How about adding a feature to the forum that will add scrollbars left to right on post that are wider than the forum is. This forum here has it. http://www.simplemachines.org/index.php any ideas on it?

If I understood the question this is not a forum feature but the scrollbar is added by the browser if your screen reso is lower than page width.

You will see the scrollbars on the bottom of the post.

The pic itself is probably displayed within a div with autoscroll set on the div. The div then resides in a fixed width table cell so only the pic div scrolls, not the table csll. The format of the scroll bars is done with css,

Incase anyone else wants to use this, here is the code and thanks to Drew for doing this for me. 

<div style=""overflow: auto; overflow-y:hidden; width: 525px"">" & strMessage & "</div>
