Just a note on file size on your pictures you post in the forum. While ***boat has no size limit, very large file size greatly degrades the loading time of the pages, even on high speed connections like DSL. Dial up, forget it, go eat dinner and come back and the page might be loaded.
Please keep your pic file size at around 150K or less (preferably less). We've got some right now in HUD's Wild V Drive thread that are much larger than that and the pages are litterly crawling to load because of it.
To achieve 150K or less generally you should save at 72dpi and no more than 750 pixels on the width so most screens can view them without the scroll bar. Photos can be resized with many different software programs. Many dig cameras now come with software capable of basic resizing or obviously you can use higher end programs like Photoshop. While I haven't used it I understand Windows XP includes imaging software to accomplish this also.
Also, very important. Please save the files as JPEG's not BMP's. BMP file sizes are huge by comparison.
Thanks for the help in this area to keep the pages loading quickly for everyone.
-------------------------------------------
Basics on posting pics on the forums. The following is based upon MS Internet Explorer, I am not familiar with other browsers so all of the below may not apply to other than IE.
First thing is you must have your image hosted somewhere on the internet.. This can be ***boat image center or elsewhere, doesn't matter. What you can't do is have it on you own computer and have it appear in a thread (although you can add it as an attachment directly from your computer - An attachement will not show in the thread as an image though, it will show as a link).
Assuming you done the above (hosted your picture)...
Bring the image up on screen wherever you have it hosted (we'll assume ***boat image center for now).
Right click on the image
A drop down menu will appear. At the bottom will be properties
Click on properties.
A window will popup showing information on the photo.
One of the things will be the URL address which starts with http....
Highlight the address (starting with the http) with your cursor by holding down the left button and dragging over the text.
Go do edit on your tool bar (edit) and click "copy" (this copys the address you just highlighted to the clipboard on your computer) (the keyboard shortcut for "copy" is CTRL C.
Now go to the thread you want to post in (a second window open is handy for this)
When you post you will see a series of buttons at the top of the posting window.
Click on IMG which is the little square with the mountain in it.
A separate window will pop up that will have http.... in it. The http... will be highlighted. Now go to your tool bar again (edit) and click on "paste". (The keyboard shortcut for "paste" is CTRL V).
This pastes the address of the picture (which you copied earlier) into the little pop up window.
Click done or whatever it says to complete. You will now see the image address code appear within your posting window.
Its important you only have one "http series" within your IMG tags in the little drop down box. If you have 2 you will need to delete one of them.
When finished your code should look something like this (with no spaces) and substituting [ ] for my ( ).
(IMG]http://yourpictureaddress[/IMG)
You can type message above or below the IMG tags but don't disturb them or anything between them because that is your picture address code.

Hope this helps. I use it everytime I post pics. :D

Looks like a Hot Boater helped them by pushing the thing out of the lake!
http://www2.***boat.com/image_center/data/520/672Bounder01.jpg

[victorfb]

that sucks big time, but i can definatly see it happening on that ramp. was there yesterday and the ramp is slick as hell. if you dont have the front brakes on and the back tires are even slightly in the water its gunna slide. you cant even stand in the water without sliding down the algea covered concrete ramp. its too bad nobody was in the couch when it started sliding, a quik foot on the brake pedal would have most likey stopped it. but with just the rears locked up, its going in. dont harras the owner too bad, it could have been anyone, trust me. if your going to elsinore and use that ramp, try and find a spot that has been used a bunch as the tires from previous vehicles will clean up the moss/algea a bit. be careful.

I always stay out of this kind of stuff but that is to freakin funny LOL

[piper]

That sux. :(

[gnarley]

Gives a new meaning to boaterhome

[MagicMtnDan]

It probably stayed dry inside right? :D

[92562]

Use the public (City) ramp on the East side of the lake. Not as wide, but it's in great shape.

Frenchies legs gotta be what ..20 -25 feet long?? :notam:

Yes, everyone use that ramp. It is so great!!! It is not too steep, no one ever uses it, and the wind chop never gets to it.
Leave Elsinore Marina to us po folk...don't even check it out...it sucks...stay away. :rollside:

[BLOWN HOWARD]

Frenchies legs gotta be what ..20 -25 feet long?? :notam:
Actually its not that deep right there, the back was floating and the front was on the ground, And come to think of it i thought i saw a new white ford in the parking lot. :cool:

LMAO.... funny shit. Where's Frenchie?? I miss him

[RiverRacer]

Looks like quite the racing hull out there. Wonder if it got checked for mufflers before they launched it!

[DryHeatOnly]

Good thing there weren't any kids inside.

Did the boat get launched OK :supp:

[BLOWN HOWARD]

Did the boat get launched OK :supp:
My boat got barely launched ok but the motorhome was only launching Jet ski's

[MoparSanger]

Holy S%$T!! LOL
:messedup:

[Jrocket]

motorhome was only launching Jet ski's
Now Im seeing the connection!

[JetBoatRich]

Now Im seeing the connection!
LOL :D wonder if he unstrapped them or sunk the skis as well :confused:

[rsoscia]

I've got the top bunk this time , yours is under water

[72Hallett]

I was there today and a couple of weekends ago. That ramp is slick. You can't walk up it without holding on to your boat, trailer or truck. Two weekends ago I not only launched my boat, but also Bruce-Squeezing Spectra. Thanks Bruce, the engine runs better than I ever expected.

[essexjet]

Now Im seeing the connection!
Ha me too!! The first thing when he said Jet Skis :hammerhea :hammerhea

[bchbum]

What does it cost to launch a motorhome at the lake ,is it more than a boat only ?

[Sleek-Jet]

They better close that roof vent, or that thing is going to sink... :D
http://www2.***boat.com/image_center/data/500/2066motorhome_003.jpg

[HOSS]

That sucks. Algae plays hell. If the water is low I always rip my mud tires to clean it off. Hate when stuff like this happens to people. Even if the brake was on and in park with that weight and slime it still happens.

[burtandnancy]

It did sink! Thats a deep as it gets.

[thesunking]

How could anyone say human error when you a have crew like this. . . .
