-open a free account on photobucket.com
-upload you pics there by clicking on the browse buttons and locating the pics in your appropriate folders.
-under each of your pics on your photo bucket account there is a row that is labeled "url link"...click on that and it should auto copy to your notepad (if not then highlight the url and do an edit / copy)
-come back to Derby Trail and open a window to make a post
-in the second menu bar at the top of the post box there is a small yellow square with mountains and a sun in it....click on it and a second box opens up where you can do an edit / paste to put the pic url in the box.


hope this helps

Just the light. It was really dark this morning so we had the flash on. The little bumb over her eye is from shipping. Just rubbed hair and she should be super beautiful again soon!

That is the light, and the normal tapetal reflection from the back of a horses' eye

I don't remember having to resize pics for photobucket...I know you do if you want to post directly from you computer to Derby Trail but i don't think you do if you upload to photobucket and then paste into your post here using the "img" box

Stretch/ Skew

and change it from 100% to 50%. save. and that should bring them don to a manageable size

wow Sumwon looks very relaxed yet attentive and every bit of that 16.2 hands !! is it just an optical illusion or is it possible she's grown UP as well as round lol??? sure looks every bit the racehorse - very nice, thank you and keep em coming, never tire of lookin at her...

[Riot]

I notice Cherie does have the "brand-new-used" white saddlecloth on her ... and the "full-control just-in-case" bit , although she (Sum, not Cherie) looks a bit sleepy still from her ship. I hope, towards the end of the meet, prior to her layoff, Cherie is able to hack her about some of the trails up there.

Expecting lots of great pictures from the east coast crew, and tons of daily updates including terribly insignificant details regarding our girl!

[Danzig]

she looks good.

i have a request...could someone PLEASE take a pic of her on the track with that gorgeous grandstand in the background???

from PolyHorse blog:
Top Royelle worked nicely yesterday at Churchill and will travel to Saratoga, leaving Sunday afternoon and arriving Monday morning. We will be stabled in the Annex across from the backside of the Oklahoma track off of 5th avenue.

Saw Top Royelle as well as Sumwon after the races today. No peppermints for either today but TR will get an apple tomorrow and Sumwon will get a peppermint. Both are scheduled for a w/o tomorrow morning. It's amazing to me how well behaved and loving Sumwon has become.

TR is a bit shy but a sweetheart and spent most of her time trying to nibble through the stall to get at the colt next to her.

I haven't heard anything about a work
Have you?

[Payson Dave]

Neither TR or SWLY are listed on equibase as having worked today.

Chuck had told me ( I thought) earlier this week that TR was working tomorrow. Dell may have been under the influence at the time of writing..

BUI..Blogging U.I

He possibly meant back to galloping, rather than trotting?

[dellinger63]

Neither was a timed work but both horses look great. Zito's horses look like monsters as several including Nobiz were on the OK track. And Bob we start drinking early but not at 7am lol. Sorry about Ben......

OK Steve...Printing my retraction!

Thnx for the updates...Felt bad for Ben..loaded first and then just sat in the gate forever, broke so-so and cut his leg I guess. Looked like he was rolling, but never got there...
"Met" him Wed night...you're right...great personality and we had a lot of fun with him...Now if he could just break that maiden...
