    The best way, imo, of posting photos on forums is via a picture-hosting website such as photobucket.com.

    The process is straightforward:

    1. Take your pics with your camera or phone;

    2. Put them onto your computer;

    3. Create a photobucket account, then upload your pics to your account;

    4. When you want to share yours pics on forums or in e-mails, just copy the link from the Photobucket picture you want to share and paste it into your forum comment or e-mail.

    Done !

    When sharing pictures try to ensure that the file size is not tooooooooo large. On modern picture-taking equipment you can adjust the file size in the cameras settings. This way it is easy for peeps to view them. I normally aim for a size roughly 800x550. It gives a nice large picture big enough to pretty much fill a normal laptop screen, the with a file size relatively small.

    Let me show you what I mean:

    Std. size pic:

    DSCN1269.JPG

    The above picture is 2048x1536 and has a file size of roughly 1mb. Not extraordinarily big, but big enough to slow things down.

    The picture below 320x240 with a file size of 72kb so roughly one 15th the file size. Both of these pics came directly from my laptop.

    And here's one from my Photobucket account:

    Welcome to the forum - a mate of mine had a Honda Transalp for several yrs - good bike , he's just part ex'd it for a nearly new Honda with a 1200 cc engine - similar looking to the transalp - something crosser or something - but anyway I had a quick ride on it & typical Honda , it was perfect in every way just about , felt very planted & smooth & fast
