Newbies - Let's See Some Pics!

I got him day before yesterday. I call him Sport. I rescued him from a boring used car lot and will give him a good home.

Could somebody tell me how you post larger photos in the post, rather than thumbnails linking to the larger photo? Some posts have larger easy to see photos in them. What's the HTML code for that? As someone on this thread advised, I used the paperclip attachment button and uploaded the photo, and what i got was a little thumbnail. How do i put the full sized photo in the post?

Just bought my first Prius. A used silvergreen metallic -06 with the Swedish "Business"-package, plus engine block heater. Been on the roads for 21000 miles (35000km).

The dealer is installing parking sensors, putting on winter tires and servicing it, so i won't get my hands on the car for another week.

Hi... nice photos! When they are clicked on, they open up full sized.
To post a full photo inline, you'll need to have the photo uploaded to a site, such as flickr or google photos, and then click the photo insert icon (the yellow box with the mountain/moon in it), and put in the URL for the photo.
If you use flickr, for example, be sure to select the small or medium sized photo, so as to not have a giant photo in the thread!

Have fun!

Thanks Rae
last night i was trying to put the URL in from Flickr by typing [img][/img] but it didn't work, prolly cause i used lower case. I didn't see the image insert thing on the reply form. duh. thanks for shedding the light. i like the way the photos come up linked to the thumbnails, they look great with the black background and it's kind of dramatic, like, there should be some kind of background music.

I wanted to put him right in my post though, that has a drama of its own.

by the way, that's a SWEET white Prius on your flickr page. Great photos!

Here's....(fanfare)....Sport the car:

These photos are from the Craigs List ad where i first saw him.

In the year that I've had Spectra, I think I've only seen one lonely Prius in a boring used car lot. Every time I pass it, I look for it. It's been there about 2 months.

(With gas rising again [Gracias, Hamas!] it may be adopted)

I'm glad you've rescued yours! Welcome to the tribe!

Hello everyone!

Here's a pic of my 2008 just after a grueling 760 mile trip from Detroit to N. Arkansas in snowy weather without a washing for the photo. It had around 10,000 miles on it at the time. Picture taken on 1/30/09 at 11:42 CST, after the huge ice storm hit N. Arkansas on the afternoon of the 27th.
