    Okay well some of you are wondering how to post pictures. A real easy way to do this is go to www.tinypic.com.
    1. Save your picture under picture file.
    2. When You go to the website on the main page you will be able to click on :Browse..:
    3. This should bring up your desktop. Go to user then to picture and find the picture you want to post.
    4. Click on the Picture and click Open. After this it should bring you back to the website.
    5. On the File type make sure you have picture of course selected. Then you need to resize the picture. Click on the resize arrow and you want to select "Message Board" (640 by 480).
    6. Click "Upload Now" On the next screen you want to copy "IMG code for forums & Message Board"
    7. When you make a topic You right click the paste That code. And their you go theirs the picture!

    I hope this helped some of you out!:). It Sounds long But IMHO its alot easier then PhotoBucket. Cheers!

    Tatted, that picture makes your tank look like a giant glowing-eyed reef-eating monster.

    Tank looks spectacular, though
