Are you getting some kind of error message? If you are trying to use xat.com Image Optimizer, that is a Windows program and won't work on a Mac. There are hints in the BadWeb help section as well as the top of the Cool Buell Pics page. Just follow the instructions I use a Mac, OS 10.3.9, Safari; no problems here. |

Load the pic's in a image hosting website like Photobucket, copy the IMG code and paste into message may work. (Message edited by bake on May 06, 2007) |

If you have photoshop on your Mac. Under file use "save for web". Mac is the Buell of computers. They get no respect but are awesome machines in the right hands. |

bake, when people post like that, i can not see the pics, i only see a little white spot, the size of a period, and it can't be "clicked" either....frustrating to say the least, especially in the classifieds!!! |

Hey Bake! Trade ya a sweet turbo'd RS for that '48 Chief! Damn - that's one beautiful bike! You'll have to swap the apes for the stock bars though, or the deal's off. I have a Mac and I usually use the email button in Imac to size the photo for posting. Click on the photo to highlite it, click 'email' and convert the image to "small" (or medium, depending on orig photo size) Then I highlite the photo as it appears on the page for the email, get it to pull up in the 'preview' feature and 'save as' to desktop. Delete the email. You've now got a photo that will post direct to the badweb from your desktop. I'm sure there are MUCH BETTER and faster ways! AL |

Sleez... do you have some ill conceived and overly aggressive "security" software running on your machine? It might be blocking the image because the page comes from one domain, but the pictures come from another. You would have that problem on a LOT of sites though. |

outdated? lol maybe yours is, but microsoft has even said that vista was modeled after Mac OS X, and its only been... 7 years late? An article on the subject http://lifehacker.com/software/top/windows-vista-b eta-a-lot-like-mac-os-x-179909.php |

I find it funny that people claim MS stole ideas for Vista from OSX yet they never mention how alot of the features that have been getting added too OSX over the years came from Windows, mainly Vista. We get funky window animations, you get "spotlight" (knockoff of search). |
