I don't think this forum allows photos in postings. I seem to recall it was something about requiring too much server space?

Ah, LC, I think they just told you that because they didn't want you posting pictures of your "friends" all over the place. [;)]

...It does seem some folks would like to share photos on here at times but the process is involving to the point many of us just give up and forget about trying...Too bad it's not as easy as sending one through an e-mail.

Click on "show forum code" in the Quick Reply box for the syntax. The image has to be on a website somewhere, and you put the URL between the tags.
I'm using the wrong brackets so it won't really try to show an image:
{img}http://www.yourwebsite.com/yourimage.jpg{/img}

Keep the images small. If you want to have folks look at a larger image, you can put in the URL for the website where the images reside.

What about "Thumbnail" type of photos. I thought I've seen a few in the past. Photos have been successfully posted over on the Model Railroader Forum, though I think the photos were part of the authors' signatures.
