Should have started this months ago, but I've been taking pictures of the car's assembly since purchasing it from Wes in the Fall of 2006.

I will post some early pics for starters, such as this one when I purchased it. What a beauty! As shabby as she looks, this was Greg Hodder's impeccable '89 325i.
http://picasaweb.google.com/alfasteve/Pro3/photo#5023852314566058594 works, but that isn't how I want to post pics

I have to figure out why I cannot directly connect to the .jpgs I've placed in my google account. I want the image to show up, not a link.

should work, but it doesn't.

Any words of wisdom? I'm all ears.

Thank you,

Steve S.

Your code is right, but that website probably doesn't allow outside links. The trick is finding a server that will allow you to.

Steve,
Looks like Google does some funky things with the URL for images. When viewing your gallery on Google, right-click on an image, select properties, and look at the address of the image.
If you cut and paste that into an img tag here, it should work .... unless they disallow remote image referencing, which I've done at bmwpugetsound cause it was being abused.

Or 'copy image location' from the right click menu

this worked:
