Can someone tell me how to post pics of my bike? I am a bit tech challenged- for now and don't know how to figure it out here. Thangs

The best way is to host them off-site on a site like Flick'r and then embed the url's with the [IMG] tags.

You can also click "manage attachments" when making a post and upload directly but your image size will be severely limited.

The photo has to be hosted somewhere (an image server) which is always connected to the net - Flickr, Photobucket, or another image host. These are usually free. Go and sign up to one, and full instruction on how to upload your photos to them will be there.

Once you've uploaded your photos, you'll see an album with the photos and different ways of linking to each one. I haven't used Flickr, but with Photobucket there are four different links - the easiest one to use is 'direct link'

When you click 'reply' here, you'll see a couple of rows of control buttons on top of the edit box. Click on the one that looks like mountains with a sun in a yellow sky, and you'll get a little box up that you can paste your direct link into. Do that and click OK, and that's your photo posted.

It sounds a faff written out here, but it's easy in practice - the most hassly bit is setting up the image host account, and you only have to do that once.

Yeah, what HF said.

This thread has lots of info that is helpful.

Thanks guys! I'll try that
