GTS_365 asked me how I did my images in my for sale section. He must like my work. :) So I thought I would share how I did it in a simple but effective way.

Hi mate
I'm selling a car on here. Please tell me how to post pics just like the way you did. Thanks
The way I did it was to have the images in 2 sizes on my web space. EG: one called image.jpg and one called image_small.jpg.
1. Have a large and a small version uploaded to web space.
2. Use the 'Insert Image' button on the message editing bar to insert the 'image_small.jpg' image into the message.
3. Select the created text, all the stuff beteween the square brackets and then select 'Insert Hyperlink'. Link to the large image (EG: image.jpg).
4. Repeat process for all images or copy and past the info down and just edit the image name as u go.
5. For extra clarity you may consider adding a line of text below your image saying something like 'Click image for a larger version'.
I hope this helps, please ask if you need me to clarify anything.

Also, if there is any interest, I can offer some web hosting for your car pictures and LS1 related info only. Reply to this thread if there is any interest and I'll set up an ftp account and web space.
