upload it to a server, such as imageshack.us. then it will give you the url of the image on the server.

put that between your [img] tags.

They don't offer remote hosting. You need to upload your pictures to a site such as www.photobucket.com

there we go....those are some pics in my backyard. the drop is about 8.5 feet. we are going to make the landing farther once we get used to it. I haven't hit it yet because my bike needs to be fixed. I'll post when I do hit it though.

You're the one who built that? I commented on it saying that you should make it a huge huck instead of a drop.

Did you gradually extend that as you got used to the height? Who rides that little one? Can we see a pic of you dropping off it.

Damn, I'd love to hit that, maybe you should make it a flat to flat drop once you get more used to it.

Well, I'm building a track (with jumps and drops) on my cousin's house with my other cousin, my 2 cousins will be working on it this weekend and I'll go check on it and work on it too next weekend so I'll take some pics if possible.

That thing's like a sidewalk. There's room for two teeters and a kicker at the end.

I think not!

I'll be sure to tell my eight year old son that some dweeb who is trapped in Illinois thinks that he shouldn't be wearing his BMX helmet...

Is a Boxxer really neccessary for the horrible "mountain" biking around Chicago?
I think not!
