Read under my post (1949-1950 Frazer under Jeri Conklin) in the Frazer forum about half way down and they sent me really great instructions for posting pictures which I need to do. Look forward to seeing the pics.

You need to upload your photos to some sort of online hosting. Some use www.flickr.com, some use http://imageshack.us/.

Then you need to post it using vb code, which is just attaching [img ]http://to the front of the web address for you picture and [/img ] to the end (without the extra spaces, of course). Most image hosts will give you the correct form for posting your image on a forum already prepared with the image tags.

Example: [img ]www.mortalenema.com/images/LittleSpecialAvatar.jpg[/img]

I left a space in the first image tag so you can see the text.
Without the extra space you get:


This should get stickied for everyone.

I like those night shots. Chrome was meant to shine and gleem.

I used a digital point and shoot, mounted on a tripod with the 10 second delay timer to get a shake-free long exposure.
