Create a profile at imgur, flickr, or any photo sharing site. Upload the photos, then they will provide a link to the photo. Copy that link and paste it into this forum like this:

[img]***https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47991117971_d4933c8cf2_b.jpg***[/img]

NOTE: I added the three asterisks before and after the link (which is Raul's photo above). Don't include the asterisks... just paste the link between the opening and closing brackets. I included them so the link doesn't work, allowing you to actually see it. If I hadn't, it would have posted the photo thus making this whole explanation pointless.

Hope that helps. When in doubt, click "quote" on someone else's photo and you'll see how it works.

This. Or, I use Postimages.org for quick photo uploads. No account required.

Nice!

So I clicked on the link, then where it says "share" it gives you a direct link. Copy and paste that (ends with .jpg) between the [img] and [/img] brackets and it shows the photos. Like such... Ladies and gentlemen, Fryguy's photos:

Here is one I got of the Thompson. Took a bad angle and turned out dark and hazy.

They should build a twin in that lot across the river from the Tropicano so it looks like the Tobin Center has bunny ears.

I know you are viewing from afar, but the next time you come down you have should walk the river where it has a HUGE impact.

I will the next time I'm in town (whenever that may be). I'm also looking forward to seeing how it affects the skyline as a whole. I'm a big fan of distance shots... e.g. - Raul's:

I believe this building has been topped out.

I think the core has been topped out but not the crown. So it will appear a little taller when completed.
