Re: Photo Test

Hey Classic, I wanted to post this reply here too so I would be sure you got it .If you have a website or webhosting just copy your photo URL(address). Do this by right clicking photo you want in your post and click properties , then highlight URL with your mouse right click again and click copy. Then click "IMAGE" on full reply or post new topic page. It is located below your topic column where instant Graemlins and instant UBB code headings are shown.Then paste your pics URL in the pop-up window and it will post your pics in your reply!!!! Hope this helps classic!!! Let me know if I can be of further help, RR

Re: Photo Test

Thanks Riddlers Ride, Let me try again.<br />

<br />There we go. Those were happier days on the water. Little did I know I was damaging the hull with every pounding wave. I'll be ready for next year.

Re: Photo Test

Re: Photo Test

Bubbakat, I'm not sure what the advantage is to use photobucket. What is "hosting"? Previously I included a link to my Yahoo photo site and readers have viewed my photos there. The photo above is from my Yahoo site.

Re: Photo Test

go into your yahoo photo gallery and open the relevant image and just paste the url into the reply text box, dont use the image button as it will apear like your above posts for example:<br /><br />my boat:<br /><br /> http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/gory.shaw@btopenworld.com/detail?.dir=e250&.dnm=2a37.jpg <br /><br />hope this helps

Re: Photo Test

Some members are not members of yahoo and if they are not logged in they will only get the red x<br />That is what it is showing me but I can go to the site where you have them stored and look at them.

Re: Photo Test

Bubbakat, I see a x box on my first post and a photo in my second post, are you seeing two posts without photos?

 

[bubbakat]

Re: Photo Test

yep the dreaded red x<br />This is what you are trying to show in the first one isn't it.<br />

Re: Photo Test

Yup, that was my first try. It's like a fish outta water, and it still is out of the water. Is another hosting site the only solution or will beermonsta's suggestion work for everyone?<br /><br /><br />classicboater

Re: Photo Test

Try the link that bubbakat gave. Photobucket works fine but it is starting to get very popular, if you are going to register, do it soon before they start charging <br /><br />Aldo

Re: Photo Test

My solution is by no means the best solution. it's just an easy solution.

Re: Photo Test

<br />Yes, I had a cracked keel. No wonder it leaked!!!

Re: Photo Test

I've posted more pics on photobucket so you can see what I'm up against. Might take a while before I get the photos organized, but you get the picture. <br /> http://photobucket.com/albums/v423/classicboater/

Re: Photo Test

G Dane, yes it is a '60s, 1964 in fact. The boat is an Alpex Sea Aira by Alumacraft. The motor is an Evinrude Speedifour 75hp. What a team!! The motor took some work to get it performing properly then I pounded her around the lake with tube in tow and found the floor was rotted and the hull started to flex (and crack). Now we're doing some restoration, not show quality but to make her seaworthy. There's always next year.

Re: Photo Test

You already did a fine job cleaning everything up. I just did some stringer work on mine, you wont regret being carefull with that, feels good when its done.

Re: Photo Test

There is nothing wrong with fixing up an old boat. Heck mine is a 1976 but there is one thing you and I and several others on here can brag about.<br />1- we know what is under the floor<br />2- We know exactly how many payments left on it.
