Seems to be an issue for comments too: http://lesswrong.com/lw/fp5/2012_survey_results/7xhs (I manually shrank the images before uploading, but they're still not rendering cleanly.)

When adding an image link, the default is to transclude it at whatever raw size the image is. On posts, this can lead to an ugly underlap effect where a huge image scrolls off the screen and under the sidebars until the image is manually resized and uploaded. This apparently can be fixed by a standard CSS option to shrink images to fit the body of a post's width: 'fluid images'; see http://unstoppablerobotninja.com/entry/fluid-images/ http://blog.kurtschindler.net/post/flexible-dynamically-resizing-images-with-css http://stackoverflow.com/questions/787839/resize-image-proportionally-with-css For example, on gwern.net I had the same problem and fixed it with:
img { max-width: 100%; height: auto; width: auto\9; /* ie8 */ }
Something like that might work for posts.
