hey, not lazy, just technologically challenged:)
i didn't know how to post the pictures. i had trouble understanding the instructions by sirquack. So bare with me people.

No worries. I didn't mean "you lazy", just "us lazy". If your pictures are visible inline then more of us will look at them and comment.

Normally we just fix your post and sign it "Link Police" but I figured you would want to know what to do...

hope this work

oh god, is there anyway to erase the last 5 minutes of my life. no one should laugh.

okay, i have copied the url of the photo and pasted it on the message, why isn't the photo up.

I think you used a URL that pointed to your computer's hard disk. Unless you are running a web server on your PC that won't work (EDIT .. won't work even if you ARE running a web server... the URL should say "http..." not "file...". Look at the URL when you paste it in and make sure it points to Photobucket.

The very best thing to do is open a new browser window, paste in the URL, and make sure you see a picture... BEFORE you put the [ i m g ] stuff into a post here.

Not saying "don't screw up", just "this is how you test".

let's see:

you know the funny thing is you can see the picture you were trying to show us, but we cant see it.... d:/change.jpg....

for a picture type [ img ]url[ / img ] with out the spaces between the [ ]

Blackorp, what you need to do, once you've got your photo hosted at a website like photobucket.com is to copy the url for your photo, such as http://bestsmileys.com/flasher/1.gif between two image tags which can look like this [image] [/image], or this [img] [/img]. There should be no spaces anywhere in the tags or the url. Here is how it should look, but I have to leave some spaces so you can see the code. If I didn't leave the spaces, the code would do what it's supposed to do and what you'd see would be the photo.

[ img ]http://bestsmileys.com/flasher/1.gif[ /img ]. Remove the spaces in the tags, and you get:



If you look under your photo at photobucket, you'll see 3 little boxes each with a url in it. The third one has the url for that particular photo with image tags already attached. All you need do is copy that third url with tags, and paste it into your post, and viola! You get your photo.

This is getting better than the water cooler. lol. I hate to throw more confusion into this, but the experts can correct me if I'm wrong. When wiring your speakers the cable length on your center and mains should be the same length. And the cable length on your surrounds should be of equal length also.

To the best of my knowledge, it is not necessary that all speaker wire lengths be the same. Mine certainly aren't. They are just the right length to reach from the receiver to each speaker.
