  • If anyone can advice me on how to get pics on here I will post some...
  • Bad news - really sorry to hear about that. I hope the insurance company sort themselves out.

    Pictures on the forum? Below is text that should help you out....

    HOW TO ADD PICTURES

    First up, an explanation of what the forum does with pictures: it doesn't upload them to the site - it displays images from other existing sources. This way, the site doesn't get bogged down with costly data.

    So, find your picture hosted anywhere on the net; facebook, flickr etc
    or...
    Upload your own picture on to the net. I've tried ImageShack to upload my own pictures - it was effortless enough, a couple of clicks and you can copy the 'Direct Link' code.

    NOTE: It also has an option to 'resize' your picture with a basic guide to approx size suitable for different screen sizes.

    Once you have chosen or uploaded your picture...

    STEP 1. Copy the address link the picture is hosted at and paste it into the CCA forum 'Enter your comments' box. On a Mac, if I click on a picture while holding down 'Ctrl' on the keyboard, I get the option to 'Copy link'. Not sure this is the same for PCs.

    STEP 2. Highlight the pasted address, and click the 'img' box, the 6th box along, just above the comments box.

    STEP 3. Paste the address into the dialogue boxes that appear. And click 'cancel' on the request to describe the pic.

    Make sure you have the html button on in the 'format comments as' bit below.

    That's it! Write whatever else you want and click 'Start your discussion' to see the final thing. Give it a try with a Test discussion if you like.
  • bad news CayoPro. We'll keep eyes peeled once we see the pics.....only one solution guys, but wives and partners aren't going to like it..........our favourite bikes are going to have to share the house ...probably hanging on some well viewed wall.they'll probably draw the line at the bedroom tho'
  • Sorry to hear this. Might be worth keeping an eye on Ebay and Gumtree.
  • Thanks guys, I am on Ebay and Gumtree daily and I have done "saved searches" on both, still NO joy though................GUTTED
