Pooface,

It's not a camaro but it's real racing...  The second pic has the event info.  Fun :)  In the third pic, I'm doing around 120 mph on the superspeedway track.  We were paced at 80 but I was last in line so I lagged off quite a bit and then went fast to catch up.  The car is fast enough that nobody noticed/complained.

Images have to be hosted on a website somewhere, and then you can use the "IMG" button and enter in the location of the picture.

If skuzzy really loved us he'd dedicate some hard drive space to allowing users to upload images (reasonably sized ones of course), but I guess he's a cold cold man at heart.

(er just kidding skuzzy, you really da man)

Sorry, I don't have much space on my website.  If I put much stuff in there, my isp will start charging me fees.  Someone else might be able to host them for you, or you can probably even get some free webspace somewhere.  Most internet accounts include space for a free smallish website...  Try checking to see if your internet provider offers this.  Most have instructions on their website.

basically, the forum shows images that are already on the net, so all you do is put a link to em and they show up. what youll need to do is go to an imagehosting site (try www.imageshack.us )

once youve got them on the net, make a post, and click the img button above the text box, it will ask you for the address of the pic (so copy paste the url of your pics) and your done:p

I would be glad the bird hit only the window and not any of the body parts. Immagine the cost of repair if it had hit where the windshield meets the roof-

akak - are you sure that was a real bird? It's still in one piece, there's no blood, and the windscreen has been badly damaged.

I was in the front seat of my dad's car many years ago, when a pheasant, which had been picking away at an animal in the middle of the road that had been run over earlier, rose up to HO us. We hit it at about 50/60, and there was blood, guts and feathers all over the windscreen - which was unbroken despite this being before the days of laminated windscreens.

The one in your pic looks more like a rubber chicken.

Its almost clear, that suicider were penguin.

Since he attempted to kill crew, he can be considered terrorist, thus linux is thread to national seccurity.


Got it ?

:D

I HOed some little birdie (4-5cm tall) in CLK last year in germany. He were flying on the right side of the road, but he was to slow and his tail lights were off.
Later on, when we parked at the petrol station, we found him in the mask. It was clear, that 1 second before he rammed our "still standing" mercedez, he turned his head back. 0.1 seconds before his dead, he wanted to say something smart to us so he opened his mouth. But before he said something he had piece of german steel in his mouth doing some 150 km/h.... ummm poor little birdie.  But he died in one piece, and it proof that mercedez is more nature friendly that Porsche.

Only a complete bellybutton would pay that much for an automobile.
