Is this an old man's thread again???

[MadCow]

[Suzuki Johnny]

You may not know it already..but us ole farts are glad that someone is looking out for us [emoji106]

[Suzuki Johnny]

And you do it very well Sir...........
I have the greatest respect for anyone who has to strap a firearm on his / her hip as a requirement for employment...

In the last few weeks we have had several rally for the Thin Blue Line....several hundred bikers assembled in my hometown about three weeks ago to show our support of the Blue Line...last Saturday three such events took place in Beaumont, Texas..some 57 miles west ......the turn out for that event was so large that they ad to break it up into three groups...besides almost unbearable heat and humidity..again several hundred bikers attended..
Another event is scheduled to take place in Lake Charles, La... where app the same amount of bikers will be in attendance ...
But to my way of thinking this should have been happening long ago....the untimely deaths of some LEO's in different parts of the country sparked these events....

I will be there to back the Blue...as always....I have several close friends who wear the badge and that makes it much more special and important for me to take an active role in supporting these badges....

So keep up the good work.....and oh BTW...........I Got Your Back

I kinda,sort of, well!! like to jerk his chain but he's to smart to get real mad .Glad most all my cop friends rode with over the years are ok people.The few not so nice ones I knew did not ride.Maybe that was the trouble?

[BlacktopTravelr]

Well, all I can say is I was looking all over hell and other places looking for a link or vid or something showing how to insert a pic.... when the vid popped up. Damn slow internet.

[frodo]

Nope...Sorry guys it just don't work for me, when I go into my picture file I lose intruders alert and when I go into Intruders Alert I lose my picture file.

I don't have a problem putting pictures up, I only have problems getting pictures from my picture file over to this forum. I've always used Tinypic Image host with never a problem. Now I can't seem to be on Tinypic or be in my picture file at the same time I'm in Intruders Alert Forum.

Anybody have an idea where I'm going wrong?

[Suzuki Johnny]

Seems like the video might just do the trick....and yes I also think that Don is switching from one page to another

Don ..on your screen do you see a small box ( top of the screen, Top left) on the immediate right of the web page you are using?
If so move your curser (mouse) on that small box and hit your left button on your mouse......a new web page (tab) will emerge on your screen
Use that screen to access the tinypic site.....that way you can bounce from one web page to another......
every time you hit that small box another screen will come up....just fill in the blanks with your url..


Set the video up Keith [emoji106]

[frodo]

No, it still doesn't work and now everything became super small on my screen and I don't know what to do to get it big again...

Phuck this crap, I give up!

[old time rider]

Sorry Don but works better for me than anything I have tried and sure you are smarter than this red neck. He will wish he never showed if by the time I show way too many.

[frodo]

There, fixed it for ya!
Now all you have to do is edit this post to see what the format looks like.
Please do not use thumb nails. We want the BIG pig pics. [emoji106]
Direct links are fine!

Yo-

[frodo]

Hmm, still no picture At least I'm trying

[old time rider]

Looks like mine before I hold the ctrl in and hit the press v once .Then the pic comes uo.Most every time [emoji2] Keep tryin Don want to see more of the bike.

[frodo]

Hmm, thanks Yo [emoji106] Now how do I get it larger or is that asking too much

[frodo]

I still don't know how it got up there or if I even had anything to do with it, but thanks anyway...

[YoDude]

If the original pic is actually larger, then you need to use the direct link to view it in its original state.
If the original pic is the size as that as ii's shown in your post, then there's nothing that can be done to make it larger.
It's easy to start off with a large pic and make it fit, the forum software does that automatically anyway.
Starting off with a small pic, doesn't leave any options really.

[YoDude]

When I used the link you used in your post, the pic shows a thumb nail photo of the bike.

http://i68.tinypic.com/2wf3kao_th.jpg

You can't really make that larger.

Yo-

[YoDude]

You need to start with the big pic.....

https://s26.postimg.org/fjm4iyyt5/20150524_180502.jpg

Then edit your post so it comes out like.....


Which all I did was...upload my large pick to my image host, in your case TinyPic and then I copied the direct link to this post, where you see the actual link that shows "https://s26.postimg.org/fjm4iyyt5/20150524_180502.jpg" above.

Then, all I did was click the Image button, and then paste that link in between the [img] tags and then post it.

Yo-

[frodo]

Yes the original picture is a 4" X 6" print so I would think it's large enough to duplicate...Now if I only knew how to do that.

[YoDude]

A 4" x 6" print like an actual photograph?

Plz explain to me exactly what you have and what you are doing, then I can better help you, Don.
