What do you think about link posting your photos? Here is a good example from Seawings.

Works for me too Bob!...

Another way to share a photo on almost ANY webpage is to find the image, put your mouse over it and press your RIGHT mouse button. A menu will pop up, select "Properties" at the bottom of the list. You will then be displayed a new window showing you all the propertiers for that photo/image you right clicked on... Notice the text after where it says "Address (URL)". This text is the web link to the photo/image... this is the text/link you need to copy to the forum post you are making. To copy, use your left mouse button (holding it down) to select all text after the "Address (URL)"... with all the text highlighted/selected, press and hold the Ctrl (control) key on your keyboard while pressing the letter "C" (this copies the selected text). Now, when you are in your forum post, place your cursor where you want to insert your image/picture. Just above the post window, you will see a bunch of boxes/selections for inserting stuff into your post... locate the "Img" button and press it... this should insert two "Img" tags (as they are called)... click your mouse so that the cursor is between the two "Img" tags,... then again press/hold the Ctrl key and press the "V" key to paste the copied link into the forum post. It should look like this (without quotes):

"<img>http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa28 ... 2.jpg</img>"

Pasting this link between the two "Img" tag in your forum post will display this pic as shown below:

Tom is this your next float plane project? Perhaps you can make it with a 150" wingspan and couple of motors from the new Chevy Volt! LOL Hey, then you COULD fly me to Nantucket! :lol:

LMAO... naw... but it would be a cool project nevertheless!
I'm still deciding on a float project... I have a pr. of 40-60 size water floats coming in from Hobby King... might try them on my 46-size U-Can-Do (Greatplanes). I've flown this plane with wheels and even snow skis... now it's time for floats I think! :D
