How to start a photo album

Add New Album Here

Click the link above and upload your photos using the tool provided, a per picture cap of 300k is imposed to prevent the server from bogging down, so you may have to crop your photos if the file size is over 300k. Please make sure to click the checkbox marked "public" so your album can be viewed. When photos are uploaded into the gallery they are automatically resized to 640 x 480 to save bandwidth, so final file sizes are smaller than uploaded.

available Sport Tires From SW Moto Tires

THIS IS A MOTORCYCLE FORUM!! Off topic photos of a non motorcycle subject are subject to possible deletion at the discretion of the moderators, this contest is about VFRS, where you ride them, how you ride them, how you fix them. Please click the forum rules link at the top for specifics.

Don't count us northern boys out just yet.

I think a black 6th gen VFR looks great in the basement. B)

Especially when you can get the boiler and the oil tank in the background. :P

So that's fake snow I've been shoveling? :rolleyes: If any of our neighbors to the "real" north win the contest, I offer to have the tires shipped here and I'll forward them to any place in Canada for the cost of UPS shipping.
#15
Sweet!

All I can do, now that most of my tinkering is finished, is stare at it, and take pics. A lot of pics. Thanx for the outlet, Slammer! Thought I was gonna pop, before I could, "show-off", my goodies.

There's a donation coming, next pay period. (Nothing worse than bouncing a donation). LOL!

I think he is asking about the rating system on the Gallery.
#19
I would assume 5 was best, as in 4 out of 5 stars etc.

Never had a reason to until you bait me in with a purpose. I guess I'll try rollong it out in the snow and snap a pic of a few flurries flying by. Still, Shipping to AK is out of the question.

Great contest idea, Slammer. I look forward to seeing all the butt kicking entries.
#22
got the bike last september, didn't have time to take nice pics yet!
#23
2 weeks left to submit photos into the gallery, I was looking at the top rated photos, where people had actually rated the photo, seems there are a lot of unrated photos cause there are some great photos in there that have not been rated by anyone. But the most viewed were amoung the oldest -Lol cant go by either for this contest. So the moderators will still chose 20 of thier favorites and then we hold an Election........Stole that line from ol "W".
#24
Contests are always fun...let the games begin! :beer: B)
#25
Please remember this is VFR discussion, photos of non VFR's are not eliglible!?! Non VFR's are not prohibited from the gallery as long as they are motorcycles, but not eligble to win the contest.

So, does that a mean a college girl, not appropriately dressed while sitting on a Harley, isn't going to get me a win?

#27
On a Harley? Thats like a cat stolling into a dog kennel full of starved dobermans.
