Another NewBe Here.....

Hey Guys & Gals,

I have a 64C10 Bigwindow Stepside running the OG 250 with an 350 auto and lokar shifter. I drive it as I got it. And love it, but want to make it mine!! So many ways these trucks look good, I truly like them all. My Altar has been photoshoped but I have a pick of "Huppty". Looking forward to going forward on my truck...Any from NC on here...


Well I lied...Cant get my pick to up load, its too big...Needs work..

Re: Another NewBe Here.....

Each time I try the system says it "Failed"??

Looking to reduce now, the only site that can take'em is the h.a.m.b

I know there's some way to resize them, as soon as I can figure that I'll post em up..

Re: Another NewBe Here.....

what are you using to load them? I use photobucket, its free, easy, and loads bulk photo batches quickly, then you can just post the image codes

Re: Another NewBe Here.....

To resize them just use the "Paint" program on your computer. Go to image and click on stretch/skew and you can resize them. You don't need a host to post pictures on this site and I like that.
