You just used 'insert link' instead of 'insert image'. The link you used is for the album and not the specific photo.
First choose the picture then you would do this:

(Copy the IMG Code then click 'insert image' (second button after 'smiley's)and paste it in.)

For the first santa pic it's this.

Hit reply and you will see what the code should look like.

I think I'd have put more "workshop" tools in there, like Pillar drill, lathe etc. I can't believe there's a forum for Garages!

I cleaned it up special for you lot.

Then you might remember this happened at the end of '09:

Well that one got bulldozed and finally here's the new setup (It's only tidy cause we only moved in 3 months ago):

Too much time spent making the house livable lately, not enough riding.
