    What in detail do you mean by #3?
    I hit the manage attachments then copy the "direct link" from photobucket. Then go to "manage Attachements" and paste that in the "Upload File from a URL" and hit "upload" then Post away...

    What am I missing?

    I scan at 300 dpi and resize the width to 1600 pixels, host the image on Photobucket or some other site (never use the manage attachments on CT, because it resizes things to a thumbnail), copy the img url from the Photobucket in the body of the post. Just make sure you use the bracketed [ ] img code, which Photobucket provides you with:

    bracket img bracket url bracket / img bracket

    I tried that ing thing to the regular typing box and it's a little better again...
    lol
    12 more tires and I might get it. But at least when I do I should be able to repeat it just fine!

    Yes, that is the only way to type out the code so you can see it... So if you have a Photobucket account, open the little code box for each image you want to post, look for the code for FORUMS, which looks like [ letter i letter m letter g ] then you see the url followed by [ back slash / letter i letter m letter g ]. Post that code directly in your post and the image will appear here without being compressed by CT.

    now that you know how to post the code you just need to scan at 300 dpi and resize the file to 1600 pixels wide, upload that file, and paste the code here... so you can get BIG pics in the thread body. :thumb:

    I always use 1200 or 1600 pixels wide, you might be able to get double those figures, but it will be so wide that most people will have to horizontally scroll to see the whole image unless they choose to right click and 'view image' which will resize the image to fit in their browsers window.

    You uploads are looking great now!

    The uploads do look much better, indeed.

    Not perfect but improved and they are gonna still improve more :D

    But does anyone know anything about those notes?

    The 10 Peso note has the word "AMORTIZADO" punched on it. That means 'Paid in Full', or 'Redeemed', or 'Depreciated'

    That's what I have so far...

    So those holes are like a cancelling. Cool.
