very nice. But I have a question. How do you get picture on here like that? The only thing I've ever been able to do is "attachments"

Help me out here.

Dave.

It's called 'leeching' in the web development community. The pictures must be posted on some other website somewhere (CarDomain in the example above) and then you can insert the address of the image using the

[ img ] [ /img ]

tags. Extra spaces inserted to make the tags display. The only problem with leeching is that if the original ever moves or is deleted, users on the sites doing the leeching can't see it anymore. If you search through old posts here and see broken image icons or red Xs, that's what's happened. The original leeched picture is moved, re-named or gone.

So for an example, if I enclose the following url of a picture off my own website inside those tags, I get the picture shown just below it. The picture actually still lives on my website, it's just displayed here.

on cardomain if you click on the pics once it will make them the size of my pictures posted...then follow the directions from above (right click properties..etc etc)

i'm glad i was able to help out guys :)

Unfortunately the weather has turned for the cold and I think my Z days are limited for 2007 :(
