Thank you very much - it works fine now!

I just couldn't wait to become active on this absolutely fantastic forum.
Being the recent proud owner of 2 MUTTs, a restored A2 and a yet to be restored but running A1 (or maybe even plain 151), I am hoping to share experiences andknowledge through this channel.

Now I need to find out how to post some pictures from the iPad...

Cheers,

Pascal

The easiest is to set up a free photo hosting site like photobucket.com which is popular.
Open a free account there.
Put the photos you want to post on your desktop, and if you number them together {111.jp, 112 jpg etc.} you can upload all of them at once.
Then do the upload, save them and copy the entire IMG code for each photo which is what you want to post in the forum - it will look like this
[ img] http ://i%20274. photo.com/albums/ jj259/alasandmdriverknowtheirchopperst/ DSC99869. jpg [/img]
Then paste this link into your post.

IT MUST HAVE THE brackets on each end.

If you go with photobucket you can post photos this way:


-Hover your mouse cursor over the desired image.
-Left click on “IMG code” (you’ll see “copied” display in the small box to the right)
-Go back to your post and press Ctrl+V wherever you want the image to appear. You don’t have to click on the built in IMG function of this site.


If you have more than one picture you want to post at a time, use this method:

-Hover your mouse cursor over the desired images and put a check in the check box of all the images you want to post in the order you want them to appear.
-Scroll to the bottom of the page and select the blue “Choose Action” hyperlink.
-Then select “Generate link codes for selected”. A new window will pop up.
-On the new window look for the section under “IMG for bulletin boards & forums”
-In the box labeled “Full size” highlight all the text and right click Copy or hit Ctrl+C
-Go back to your post and paste where ever you want the images to appear.

worth the effort, very nice A2. Thanks for sharing.
But isn't the tire inflation supposed to be 20 and not 25?

Click on the photo that you want to resize in photobucket.

On the next page you'll see a row of tools at the top of the image.

Nice MUTT by the way!

Click on resize and it will take you to a new page with the resized image.

You can then use this new image as normal.
