Man those are some great shots!

I saw Ed exploiting his new SLR camera, too. Looking forward to seeing those pics!

I haven't tried it since the crash, there may be an issue there. There's also a file size limit, I don't remember what it is. (I set it pretty big, as I recall) Try another upload with a small JPG file, let me know if you get an error.

As for Flickr, my wife has their "Pro" account. It's like $25/year, unlimited uploads. Seems like the way to go.

I tried it again and it failed. The file is 166K.

How does she link her photos? I tried it but it linked as it were signed in as me.

I think you have to make sure that the settings on the photo (or gallery?) are set to "public".

Nice shots, Ed.
Does Ron know Gerry did that in his car? Probably thinks it's just clogged drain holes...heh.

Now I know why my car wanted to go sit in a car wash for three hours and why it veers into the other lane when it sees guys like this :pimp: .

Greg,

That picture of Doug starting Mike's Cobra is probably the best "spirit of autocross" picture ever. That needs to be publicized.

Did either of you get any photos of my white VW GTI? I'm looking for a new avatar/profile picture. :)
