Hello,
I recdently tried to start a new thread. I included pics. of a work in progress and titled it "Street Fightin' M.A.N.N. When I finished uploading the pics through the photo host affiliated with this site, I got little 'RED X of DEATH" where the images should have been. Anyone know why this would happen? What can I do to fix it? Can I just upload the photos from my laptop dirrectly to the post like one can do on other high quality forums? Please help.

Try this:




also, I use photo- bucket for image hosting. It's a free online image hosting service and super easy to use

You can't upload directly from your laptop, the photos have to have a hosting site that is a permanently 'available' link for the web.
I suggest using the kitmaker gallery. You upload your photos then link them from the gallery to your 'Street Fighting M.A.N.N.' thread (btw,great name)

Cheers,
Charles
