Methods B & C are prefered... Just make sure the image is not over 800 pixels in size so the Nomad page doesn't stretch wider than standard 15" monitor and require side scrolling to read/ view.

Carlos, give me a phone call and I will talk you through it after reading and trying the following:... If the image URL is long or has non-typical language/ symbols, it won't work.... using 'browse' to post just one image (under 50 kb) from your PC files.

The best way is to hot link the photos onto Nomad from your web site or photo hosting site (like photobucket)... You can put several photos in one post, and they don't need to be reduced to under 50 kb.

Use the
symbol (right above where you type a message on Nomad, except 'quick reply')... Insert the image URL (http://******/jpeg or gif, etc.) into the pop up you will see and the image will go into your text box... type above or below it, add more photos iff needed.

=====================================================

FOR EXAMPLE... Here are some photos of you at some of my Viva Baja parties you attended:

VIVA BAJA I (2000)



With Norm (BajaLinks) and Keith (Baja Ca Language School) on either side of you.





With Kacey Smith (Baja GPS Guide)


VIVA BAJA II (2001)



With Graham Mackintosh and Lorenzo de Baja




With Timothy Walker and BajaBoy (Zac)


VIVA BAJA III (2002)



With Sallysouth's daughter Maalaea




With Parnelli Jones warehouse manager Rene




With tongs... lol!


VIVA BAJA IV (2003)


With Tim Walker

Baja 1000 La Paz fly down in 2010


Captain Mike!

I love the idea of getting a group to fly down to La Paz for the Baja 1000 next year. I should be back from my Jet Ski circumnavigation around Baja by late October!

he we should talk. my buddies used to do Kino bay to PSFO on skies all the time. along midriff islas. about 60 miles.
and one of them did a group trip SF to CSL, had the rigs trucked back and flew their 210.....nice way to go.
so - maybe i can tag and do air support? selected stops with RWs. we can get Bruce to film it he does TV docs all the time and always looking for subjects of interest.
yes - baja mil to la paz - we'll plan it.

Amazing photo


I just took a look at Guadalupe Island Airport on Google Earth. It has a photo tagged to it of a plane wreck off the end of the runway. It looks like Amelia Earhart's plane! Twin verticals like an old Lockheed, Convair or Beech. That place is sure out in the middle of nowhere.

Crashed Plane at Guadalupe Island Airport


>>>>Sticker....that plane is still there...sitting in a ditch at the west end of the landing strip about 50 yards from the end of the runway. I asked Guadalupe (the guy who picked us up at the airport in his truck) about the wreck. He said it happened several years ago when a guy came in too hot and over-ran the strip. I don't think anyone got hurt, except possible a slight bruise on the pilot's ego!

You can walk around the wreck and check it out...it's pretty cool. The hard part is the 150 mile over-the-ocean flight to the island!!

>>>>Caprain Mike...lets keep in touch regarding the Jet Ski circumnavigation idea. If I do it I would be leaving LA Harbor in mid October 2010 and end the trip even further up the Colorado River becasue the Jet Ski has a more shallow draft that the panga!
