As you may or may not know, I compile a Master Motorsports Schedule every year in Excel. At the moment, my 2010 schedule has almost 900 races from 66 different racing series (counting series like ALMS as four series and four races per weekend).

Anyway, I'd love to paste the week's action in the weekend thread that gets put up every week, but since it's in Excel, it always looks like crap. For example, check out this thread. Is there a better way to do this? Any suggestions would help.

If it'll fit take a screen shot of that week's action and maybe post a link to the full size image on Photobucket or another photo sharing site, otherwise I have no idea how you could format text in the forum itself.

Good idea, PenskeFan. I would save a separate copy of your spreadsheet as a webpage and then do as Dan says. Screen shot and photobucket. Just be sure you don't have a bunch of toolbars (like I do) hogging up your screen space.

Yeah, one of my pet peeves with RS (which I never mentioned) is the size of the pictures we can post. Most modern computer screens are above 500 pixel height and width :roll:

the spread sheet would need to be linked instead of embedded in the thread.

There are also free file hosting sites. The actual xls file would be even better.
