I get asked this at least 3 times a day... so here it is.

We do not allow posting of pictures directly into our forum. The images need to be hosted remotely somewhere & then you post into the board a link to those pictures.

For example:

1. Register youself on www.photobucket.com (http://www.photobucket.com/)
2. Upload your pictures to photobucket.
3. In your Photbucket album, you should now see the pictures you've uploaded. Under each picture is a tickbox.
4. Click each tickbox of the images that you want to share on a forum
5. At the bottom of the screen, click the button called Generate HTML & IMG code
6. Scroll down to the section marked "IMG clickable thumbnails for message boards - recommended"
7. Highlight ALL of the text in the box (by putting your cursor at the beginning or end of the text, clicking & holding down your left mouse button & dragging the cursor until it highlights all of the text).
8. Let go of the mouse button & the text should now be highlighted.
9. Press the CTRL key down & then the C key at the same time. Let go both keys.
10. Got to your forum, create a new message and paste the text into the message by Pressing and holding the CTRL key down and then press V at the same time. let go & the text will appear.

Sounds complex, but it's real easy.

We do have a photo gallery (http://forum.svrider.com/photoalbum/) that paid members can take advantage of and post photos there. This is not intended for items for sale.
