    Hi and . Easiest way to post pics is to use a photo hosting site like supload.com and just post the html in the post (needs the [IMG] tags).

    hey thanks Brockey.... when things get slow in the shop the guys like to keep busy.. so we get a little stupid i guess and go kinda crazy on the atv"s/atc"s and you know how that goes..... cant stop once you get started lol lol im going to take a bunch of pic"s over the weekend and get this picture thing figured out... keeps saying the files are to big ? 805. and the site only allows 250. so i gotta shrink them down i guess ? lol lol im working on it would love to be able to share my toys and hard work with others out there.
