I'm trying to understand why so many Rides have no photo. Anyone have any ideas?

Maybe they don't know that's where IHROTM is pulled from. Or maybe they do and they don't want to see their car in the magazine.

I like the newly revamped Readers Rides, by the way. (The tabs and the what not)

I was wondering if anyone noticed. You're update photos not go into your slideshow, too.

It seems like a new trend. If you go back a few pages in any category they almost all have pictures.

Are they disappearing or are new members just not adding them?

in my case it's that I'm still a totally illiterate computer user... I barely can check my e-mail ... I have successfully downloaded photos to I-photo but doing anything beyond that has so far eluded me

But basically, you've figured out the smilies, I see. Above the smilies there is a bar of icons, the one to the left of the, ackhem, 'Help' icon (that will explain all of this) at the far right is a camera, click on it, insert the photo's URL and click ok.

Here's an example: The picture I want to post has this as its URL:http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/media/img/readerrides/truck_t352.jpg

So I click the camera icon, insert http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/media/img/readerrides/truck_t352.jpg in the box, then click 'OK' and I get:

Yes. You can add up to five for your ride, and additional photos with each update. Just click edit. You'll see the fields.
