I use photobucket.com


great for sharing you're pictures.

And it has different link, post options.


I just use the IMG, link option for posting here.


U can make your photos at photobucket, private or public. if you make them private. you can still post / link them. But they will only be able to be viewed so many times.

Your image URL needs to end with .jpg, .gif, .png, etc.

Why can't you make it easy and have an attachment button below this window so you can upload pics straight from your phone?

Well, that would mean that we would have to host the images on our web server. Images take up a lot of storage space and space costs money (as a recurring monthly charge).

Ok, the track my brother and I built is really cool. 4 lanes with gate at 34', or 42'. The guild rails are finished with checkerboard tape in red, yellow, green, and blue, and the outside edge of the track is finished off with black and white checkerboard, the deck is 1/4 smooth masonite with 4 coats of gloss polyurethane, sanded and hand buffed to a glass like finish..we took it to the adult derby we race in and used it for the electric cars with the gate at 42', one guy ran 42' in 1.32 sec!!

Howdy Gramps,
I'm very familiar with electric cars. Might we see some pictures of all the cars that raced?
