    In your avatar, you appear to have a partridge (left) and a buff (right). Do you have pics of their bodies?

    Splash and partridge look very different.

    Do you have the pics hosted on a site like photobucket?

    If using photobucket, click on the "direct link" text under the desired pic (this will automatically copy the link).

    Then, just above the smilies when typing a post, you'll see an "Img" button, click it and you will see this:

    Then all you have to do is paste your link:

    And you're done! [​IMG]
