Seems like we can never get any good shots campared to others but heres two for this last weekend. Not sure how to make them larger chris if ya can help me that be great im not 100% on the sizeing of the pics yet.If need be i can send ya some the originals at least i think i can. Thanks Aaron
Aaron, the best way to get full size pics is to load the pic up first in the gallery. Then you can link to the full size version of it in your post. The other way to do it (that seems to be the popular way) is to host the full size version of your pic offsite and then link to it. I'd really like to get our supporting members loading their pics up in the gallery as I think it would make a really neat feature here.

As far as your two specific pics go, my guess is that the originals that you attached to your post are actually fairly small. The best size for pics is 640 Pixels wide by whatever height they work out to be. So for me, normally when I resize my pics for the board, I just resize the width to 640 and let the length stay the same ratio to the width that it was.

If you need additional help, let me know. :)
 
Congratulations GChildre and OnTheHammer!

Your boats are heading to the official boat of the month vote. :)
 
I nominate this 16ft Pulsare. We never seem to see the little boats on here. The owner is a new guy on here. Tony. I'm not sure of his screen name.
