How can I add an image

There are a couple of ways

First: If the image is on your computer, use the Upload Attachments button that displays when you post, then navigate to the file to add it. If your photo won't add, the most common reason is that it is way too big. There are many free image resize sites to trim it down. 1000 pixels wide or tall is more than big enough.

Second: If you know the URL of the image, you can use the Upload from the URL button. This is not the preferred way as if the image ever expires or it deleted on the original site - it also disappears here.

Third: The easiest way to copy and image elsewhere and put here is copy and paste. Right click the Image, select Copy Image, and paste into your post. You can also paste a screen print you've just taken.

Do I have To Register to Post?


Yes, but it is so simple that a misfit can do it.

1. Simply click the register link at the Northeast Corner of the page
2. Supply a user name (your own works), email address and password
3. An email will be IMMEDIATELY sent to you. In it is a confirmation link. This is to reduce Spammers. Click the link and your done. YOU WILL MOST LIKELY FIND THIS EMAIL IN YOUR SPAM BOX FOR GMAIL AND OTHERS

If you are a NSS Racer and have an issue registering, get ahold of me and I'll make it happen

You may want to also want to White List nssracing.com to avoid your post notifications (if you selected that option) going to Spam Box

What Is "Race Team News"?

It is a feature I've not quite finish, but shortly it will be fully functional.

If your racing has a team name, or you've named your car, you'll be set up with the ability to have a team blog, with its own URL, where you can update your team's news. It you have a dog that comes to the track - you can have him report your team/car news in the first person. It's a feature coming soon - free to registered users. You can even set the privacy to control who has access to your team/car news and updates
