Classified Pictures

[taosbill]

 Haven't been on for a while and imagine how I felt when I went to the Classifieds and NO pictures. Guessing that something has changed and it is now almost impossible to post a picture with a "For Sale". Dumb question: why is that?
So I am going to try and post a picture with this post and see what the problem is. Well think I see the problem. We have a "Insert Image"  and it displays "" which I am sure all Valkyrie owners knows how to complete. We have 28 HTML functions and 25 of these things  ??? BUT not a single Help button anywhere. Has someone counted how many HTML things have been in forum messages the last 6 months? I guess not. How about a simple attach image and throw the rest of the HTML junk out?
Just asking.

Taosbill, you need to store your images online somewhere like Photobucket.  Then copy the img link and paste it inline with your message.
Should put a [img ]      and a [/img ] without the extra space I put in there so you could see the img code

I just want to see bike pictures in the Classifieds now that I am looking for an interstate and only a couple had pictures while most have NO pictures. Why is that?

I agree. I always use pics when selling anything, been selling allot of guns lately and photos sure work well. If I don't see pics I just move on.

toasbill, nothing has changed in the way the Classifieds are posted.  It is quite possible for sellers to post pictures with their ads.  In fact we have provided two methods for posting pictures in the Classifieds as opposed to the one method available on the other boards.

When you notice pictures aren't posted with ads it will be one of two reasons.  Either the poster has chosen not to include a picture, or your internet provider is blocking images from his source. The latter may occur often when one is accessing the VRCC boards from his work site.  The former happens often with posters who are not long time members of the forum and have recently joined to post their ads.

In the VRCC community there are a lot of riders looking for an Interstate and few selling one.  You may find a lot of competition fishing for that particular item.
