ANYONE KNOW WHY MY PHOTOS ARENT WORKING? IM NO GOOD AT THIS. THANKS

Hi all, i bought this bike about 14 months ago for 350 quid with full years mot and tax on it, she was healthy but in wild need of some paint and a tidy up. So far i have had a new clutch,new throttle cable,carbon reeds,tyga silencer,rear shock,fuel cap,front tire,brakes,cone filter and rejetted carb. I didnt pay much for the bike and spend all my money on cars so slowly getting there with her on a bit of a budget. She started life as blue,have no original pics though and now she looks as follows.

only original photo i have

I painted the frame myself even after people not recommending it, but it looks really well and has stayed intact and was a hell of alot less bother and cheaper than powder coating(cost about 10 quid)

And thats her up to date, my next plans are a solo seat cowl (if i can find one) different footpegs, aftermarket expansion chamber and of course getting the wheels powder coated white.
Few niggly wiring issues with her at the mo that im going to post in the tech forum. What you all think? I will have her finished for spring
