Welcome to the insanity! :yesnod:

You have to upload your pic(s) to a location on the internet and then in
your post, click on the image tag button and place the whole address to the
pics between the image tags. It should look something like this.

(note the image tags are misspelled so they will show up here and not
actually try and display a picture)

Hope this helps. Good Luck!

about two months, if any of you are from colorado you might have heard of Ram Tractor, my brother and i own the biz and we do pretty good, im hoping to have another vette buy the end of this summer, either that or an old porsche, but im hooked on the vettes so ill probably get a BB 454 and make it a 1/4 mile wonder or get into rallys
