Testing how to post a photo...
...pardon my driver training errors
This is a link to a photo of the two bikes hanging from the ceiling in my garage:

Trying to insert the same image here using the BBS "Insert Image" button
(looks broken)

You can't post pics hosted from a third party site like Flickr but you can post pics the you have stored on your computer by following the directions in post 3.

Once you find the link, it is pretty self explanatory. By default it will dump your photos to the end of your post, although you can move them anywhere in your post by manually typing:
[Attach] (image ID number) [/Attach]
with the appropriate image ID number. I always like to use JPG images.If you've hit your maximum daily posts, you may still be able to edit existing posts, I think.

It is usually frowned upon to make a bunch of fake posts. And, you're probably locked yourself out for 24 hours.
You've actually uploaded a bunch of photos to your album.

Unfortunately I don't see any new posts that the photos go with.
Is that a mid 80's model Cinelli with Campagnolo "brifters"?

That's what I was attempting to find out. There were several posts indicating that one should post a few times and then the restrictions to post pictures will be lifted. I understand that's not proper protocol but I did not see any other way around it. Anyhow, I will attempt to post additional pictures in the vintage forum. I recently picked up this bike and it looks like 80s Italian steel but unfortunately someone gave it a flat black rattle can paint job and removed all of the decals.
