    I have a text template. I hand write the review, and when it comes to a pic, I type "prelight, ash, 1st, 2nd etc."

    When I upload each "stage" to photobucket (or your imagehost of choice" I then go and copy each stage as "imbed image" and paste it over the "prelight, ash, 1st etc"

    Conversly, I don't even know how to do the thumbnail thing that you did, and others do with pictures.

    Roger great review, especially for a 1st one. Love seeing the ashtray you made in use and that you included yourself in the review pics. And who knew Wierd Al could be good cigar smoking music...lol...

    To add to what badwhale said, I crop and resize my photos to 800x600 before uploading them to photobucket. I feel that is a good size for review photos. Most operating systems have basic photo editing software built-in to them that can resize photos.

    I also use the macro setting on my camera to try to get some of the finer details of the cigar. It really is a nice feature to have.



    EDIT: I almost forgot to mention that I really enjoyed your review. Keep up the good work!

    You're a better man than me, Roger.

    My review of the CR-SCR:

    I like it! It tasted and smoked very nice. I'd buy it again!

    ...sorry - no pictures...

    Thanks everyone. I will have to try the photo bucket thing and see if I can make that work for me. I originally placed it all in adobe illustrator and then made the file a jpeg. That's how I attached everything. Roger.

    Like this?



    If so, use the [IMG] tag around the URL of the image that you have attached.

    For example, when you look under "Manage Attachments" in your original post and click on the filename, you'll see that the image is located at: http://www.cigarsmokers.com/attachme...2&d=1249615309

    Apply the [IMG] tag and you get: ( {} brackets used instead of [] )

    {img}http://www.cigarsmokers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1102&d=1249615309{/img}

    which puts the pic in the post, as above.

    Wow Craig! That was awesome. That would be an acceptable way to do it too. Either way it takes a little time, effort and patience to get r done! But thanks for your tip on that.
