Do a search on LED flasher. Digiman did a GREAT DIY.

Also, search "front turn signals" I did that DYI recently.

Did you uploaded the photos to the gallery or just a thread? Are you using Firefox or IE?

Some webhosts such as Yahoo or MSN Photos use "changing links" to pics, and will not show the pic after a certain change in time for security and privacy reasons.

Most people post on our ClubLexus Galleries, which the links to pics do not change.

Have you tried our CL Galleries?

Or make a photobucket account.. load images there. That works out great too, and they do the IMG tag for you.

Thanks Dj_Amtrax for the reply. I wish Lexus would have LED'd all the rear lights. But then again, we would be bored not being able to Mod.

Hey warrionex thanks for checking in.

I am uploading the photo's (well trying anyway) to the CL gallery and I am using both Firefox and IE with the same blank page results. Any ideas ?

Maybe you aren't getting the entire file path in your IMG tags?

Well an image tag looks like this

[.img.]http://www.yourimage.com/1234.jpg[./img.] Minus the periods I have in there.

If the path is wrong you'll get a little x like below.


Anyway, if you aren't getting the complete path/address to the picture then its not going to show your picture. I don't know if thats really your problem, but if you pulled the picture from another site as some others people have stated it might have been moved, and some sites don't let you hot link, and in some cases you may not be able to show the picture because the site has exceeded a bandwith quota.

Lets say if you hotlink a picture you right click on the picture you want and hit properties. A box should pop up and then you see the line that says "Address[URL]" (btw I'm basing this off of IE 6) if you put your curser at the beginning of the image address and drag it down it should highlight the entire path/address of the picture, this may require your to drag to the right or left to highlight the entire address. If you are missing anything out of the address you won't be able to see the picture once you've posted it. Probably be a good idea to right click the highlighted address and copy it. Then past it between [img] and [/img] brackets.

And if you get the complete address and it still doesn't show up then there is probably an issue with the site.

And if that doesn't help ya.. well maybe someone who had issues posting pictures before will be enlightened. Hehe.

Sure!

Its relatively simple process and Photbucket makes it super easy.
In my picture below thats what my photobucket looks like. If you mouse over the IMG Code letters your pointer should turn into a hand. Just click that area and the IMG tag has been copied. Then in your post, right click and hit paste! That easy.
