reply" box at the bottom when you are reading all the posts).
Then, in "Reply" mode, you'll see a "Click here to upload images and files" link under the text box. Use that.

I personally like to stick to 30c and higher since they only cost a few bucks more then 20c. but you'll want the highest c-rate you can afford.
