I'm a long time Harley rider from the Madison area.   I'm usually a nice guy, but then, I have a Bad Influence.

Right now I own a custom 2004 Dyna named "Black Betty," and a semi-tricked out 2010 Sportster 48 named "Spinner. "

If you are trying to post through the "attachments and other options" then you are limited. That is for pictures 2 twice the size of an avatar, which is not that big.

Your better off using URL from a photobucket account to get a decent size.

Heh-heh ~ welcome dude!  :laugh:  We all DO manage to have a LOT of fun in here... just sayin'.  :bogie: Anyways I think as long as you keep the image size under 600 x 800 pixels you'll be 'In Like Flint'  :teeth:  Nuff' said.  :thumbsup:

Okay, let's try it.   

Nope, didn't work.   I tried a Sportster pic at 320x240, and got an 'hxxp' and a little box with a red "X" in it.

Ya' know, some places make you post a certain number of times before pics or links can be posted.   Is that the rule here?

Hmm?  :dunno:  Try going to the image upload section at http://www.motorcyclistsunited.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=add;cat=1 ~ your Sporty image was well under 600 x 800 so should work?! Keep the file name simple ~ that helps!  :laugh:  Then once it's on the site you can copy and paste the code to a post ~ F'n A! :thumbsup:

Do you have a photobucket account or any image picture  account? You copy the url address from a photo on any  image account and paste the address in your post.

It will look something similar to this in your post: [img].yourpitureaddress.con[img]. When you submit the post you will have a picture. On my phone at the moment so this the best I can do for a example. 

No, there is no minimum post for attaching a photo now. There will be 1 coming in the near futher due to spammer activity.
