I want to help out with avatars,banners,sigs e.t.c but when I go to upload the work it looses so much quality & even when applied on the site it looks blurry & pixelated.

Can someone help on how to keep the quality? Do I double the preferred size, & then compress it down below 100kb?

How are you uploading it? Some image hosts compress images to reduce file size and if you are already compressing them it will make the quality worse.

In that case it's most likely how you are exporting since I don't think catbox adds compression. I would also suggest exporting high detail images as jpeg and low detail images such as logos etc as png since one can be better than the other in certain situations.
