Thread: Well, we've finally managed to run everyone off. How sad.

Tweet

I was at the Mississippi NSRA appreciation day yesterday. It was a 3 hour drive and I had a front tire suffer a cord separation somewhere along the way. I noticed it when I slowed to make a turn. Luckily I carry a spare in the 46, so not really a big deal. Spare was pretty old, so I took it easy on the return trip. Otherwise, not much going on except I got to visit with some old friends.

Since I have found a solution to the Photobucket issue, I might be able to update the build thread tonight. Headed out to to shop to work on the Healey right now.

july/aug is kaka around here. work from cansee to noon. then i'm in the build room sewing or hanging pieces. got a/c in there . if not i'm in the pool .

I check in here at least once a day and pass out a few "likes" or maybe a comment with emoticons. I have to admit when posting progress on my own projects, which you all know is very very slow , I do get frustrated by the pic adding process. My phone takes pics that are usually over 5MB, which is over the limit for just one pic here. Photobucket is now screwing everyone with new fees so I need to discover a fast easy method for downsizing pics for forum posting. Would be nice if there was a built in "re-sizer" on the site but I'm not a tech guru...
Anyway, through the ebb & flow of life, I've got 10yrs in here and probably won't be leaving anytime soon unless they shut it down....

We are all old school, while the new guys on the block, are into this... I see them everyday when out and about... Old phase out, new phase in...

They will see why once I get my truck done, that is, if I can still work on it... Why I'm old school...

ps: Between the rain, and the heat, I'm doing my best to get er done...
Broke a rib a couple days ago, falling off a ladder... Down time again...

Plus all of the manufacturers have convinced this generation that 4drs are "cool", not.
I've owned ONE four door car in my life and that was because of my late wife and I'll never own another. IMHO, there are very few 4dr anything that's much worth a damn

I couldn't make that blanket statement about ALL 4drs....I think some 4drs are cool...like 4dr Lincoln convertibles with suicide rear doors, 4dr hardtops (no post) from the 60s, 4dr crew cabs trucks from the 60's...just to name a few...but must agree that many of the 4drs just don't work as hotrods but at least they're joining in and I applaud their effort...

Hey Tech, Been awhile since I have noticed posting by you. Glad to see you are still out there even if complaining.

Tech, I went looking around and I will be darned, You have been posting. Great.

i use irfanview to resize pics. you can also setup your computer to resize all photos . i've never put my pics on a host site.

Free Image Optimizer - Compress and resize photos

download for free, works great.

No, I'm not coming back! I check in frequently, but rarely see anything of interest.

Thanks Ken, I sort wondered that having an eagling to Shine's Texan humour and that he is an old cowboy from way back.

check the pic on your phone, pick email from list, send it to your self, it will have size option when you click send.
now you have resized for posting. I have I phone, but I'm sure most have this option.

Actually, my phone doesn't give me that option. It sends the photo in full size.

Hey Rich,
I have an iPhone too, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet. After I resize the pic and email it to myself, how do I get it from my email to the website?

Had an awesome outdoor community church service this morning for our towns 125 Anniversary. Some were dressed up period correct for the time and had a great turn out and lots of fellowship and community praise this morning. Taking church outside the walls is one of my favorite things.

Its all about pics-----------------
