Did you upload a high quality version from your PC? Link to the picture with the actual problem

What size/compression did you upload at? I send my photos to FaceBook at 1024px on the long edge and they are degraded a bit, but not too badly.

Hi Josh, you're looking at jpeg compression - free sites cut the image quality down massively over the copy on your PC, as they're paying for the hard drive storage online! Smooth colour gradients get turned into that blocky mess at low jpeg quality, but the files are much smaller.
As mentioned, you can try "high" quality upload on FB - it's one of the uploader options...other than that you could try cloud storage like dropbox/skydrive/google and let people download them. Just remember you're limited in how much space you can use then.
