My first crack at posting a photo. Can I store more than one in my profile?

Hey Bootlegger,
Nice pic. We all like pics.
I see a bike covered up - what's under the canvas? I'm hiding a 1990 Harley Electra Glide Ultra Classic.
I struggled with the image uploading, too. I read that picture sticky 4 or 5 times.... I could only get one picture onto my profile, and wanted to put more in my post.
I ended up dumping the pics onto photobucket.com, then viewing the pics there one at a time, right clicking on the pic, picking Properties, and copying the URL address. I'd go back to my post, select <img>, and paste my URL address in the middle of the img/img. Presto, magic - there they were when I clicked on Preview Post.
The other thing that slowed me down was Check Spelling. I assumed when I made my changes, and submitted the post, the changes were kept. But I wasn't clicking on Save Changes. Gotta read that fine print.
Hope this helps. Post more pics!
Happy burning.

I was surprised at how much I liked seeing other's wood pics, its a window into someone else doing the same thing I'm doing, sharing the labor in a way.
The bike is a Hyosung GV250 I bought when gas hit $4.00/gallon. I'm 43 and didn't have any riding experience so I wanted something without too much HP, but big enough for my 6-2 frame. This bike is the size of a 650 and has pretty good power, it will hit 90 on the interstate. I told my wife I'm buying a Harley for my 50th birthday as my "midlife crisis".
Ok, I put the pics on flickr, I'll try and put them in the next post.
First picture is my "round" pile.
Second picture is my "split" pile.
Third picture is my equipment, neighbor's Huskee trailer and splitter (I maintain and store for him), Craftsman tractor, and in the background my '93 Dodge Dakota wood hauler.
Here's a sample of my wood supply from the surrounding forest. An even mix of oak (white, red, black), hickory (mockernut, shagbark), poplar and maple (sugar, red?). It's 20-30% moisture on the meter when I'm splitting it.
Finally, another shot of the driveway/wood processing area.
I have a pile of logs down in the meadow that will replace the round pile after I finish splitting it.

Thanks folks. This is my third winter burning and its been a steep learning curve, but I never really got organized like this until I found this website. If this winter is as cold as everyone's predicting the help came just in time.

Now I need to get ahead. Some of the logs in my meadow have been down two years. They are up off the ground but exposed. It's good white, red and black oak that I fantasized about turning into lumber but haven't had the cash yet. I must get it bucked and up to the round pile before too long.quads said:
