Use photobucket or something similar.
Then post a link to it.

[usranger74]

I am downloading them to Photobucket as I type this. Will post a link soon.

[trip]

I'll be creating a Photobucket account tonight for everyone's pics. I'll post login info here tonight.

Bill, please hold on uploading your pics until I can get things set this evening, that way we can all upload to the same place.

Thanks,
Trip

Actually Bill, you are uploading them to Photobucket. If you are sending data to a remote system, it's an upload. If you were receiving data from a remote system, it's a download.

20 years in IT and I actually have something to show for it! :tup:

Trip,
Can you set up a photobucket account for each regional rally and all we have to do is go to our perticular region to upload the pictures we have?
Thanks

[trip]

Rasta.... yep, that's what I plan on doing. I'll let you guys know once I have everything setup.

Didn't upload all of my pictures to Photobucket yet but I did squeeze these in. Noticed three insect bites on my right thigh Saturday afternoon. Significant itching but no real pain. On the way home Sunday afternoon, I felt a small lump and found the lesion and blister in the first picture. The blister popped but reformed in less than 5 minutes. The second picture was today after my doctor diagnosed them as Brown Recluse spider bites. He gave me a stout shot of cordisone and put me on 2,000 mg/day of antibiotics to prevent necrosis of the flesh (rot). Will have to watch it for the next few days for any change in size or color. I had put a pair of blue jeans over the top of my curtan rod to block the light from shining in our room at bedtime. It reflected off of the white ceiling and lit the entire room up. I left the blue jeans up there for 3 days and nights until I didn't have another clean pair in my bag for the Saturday morning ride. I slid into them and we are assuming that the spider was in the pants. I never felt a bite which is common to Brown Recluse bites. I've had enough of these freak events this year. The pictures are of the worst bite. The other two have not formed a blister as of yet. Other than this rotten luck, the rally was a great one. First class Dave, Crystal, Jim, and Bea.

I have setup a Photobucket account for the VBA complete with an album for each regional rally.

The main login so you can upload pics is:

Just be sure and upload your pics in whatever region you're in.

Anyone can go to the VBA account and look at the pics by going to:
photobucket.com/albums/vulcanbaggerassociation (http://www.photobucket.com/albums/vulcanbaggerassociation)

Here are the url's for the various regions:
Southcentral: photobucket.com/vba-sc
Northcentral: photobucket.com/vba-nc
Southwest: photobucket.com/vba-sw
Northwest: photobucket.com/vba-nw
Southeast: photobucket.com/vba-se

Mitch been a hell of a year.First with the arm and now this .Heal quickly my friend.

[AlabamaNomadRider]

I will be checking the links for pictures. Always enjoy seeing rally pictures.

[trip]

Hope it turns out OK, Mitch. Sorry to hear this. Heal quickly and don't look back.

[BudMan]

Damn the bad luck Mitch. Hope you heal up fast.
Those spiders are common around here.
Usually you will only find them in garages, sheds etc.

[oldbikers]

Mitch we have them all over Mississippi and all I can tell you is they are bad to the bone Please stay in close contact with your doctor as the bites will rot out a very large hole.

[usranger74]

Sorry to hear that Mitch. Bad luck.

[Cajunrider]

Bites are already improving. The early steroids and antibiotics appear to be working well. Thanks for all of the well wishes.

[ndbigfish]

Glad your on the mend Mitch. Additional things for the travel kit: coffee pot, bath towels, bug bombs....

[chainsaw]

That sucks. Hope all you bad luck stops now. Get well soon my friend.

[Cajunrider]

Steroids and antibiotics did the job. The ulcer on the worst bite has dried up and it looks like another stroke of bad luck is history. With the way my luck runs, who in his right mind would be riding a motorcycle? Thanks for the well wishes.
