Can't change screen resolution in VirtualBox

Hi
I'me veeeery new to BSD (and *nix )
I've installed PCBSD 7.1 successfully on VirtualBox 2.2, now screen size is small
(it's surrounded with black margins)
In [System Settings -> Display] there are only 2 options for size:
800 x 600 and 640 x 480
Is there a way I could add higher resolutions to this list ?
Or maybe I'm better using VMWare (Does anybody know if VMWare has support for BSD ? VirtualBox does not include Guest Additions for BSDs)

Thanks
