this site is different than other that i have been on, how do i upload pics to my profile from my computer at home? and thank you all for the welcome. i ride an '08 vulcan 1600 clasic. as soon as i find out how to get the pics on you'll see it

 

[jim k]

what im looking for is, besides sharing commoin interests, is to find local folks to ride with or jsut hang out with - during riding season and in the off season. i enjoy riding solo, with my girl, and with groups.

 

[jim k]

can you add pictures to your profile or does it have to be within the thread/post? how do you accomplish either one?

 

[W-P Bill]

When I joined up, I was practically forced (well, heavily persuaded, anyway) by other BTK types to set up a Photobucket account and link pics that way.

Welcome Jim! I know Skipaxe live in CT, I'm sure there are others too! Do you like long rides? If so, a bunch of us meet up in PA every year (including Skip). Next year, it looks like we'll be spending lots of time in WVa.

If you're interested, here is the thread: http://www.kawasakimotorcycle.org/forum/rides-events-rallies/120159-2010-pa-forum-ride-planning-poll.html You would have a great time and we're always looking for new victims, err, I mean people :wink: to join us.

 

[jim k]

ok, yes i do like long rides, my girl and i have been on 5.5 hr rides. how do i set up an account with "photobucket"? and is that the only way to have pics on this forum?

 

[W-P Bill]

Go to the website, its pretty well explained in the directions how to sign up. As far as the only way? Probably not, but its the system I use.

Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket

Once you post pix to PB, open up another browser window to your BTK account and open up a reply window. Back to PB, just click on IMG code below the pic you want to post, that should highlight the code in blue. Then its "copy," shift back over to BTK then "paste."

 

[jim k]

sounds like a pain in the *** to show pics. but if you post them in a thread then folks have to search the thread to find them.
