    I would like to share some pics of my frame with you guys but can't seem to figure out how to attach them, is there a easy way for computer illiterate like myself to do this, I can't seem to attach them to post or could somebody post them for me? Thanks bill

    Bill, go ahead and start a reply to post. Before you hit "Submit", scroll down towards the bottom of the page, and click on the button that says "manage attachments". That will open another window, where you can click the Browse button in order to find the pic on your computer hard drive that you want to show in your post. Double click the pic file, or click it once then click on Open. Then click the Upload button, after it's loaded your pic, click the "close this window" button. Now you should be ready to submit your post.

    i do all that and get to the end and it tells me my pictures are to large. what do i do to make them smaller? when i download the pictures from my camera, imake them as small as it will allow. so i wind up sending them to adam and he sizes them for me. is this some special program that you can buy to size pictures?

    I use Paintshop Pro myself, but it's far from cheap or free. However, there are a few free photo editing programs that can be downloaded on the web. I used to use lview pro, which can be found at www.lviewpro.com Some have also said they use the MS Paint program found in Windows. I haven't tried that myself, but it is probably pretty simple. A good size for posting on the board is about 600 x 400 pixels. I wouldn't go any larger, or users have to scroll sideways to see the whole pic.

    Isaac, that's a great shot of that Baaaaaddddd 350 Buick! It comes in at 776 x 416 pixels, a bit wide for viewing, I need to scroll a bit to see the whole pic, but not too much.
