Sorry for the ignorant question but how do I post pics or submit them to be posted on the Fixed Gear Gallery? I cannot figure it out. I know I will feel like an idiot when I get the answer.

Send them an email with your pics.

EDIT: more specifically scroll down and look on the right for the huge link that says Submit pics here.
Easiest way to do it, Ctrl+F then search for submit.

I knew it was going to be something obvious like a big link I was missing.
Thanks

before/after for conversions is also necessary. Because we like to see how nice it looked before, and how crappy it looks now. (I ride a conversion, but it ALWAYS looked crappy)

Unfortunately I am a crossover from the Roadie forum so we only take pics in front of a white garage door. We have different bikes but the same garage door.

Make sure you raise your saddle and lower your bars a little for that aggressive look.

har...

fixed gear gallery has shown me that there are a lot of unskilled people with cameras in the world, myself included (http://fixedgeargallery.com/2006/apr/I.WaxChaotic.htm).

on the otherhand, some people have really, really great photos.

touche! ;)

I miss my dog... One week and I'll see him again.

Can I re-submit now that my bike looks like a P.O.S.?
