If so how?
Hi Greg. Yes, just click the "choose file" button in the "upload attachment" section when writing a post. You should be able to find the picture on your iPad, the click "Add the file".

You will probably find that the image is too large for the forum though, there is a size limit on each file uploaded and it's quite low by modern standards. I've installed an App to resize images called SimpleResize which seems to work well. There are others available. The app creates a smaller copy of the image which can then be uploaded as described above.

Hope that helps.

When the image is open in photobucket, there are a series of 'Links to share this photo' on the right hand side. Copy the 'IMG' link into your post, and when you press preview or submit on the forum it inserts the image. Guide here: http://support.photobucket.com/hc/en-us ... ing-Images

Alternatively if you have the URL of the image you can put the image tags around it:

Beautiful car, probably the wrong area of the forum though! I'm not seeing the front mounted 4 cylinder in those shots :wink:

Mine recently proved it could withstand a camping trip to Snowdonia :)

Drove my 931 a bit in the weekend. Every time I drive this car it makes me love it more. All the details the roughness and how its just different from the normal 924s and 944s make it so much more loveable.
It makes the right noises, turbo spooling up, wastegate fluttering and exhaust crackling at deceleration.
To me its so special its almost like an early 911...actually its like an early 911 in its own distinctive way of delivering driving sensations.
