Same story, no pics. But noticed the back of my right pant leg was covered in mud after a ride the other day. There is a very open area on the S10 on the right side above the rear wheel. Suprised no manufacturer has made a Mudsling for that area yet. So made 3 individual mud flaps out of real car Mud Flaps. One covers that open area on top just below the seat. Mounted from the inside held on with 2 black zip ties. Another flap on the inside of the rear fender extending down and up and covering the Rear Brake reservoir. Bolted that one on with 2 bolts, holding it at the top under the passenger seat. Then made a small 3rd flap that mounts down low just below the ABS housing box. None of them are very noticible but work like a damb. I'll get around to taking pics but still have to get someone else on here to post for me in case anybodys interested.

Thank you Rod.

Since I could not find directions I had to get information from Venture (thank you).

We can store our photos our photos in the Albums. If I read this correctly using the Album Photos will correct the photo size during the attachment. Is this correct?

Is there a place in this forum where users can get information about photos and attachments without going through admin? If not is there going to be?

Easiest thing to do - sign up for a photobucket account:

http://photobucket.com/

It's free - upload your photos there - then use the little picture of Mona Lisa on the thread reply page to directly link your photos here. No resizing needed - it just works. PM me if you need help - if you can sign up for , and post on a forum - you can do it...

If you go to Media from the main menu, you can 'add album' give it a name then upload to that. Once uploaded you can go do 'details' that click and copy either the direct link or the 'BB code' and paste that into you post. Re-sizing is automatic when you link from the Gallery. I just tried it and came-up with this: This is from cutting and pasting the 'BB code' Click on the image and it enlarges.

Here is a copy and paste of the image direct link with insert image button used after the cut and paste. Couldn't get the HTML Embed to work for some reason



The other option is photobucket, as an earlier post stated. The difference being you can work with the pic in your 'album' here at this website rather than having to log onto Photobucket's site by going to 'media' > albums >my albums clicking the picute you want, then selecting 'details' for the pick to show the info that you need to copy and paste into your post.

Thanks Tremor. I am close to understanding the complete process of storing and sharing photos using Media / Albums.

What is BB codes?

Are there instructions at YST.com that explain how to do what you said? If there is and simple to find we would not be having this discussion.
