when you click the "reply" button, there's a little box under the lower left corner of the box you write the messages in, that says "Additonal options", click that, click the "browse" button on the right side of the "attach" line, find yer pics on yer computer and attach them, click the "more attachments" button if you have more than one, then post yer reply....or better, start a new thread, unless you think others would be inspired by posting it here....

Easier is to use the 'IMG' icon (beside the YouTube icon) with Photobucket. Just click that were you want to insert a photo, and 'copy/paste' the IMG code provided by Photobucket. This shows when you place your cursor over the photo. A drop down list appears with various links, the bottom one is the IMG. Note you have to delete the extra IMG's that come with the photo.

Yep......if you have a photobucket account...but if the account gets dropped, you get a bunch of pic size blanks with red xs when the pic is no longer available.

That usually happens because you have exceeded the monthly bandwidth allowance. Happened to me, and I just opened another account with a new email address. Moved a couple of photos over to the new account to get under the bandwidth ceiling, and the old one now sits dormant.

I use a free photobucket for my build thread, and many personal pics as well. Thousands in total, never any problem with bandwidth. I think the most serious thing you hav to rememebr is once you link a photo from a folder at PB into the forum, you can't refile it into another folder without breaking the link. PB warns you when you may be ready to do this.

If anyone is using more space than PB gives one for free, well wow thats a lot of pictures!

Anti-Johnny · « **Reply #6735 on:** March 10, 2011, 04:01:58 PM »

ive been using dropbox lately. It gives you a folder in your computer that you can access on any other computer. Its synced to a cloud. You can link pictures the same way as PB, its not as pretty looking but it seems more secure and you can use it for anything on a computer, not just pictures. Probably takes a little more self training than PB too though.

Its not a space issue, but bandwidth used for posting. The big problem there is the size of the photos. My camera's pictures are generally around 2+Mb. If I leave them like that, and post them it, uses a lot of bandwidth. I now resize them when I save them in Photobucket for posting.

By the by, the interviewer is http://www.angelacatterns.com.au/, a Goddess of Radio in Australia for we baby boomers.
Unfortunately Brad Patterson, who arguably "invented" drifting

...... a bit like someone claiming that they invented the mono or the stoppie, must have faded into the ether as I can't find diddly squat about him anywhere.

Hey OZ...
That's kind crap & a waste of time and bandwithe... Ive seen a hand full of them and it's all the same hipster crap...
Sorry.. But I'd trash that, not cool for here either.. I'd hope to think everyone that NEEDS this page is looking to keep there chins up when there build is kicking there ass.. And to know "It CAN be done!!!"

Just my 2 cents...

I got about halfway though it ..it's kinda funny yeah , but then becomes overflowing with misinformation ...it insults the intelligence of anyone who knows better

That was truely tasteless.

This is the youth of our country. Cybertarded puke puke puke. Ozcaferacer, if mocking the very community you chose to belong is your way of inspiring me, please don't.

Calling Bob W and Steve, how about a moderator intervention?

Did I miss something? It seemed to be satirical in nature, making fun of wannabe's...Didn't seem like something to let your feathers get ruffled over. Like I said, did I miss something?

Retro Rocket · « **Reply #6747 on:** March 15, 2011, 04:17:14 PM »

Get over it you lot, it IS funny to some of us and we also don't all have to like cafe racers. For your information it has already been posted on here before , Oz isn't mocking anything guys so don't look to stir #$%*, The video does the mocking and it is funny, if you don't find it funny then don't watch it. There is absolutely NO NEED FOR MODERATION, try a teaspoon of cement and HTFU......

This isn't a cafe community guys its a SOHC Honda community and we cater for all tastes....

Flying J · « **Reply #6748 on:** March 15, 2011, 04:25:13 PM »

Yeah its nothing to get all worked up about. They are making fun of the type of guys who think slapping some clubmans and building a cafe seat from wood is a cafe racer. We dont have a lot of these guys but over on dotheton there are a few more. I assume thats where the video came from. If you know anything about cafe history you know how far off it is and it is a bit funny. I mean come on carpy's dad invinted cafe racers... thats funny. But i would not post in the inspiration gallery.
Also the guy never mentioned that a true cafe racer has emgo pods.

cb550fcafe · « **Reply #6749 on:** March 15, 2011, 04:50:59 PM »

A warning before linking that maybe the language would not be appropriate for my kids to hear.... and they did. This is more for the open forum. Again I'm not inspired.

Sure if I knew what it was about, I wouldn't watch it, but how do I know BEFORE I watch it? I usually link everything in this thread, its one of my must stop and read threads.

I don't know, I could have done without the language, maybe I'd see it different. A 5 year old dropping f-bombs isn't funny. Parents would understand.

Ahh the cement isn't for me, I'll just STFU
