I've only had the PS3 with GT5 for a week - still figuring it out. I'm seeing the INCREDIBLE screenshots on this site are all 1280x720, a common computer resolution. I'm hooked up via HDMI to a 1080i 26" TV and I don't think I'm getting the same resolution. Are the majority of people connected to an HDTV or a computer monitor?

Also, since they're called "screenshots" - how are they being generated - the "prt scrn" key on the computer keyboard or through photo mode? If you're using an HDTV, how do you get the photo off it?
 
To get a 16:9 photo, you need to hit Triangle button after you've take the photo, then choose 16:9.

To export those pictures taken, you need to import them to the XMB, then copy the picture(s) to a USB drive --> load to pc --- upload on the internet --> profit
 
To get those kind of photo you need to use the photomode which you can access either during the replay- press the pause button and you'll notice the photomode button at the bottom of the screen. Or in GT Life there's a special photomode section that gives you even more resolution (albeit with showroom shots as oppose to moving cars).

My advice is to use the in game menu to get all your answer as to how to export the photo from the game and onto your PC. Hint: it requires USB drive or similar USB devices.
