Ray, you DID have a great trip.  Sorry missed you in East Tennessee but as we talked, probably crossed paths somewhere along your route. 
As for pictures, I've found that if you can get them around 1.0 MB in size for each post, they post faster and with little issues.  The larger the file, the longer it takes to post and there is a limit of 2200KB/picture if you post for a pic on a post.
Some of our group use other ways to place mulitiple pics in one posting and dOOd, Jock or others can direct you the right way.  I ain't that tech savvy to help you there.

Look forward to some pics when you get a chance.  Bet you have lots to share with a trip like that.... :2vrolijk_21:

Has 1150 pics and needs guidance on how to post them.  Maybe you can help him out JC with the best methods for posting a large number of pics.

Sounds like an AWESOME trip!

My suggestion would be to post the pics to an album on a real photo-sharing site, and just post a link to that album here.
