hello!

go to www.photbucket.com, you will need to sign up. once you are registered, then it will ask you to upload photos. follow the links to up load them all from your pc

once this is done, each picture will have a set of codes under it. If you copy the IMG code then paste it into your posting on the forum then when you send it, it will load them onto here.

hope that helps?? Smile

The paint job took me ages! still want to try and get another coat over her before the summer got a couple of scratches on the sunroof and some parking dents on the doors and 1/4s, the sticky stuff cost me 500 beer tokens!! less than the paint job! but i got all of the floor done, doors & inner 1/4s with 80sq ft. but wondering weather to do the roof and under bonnet??? im not sure wheather it worth it?

Thanks for the comments guys!! keeps the old inspiration up whens the next meet? i sholud have her bck at the end of the month?
