if you want to resize images, you can download a small program called irfanview from http://www.irfanview.com/

it's a great little image viewer, very fast, supports just about every format under the sun, and lets you do some basic editing.

to resize an image in irfanview, just install the program and start it up.
drag your image file into the main window and it'll open it.
then click the IMAGE menu at the top of the screen, and select RESIZE/RESAMPLE.
this will bring up a small window with a few options in it.
the easiest is to just pick "Set new size as percentage of original", and type in, say, 50 into each of the little boxes underneath.
Click OK.
your picture is now resized.

click the FILE menu, select SAVE AS, give your resized image a new file name and save it somewhere you can find it. keep your original image somewhere else, in case you want it for something else in the future.

you get the url of the picture from photobucket or imageshack, and type:
(img)url goes here(/img)
just replace (img) with [img].

if you want to resize use www.imageshack.us since they can resize and host the file too.

Well???

In one of your previous thread you use photobucket. That will do, its what I use. See the code that says [img]....

copy and paste that code into a post.


by the way, the NA's rims look HUGE. They'd go better on the 951 though

You could also become a member, take good pics, upload to the Rennlist member server and link to there.

Not being a jerk, just one solution to the problem.
