Hmm I don't think that you are using the correct method for posting photos ?

Hi PJL,

I've gone to Avcom's tutorial to find out how to post photos on the forum. I used the [img] command with the photo's IP address, as i understood the instructions. If there's another or more correct way I'll gladly comply.

Regards.
