The Official RANDOM photo thread!
I liked the old Mercury shot. Some years back I was in Flagstaff and cruised along the old cement highway, with snowy mountains and pine forests in view, pretending I was in all those photos and movies from the 1950s. Then I hopped on the Interstate to head quickly back into town.

More of the Mercury........

It was fun to find these old photographs of cars my family owned.
Great old pictures and, best of all, the quality is still there. Being a skier who started in the 50s, I love the one with the skis. My, how everything has changed but I would never go back to the old.
Thanks for posting.

Just got our modem back-it has been like Little House on the Prairie here while we waited day after day for the cable company to get their act together.
Catching up on all the great pictures. We have some talented photographers here.
Keep them coming.

I screeched to a stop, threw into reverse to park off the freeway. Then I limbo danced through a barbed wire fence, slipped down a steep jeep trail to this. Anyone know what that wet stuff in the wash is?

My father told me stories about something like that, but I've never been sure if he was telling the truth or not.
I'm having trouble downloading a picture so it shows up, now it's just URL!

Great photos!!!!
Just use the little 'picture window' tool on the forum's post window, and paste the Flickr URL into it. EZ-PZ.
Those are some awesome old slides.
Here's a couple from a recent shoot I did:

edit: I tried re-posting the image codes and I still get an error on the NAM side
I've never had issues posting Flickr images before so maybe this is something new? Did they switch to html code instead of BBCode?

Last edited by xstartxtodayx; Mar 27, 2013 at 05:19 PM. Reason: bbcode not working properly on nam site, tried again
I see that method works but it violates Flickr's terms of service and also doesn't direct viewers back to my personal page if they wish to go there which the proper BBCode always did. I know those things seem minor and silly but for something that has worked that way for years on every forum, including this one until now, it's a little frustrating.
Just saw this response, right above my post having the same issues

But if this issue does not get resolved, you won't see me around here anymore. Is there a new program that everyone has to download in order to post the pictures? Is it an issue with just Flickr?
