    The easiest way is if you have a free Photobucket account, just copy and paste the [​IMG]

    Wicho if you click on the IMG link in photobucket it will autocopy. THen paste it in your post the pic will appear right in your post like Dustin did.

    The canopies you built look very nice as all the others have said.
