That sounds pretty good indeed! The best way to post the pictures would be to get a free account in a web site that stores pictures. I use [b]Photo Bucket/b] at: www.photobucket.com All you do is register, painless, then click on upload. It will go to where your pictures are on your computer. You click on a picture and then click "upload". Your picture will then appear in your album on Photo Bucket. Under the picture is a choice of things to click on. You want the bottom one. Click on the left side of it. You will see a very fast message the says "copied". That information is stored on YOUR computer.

Now you are on here, in this thread. Where ever you want the picture to go to all you have to do is make sure your cursor is there....go to "Edit" at the top of your screen, click it, one of the options is "paste"....click on it. Your picture will be there when anyone reads your post.

It may seem kind of long and drawn out but it's really very simple.

My cousin lives right in the middle of Eglin in Holley,Navarre area.
10 bucks for a year pass.I've been wheelin for over 2 years here,
and just barely ridden a fraction of the trails there.
Took my cousin and uncle on a few trails and"Wa-La",
now they have a big rockcrawler TJ and joined the
Emerald coast jeepers.
If you've never been there,you gotta check it out.best lil secret round.

By the way,all my pinstripe'n and brushburn came at the hands of your state.
Nobody round there packing a pair of pruiners.

That was for the CRD. They messed up and mixed battery types. Not a good idea.
