Hey what's up everyone. Just wanted to say hi, joined today.

One question, how do I post a pic of my car? Everytime I got to do it, there is a "upload failed" response.

Thanks.

Welcome aboard!!!!!! Another 1 from toronto SEWEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!! This might help you out!!EASY PIC POSTING INFO:
A very simple method is to use a hosting site such as www.tinypic.com for single pics, or www.photobucket.com for multiple pics.
Both are free, but PhotoBucket does require registration.

How-To:
1) know in advance where the photo files that you wish to post are located. (to make it easier, you may wish to copy the files to your desktop)
2) Go to one of the above hosting websites and use the 'browse' button to locate and select the files on your computer
2-A) For multiple pics,use Photobucket - click the 'Submit Multiple Pictures' dropdown menu and click the # of pics you need to upload before using the 'browse' feature to select the pics
3) Click the 'host it' or 'submit' button to upload the pic(s)
4) These websites generate 4 different file types - Be sure to choose the .IMG file and copy/paste that entire IMG link into your post.
5) After pasting the IMG file, you will NOT see the actual pic UNTIL you click "Preview Post".
6) After you preview and verify your pics are inserted successfully, click "submit" and your post is complete!

**Note:
After you have done this the first time, it is really very simple!
This method has been confirmed to work well for both PC's and Mac's

Alternative:
You can also post pics using the site feature for uploading and attaching files, which is found just below the reply window:
Click reply - scroll down to "Additional Options" - In the "Attach Files" field, click "Manage Attachments" - a pop-up window for uploading will appear.
You can only upload 1 pic at a time and the size limit is 195.3 KB per photo, which may require you to re-size your pics before upload... info for re-sizing can be found below.

Welcome Metal. The post DUBSTER made (shamelessly stolen from HEMEEE...haha) is the way to go. Use the Photobucket method cuz it'll automatically resize your images. You need to have 4 posts to be able to post pics though. That may have been your problem. Get to work and make 2 more posts.

Welcome to the forums metal. I know there are many of us that are waiting anxiously for pictures of your car.

BTW…when I saw Dubster’s post my jaw fell to the ground. That was the absolute longest post I’ve seen him make……even if it was a copy and paste! Great directions.
