Hey guys, I have been on this forum for so long and don't have any picture of my ride. Today I was trying to upload some photo of my mods to show a Newb in another thread but the upload file attachment manager kept on uploading. Any suggestions and I also need to buy a camera since I'm gonna start taking pics to show off my oil burner. I am willing to spend $1-100 on any cheap camera. Phone camera sucks even in well lit surrounding.

The photo features on this forum are kind of archaic and only allow really low resolution pictures. Use a site like photobucket to host your pictures and then copy the IMG links here. When you submit the posts, the photos will automotically appear as long as you copy the

^ +1.

I'm not a Flickr user, but it seems like the uploaded images by Flickr is clearer / sharper than Photobucket's which I use. ← Every time I upload an image, the quality of an image becomes a bit more blurry than my original pics, and I end up sharpen up the image to correspond with the original quality of my pic.

(This is a little off topic, but I see the same thing when I upload my sig pic. I wonder if members w/ Flickr has the same issue or not. :thinking: )

^I've noticed both of those things too, been wondering what the deal is with that.

Photobucket's old site was so much better, now it's slower and has a few bugs.

^ Can't be complaining too much for a free membership but yeah, the site's endless upgrades, a few yrs ago, was kinda lame. I miss the old ver., too.

Upgrade to Flickr. It's great. It's free also. You get a terabyte of memory for your pictures. Site also goes through upgrades all the time.

It's also a Yahoo company/site, so if you have a Yahoo email, you have a Flickr.

^ 1T memory? That's pretty sweet. I'll probably create an account, once my photobucket gets maxed out.

Yahoo... Haven't heard that for a while 'till I saw a movie "Frequency". If you haven't seen this movie, I suggest you check it out. one of my faves, actually.

Sry, OP.. this is getting way off topic haha.
