You can't upload them here, you have to find hosting...you're Internet Service provider may have given you webspace, but here are some free ones...

www.uploadit.org
www.imagestation.com
www.imageshack.com

Then just follow the intructions for pasting an image in your response.

Thanks for all tips about webhosting of pictures.
Here's my desktop. Perhaps the car is too old for some of you, but I saw it at a racetrack last summer.

I'm not a photographer and I couldn't find the owner and tell him do drive his car to a better spot to take pictures of it. I kinda don't like the background...

I don't alter my pictures electronically. It's a bit like faking to know what I'm doing behind the camera.

I have some SL55 pictures that I took in Monaco the other year. Perhaps I should use them instead...

I couldn't imagine you'd be interested...
I'll see if I can find them during the weekend. Today I'll be going to a motor show. A friend of mine is showing his Ultima GTR for the first time.

The pictures aren't as good as I remembered them. I'll only post this one since the other one only showes the rear ends of the cars.
