    Posting pictures in messages

    I have a stupid question. I thought I was somewhat computer knowledgeable, but I still haven't figured out how to post pictures in messages. I have some good pictures of my bike and would love to show everyone, but I have no idea how to take the pictures that are on my hard-drive and show them in the message screen like eveyone else does.....

    first you need to get the pictures stored on the internet
    usually on your providers server or a place like photodump
    then you put a link in your message pointing to the pictures

    you can't keep them on your computer and link from there

          I use photobucket.com. It's free and will automaticly resize your pics. Just have to copy. then paste, then eliminate the [img] from both ends of the addy. Click go and she's a done deal. If I can figure it out, just about anyone can. It's pretty user friendly.
          If you had resized your pic then we wouldn't have to scroll back and forth. Nice bike. Everything resized while writeing this. Yee.. Haa. what a ride.

                Hey Rob,

                How about that wheel? Seller said it would fit an '80, but the '80 came with tubeless rims. Close enough to mis-representation to warrant cancelling the sale? I think so. Good luck.

                    I ride my bike to work everyday, I checked my rim and it has the same indents on it as in the picture......Mines tubeless, so I believe that the rim I won is also...

                        No, Randy I am glad you brought it up, that would have been a bad thing if it werent tubeless. I went right outside this morning and checked my bike just to be sure the rim has the same indents......Thanks Man....

                              These were some pics I took friday. I like the silver color (tank stays cooler in the hot summers out here), and it matches my helmet too.......
