OK WE GOT ALOT OF NEW MEMBERS HERE....LETS SEE SOME MUGS

Sweet mug,(new name for motors???) but whos that crazy lookin guy standin next to you???

Here's LarryM (my father in law) and me just after I got the new engine running.. We're backing out of the driveway.... Ok, normally I am not making a face like I am trying to lay a big stinker on my passenger, but what the hell.....I'm no pretty boy anyway (I am about 50lbs lighter than in that picture though).



Here's a little better picture of me I guess....

HERE IS MY MUG ! .. CHEERS

Ok, so maybe this pic is a little off topic, but the ones with cars in them were either way too old or too blurry. Next year I should have some good ones with cars in them. Anyway this is me and a finny friend at Clear Lake, CA

Click on the "Post A Reply" button at the lower right of this page. Its next to the "NEW Thread" button Not the:
Post Reply
Your Reply:
box at the bottom of this page. Thats just for a quick reply message with no pics or HTML goodies.

On the "Reply Page" right below the message area you'll see "Attach File" click on the "Browse" button. That will bring up your HD where you select your pic. Then select SUBMIT REPLY.

Please, please keep your file size below 100K. and 600x400 or below in size. Helps us with slow Dial-up connections.

By the way, here's a shot of me and my '23 Tall T coupe.

Larry, I'd be pleased to oblige but I haven't a clue how to change the size or content of pictures. Sharon showed me how to send a pic, but we're both clueless as to how to change it. Also, there is no "post-a-reply" button on my screen. The one next to new thread is labeled "Closed".

Rich,
If ya put your cursor over the one next to new thread button that is labeled "Closed" it will actually say "Post A Reply", click on it then you'll see what I'm talking about. All my message pages say CLOSED on that button too. BRENT,musta been messing with something today. It should say "Post A Reply".

As for Pic sizes, what picture software do you have on your puter or what size pics is your digital camera able to shoot? The lowest/smallest wll be better for use on the web. Let me know and I'll walk ya through it. Maybe shoot me off an email and we can take care of it that way.

I use photoshop and keep my photos around 5 inches, that seems to work. Here's a drunkin night in Cancun.

ok, it worked last time, lets try again at 3 inches, i did'nt know 5 inches would be so big, but you know us guys, 5 inches looks huge to us.

Hey Tech,
I use a free progrem for changing the size of photos & it called irfanview.
http://www.irfanview.com

Click on the down load on left column-then it will have a link to tucows that hosts the program- click the tucows link & it will have the latest program 3.85 on the right side it will have Windows 95 all the way through windows 2003.
Just click on the windows that you are running & save to a file you can find later.
Then just install it.

Pull up irfanview & find your pic that you want to change size- when you do that double click on the pic file , it will pop up the pic,
then it will have several tabs up top - click on the IMAGE tab & in colunn 8 it will have Resize/resample, it will pop up another window & it will tell you the size of your pic, then you can click on the 640X480 ( good size for uploading) and click OK on the bottom it will resize that pic.,but you need to save that, so click on FILE tab up top and find SAVE AS, it will pop up another window that you can save it to the pic file BUt call it small PIC so you know its the smaller pic.
thats all there is to it.
It may sound complicated but try it , as I have been using it for 3 years.

I just loaded another pic on another thread and it's the pixil size that counts. I set it at 500 pixels at 3.5 inches and that came out about right, by the way thats what i imagined streets to look like. Just an oldtime rodder tinkering away sceaming up new ideas into the wee hours in the garage, wonder what inovations would be next on the agenda.

HEY!!! Who put that Geezer's head on me???????

OH, that was the wrong picture above....

Dan, the first pic got me rolling. Good one. I just put a little more hair on my head.

Streets, you look right at home on that bike...
