Taking and sharing the photos - no worries. My only regret is my new Fujifilm camera hadn't arrived in time for my trip to Chongqing (the camera was a replacement for a Fuji Finepix I dropped on a recent trip to TaoHua Dao (island) while taking photos while standing by my bike on the day. I had to make do with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3's camera.
I appreciate being able to upload and share photos easily. It is one of the aspects I like about MCM compared to some of the other dozen+ MC forums I'm a member of - that being the ability to upload photos directly.
I'm not a big fan of having to host photos elsewhere and then link them in, despite me having a (free) photo hosting account. The reason is, as photos are uploaded onto the free photo hosting site, links to previously shared photos drop out and become invalid. It's the reason I don't share many photos on the other forums that require photos to be hosted elsewhere.
If you'd prefer ChinaV, I can delete some photos -if that might make it easier?
Otherwise, maybe it is worth MCM considering a "donate" button/link such as can be found on a couple of other MC forums et al. websites to help with 'costs'?
Footnote: if any MCM member wants to donate towards the cost of my plane ticket (1200), airport parking (200) etc. then I have a Paypal account - LOL

I'm not sure I understand why your photo hosting site would be dropping previous pics, I think there was a thread many moons ago about good photo hosting options.
I'm not suggesting you remove anything, I just wanted to point out the benefits of offsite photo hosting. I was using the internet on a 9600 baud modem 20+ years ago, so I look at bandwidth in a very different way than most people. I know many forums have removed direct photo uploading because of the bandwidth issue. The last photo spread I did on the CIMA show was in 2010 and it garnered 33,000 views. I published 170 photos @ roughly 200kb each X 33,000 views = 1.12 terabytes of bandwidth. I'm sure we never would have gotten a fraction of that without all the biker babe pics . It's not my forum, so I can't really comment on whether or not it has a financial impact on the owner. I've seen a lot of good posts with photos on MCM, and it always bums me out to see them at such a crappy resolution after the upload process butchers them with compression and resizing.
Thanks again for making the trip and taking the time to share.
Cheers!

The Shineray SRM's come from a investment they made into the rebirth of the SWM brand in Italy using the old Husqvarna factory and rights to remake the TE250,510 and 610 bikes with some small styling changes I hope Shineray will sell them as when Husqvarna was owned my Cagiva they made a running concept of a Mito 125 with a 510 engine for 45bhp at 120~kgs so would of been an awesome little twisties bikes.
