The bandwidth usage has gotten crazy, and the host is giving us all kinds of shiz about it, so you cannot upload/attach pictures to your posts at this point. If you want to post pics, upload them to a site like picturetrail, or photobucket, or imageshack or something, and use image tags. Here's a quick little tutorial to learning how to use image tags.

PaulFiveOh has set up a site where you can relatively easily upload pics to use on the site also. Just check the following thread, and use the site he's provided.

Sorry, but that's just the way it's going to have to be for a little while. The only suggestion I can give to get things back online a little quicker is to donate some of your hard-earned cash to the best site on the net. You can donate as much or as little as you want, and every dollar will help get the bill footed for the new server/hosting. If you want to donate, go here.

Matt is doing the best he can to keep the place going, and this is just a temporary thing to keep things flowing smoothly. Once we have a place to keep things running solidly with the high server load we demand, pictures will be turned back on, and there will surely be some more cool little add-ons to the site.

For what it's worth, i use Cardomain for all my car picture postings. You can upload your pics there and you don't HAVE to display the pics on your cardomain page...simply upload the pic, and where you go in to edit your pictures, click on the picture you want to host over here, right click on it and copy image location and paste that in the /img tag field and it'll work the same as if you had pics on your CD page. The only downfall is every pic is embedded with their logo...but it works well enough and it's fast and easy.

Its Free. There is no Bull Crap, No Frills. And I even wrote it in an web applet so that it takes 2 seconds to use.

New host is great and we've only had two very minor issues which were resolved very quickly, but the attachment feature is staying off.

Sorry, but it's more hassle than it's worth and there are a hundred free picture hosting sites out there.
