Re:How do I attach a photo to a thread?

You have to put the url address of the photo between the {img] and the [/img] code



You can also resize your pictures like this
[img width=590 height=456]https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/yabbse/gallery/albums/userpics/normal_truck_front.jpg[/img]
[img width=290 height=228]https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/yabbse/gallery/albums/userpics/normal_truck_front.jpg[/img]

Click on the quote button for this post and see how I did it. Just keep the picture sizes down under 640x480 pxl so our dial up users don't have to wait for ages for the page to load.

The blue one is mine and the one with training wheels belongs to the "BOSS". Thanks for the compliment. ;D

If you want to show a picture that is on the web. Right click on the picture and select properties from the pop-up menu, then you can copy and paste the url address. If you have a picture on your computer that you want to add to a post, you can also upload it as an attachment by clicking the browse button on the Post Reply page.
See the attached photo by clicking on the word STAKE,,,,,,,,,,,,, I think that truck looks familiar! :

Actually, the smaller pic of Jack's dually is about the best for posting in the forums. If you want to be creative, you can always use a thumbnail pic as a clickable link to a larger pic.

<----- Click on the pic ;D

That's gotta be a 1500, you can't get that kind of flex with a Cummins.

(no exhaust pipe visible, and a dinky rear axle)

Gotta find a beater car to try that on. ;D
