    This is the easiest way, however you are limited to uploading 5 pics.
    After it uploads you can double click on it and pick Large pic.

    I have a photosite that can give me a url ref to images I have there. Then I just paste it between img tags. Old school vBulletin lol

    I do it the way Jim showed. Photos will stay forever.. well at least while this place keeps going. All my old threads still have their pics. Photo hosting sites can bite you in the @$$ later on and remove access or delete them.

    Agree that photo sites can bite you in the ass later, especially the free ones. I constantly lament the DIYs illustrated with photobucket stuff that's now gone.... I pay for my photo storage and have used Fotki for the last 20 years... Still, if anything ever happens to them all my stuff goes poof...

    Back in the Roadfly days Comcast let us host hundreds of pics for free. Then one day they notified everyone that we could no longer use their free site however the images that were already there would remain. Big lie, they dumped all of them.

    Hi,

    I'm a Photobucket user - never had an issue and I think as I was and still am a paying subscriber, when they got rid of hosting for free accounts, I was unaffected. Many people were and got miffed, never to come back, but no issues for me

    JimLev - The RoadFly days were fantastic! I think I've mentioned to you previously, MLounge was where the fun was! I've still got the T shirt that Chad I think it was made for all us 'regulars' in that section!

    Cheers, Dennis!

    Haha, yes the MLounge was the place to see whatever you wanted.
    The sales guy at the BMW dealership where I bought my 540 is the one that told me about Roadfly.

    I upload the pics to the forum. No risk of pics disappearing when the image hosting place shuts down business.
