Your first step is to sign up for free web hosting. If you have not done this, visit this site, and sign up. It'll walk you though everything.

Then, once you have uploaded images to them...you will see each image in a thumbnail with three addresses under each one. Copy the address that has the [IMG] tags, and post it into a thread. Then submit, and your picture will automatically be displayed on that post.

Oh I know...but you posted it. I'd been thinking about making something like that, but just never got around to it.

You know it's too big when you have to scroll sideways on the post to read all the text. I usually scale them down to 500 or 600 width with a proportionate height. Smaller is also better for forum members that still use dial-up.

Yep, I have never had a problem. The outfit that did all my chrome back when, did a good job. Even did my headlight accuators. Said they had a hell of a time with them as they wanted to float. Didn't hurt the diaphrams in them at all. But the outfit sold out to someone and now their chrome sucks.

I just found a place in Cali that does a new kind of plating...looks just as good as chrome, and can be done to anything, Plastic, wood, all metals...seems like a good place to get to know. I think it's called Chromeworks.
