Like Cactus,I'm trying to learn how to post picures.Let's see what happens.Nothing. I guess I am living proof of the old adage about old dogs and new tricks.I tried both of the recommended methods and after a few minutes I get a message box saying the server has severed the connection.I think I'll sleep on it and try again tomorrow.

Try reducing the size of your pictures. 120 dpi or less makes a much smaller picture to load up. Also the physical size affect it. 2-3 inch pictures are pretty big in a forum slot. You can use the "resample" mode in most drawing programs. Chuck

I'm still trying to get my pictures to go.I can't figure out how to reduce the size of them.Nowhere in the Kodak or HP Instantshare programs can I find a way to reduce them.With the camera connected to USB port,there is a box that says picture size options are not available.Is that just with this type of camera.Kodak CX7530.This is worse than figuring out how to rebuild a Rochester Quadrajet.

I use a program called photorazor make my pictures smaller. It's freeware - you don't have to pay for it. Google photorazor and it should come up.

As in the old Laurel and Hardy comics, " Ollie, I think you've got it". Beautiful car, thanks for the pictures.

I finally got the pictures the way I wanted them. Like you,I finally got the car that I would have sold my soul for in 1960 when I was a high school senior in a very small Illinois farm town.Six years ago this was a rusted out hulk from a 34 year pasture retirement.No drivetrain,front clip or trunk lid.It is now a 20 footer.Looks good from 20 feet away.

If you remember the majority of the cars we drooled over in the late 50's and 60's were "works in progress". A few of the kids from that other side of town had daddy built/bought late model customs. You know the guy with the tuck and roll 59 scrub convertable IN 1959! They were usually kind of goofballs. Based on that analogy, beautiful car AND its on the road! Let them eat scrub! Chuck in NH
