happy to be here
« on: December 31, 2012, 11:23:50 PM »
Hello all. Jeeps since high school. Bought CJ5 'basket case' 35 years ago. Plowed my driveway with it every winter since. String of other models in meantime. Brought 3A home last week. pulled PTO off today. Shopping for rear crossmember. The flathead intrigues me. This site is great. Thanks and Happy New Year.

I'll add my welcome, as well.  We're anxious to learn more about you and your Jeeps, past and present.  Pics are great.

It is a little clunky to do but there are two ways to post a picture...You can post the link with {IMG} tags at each end, which Photobucket makes easy for you. �go to your actual picture on photobucket, not the album. On the right side of the page are some URLS in a list among which are Image Thumbnail and Image code...(I think) If you place your cursor over the image code area and click, you should see it change to "Code copied" or something like that.

Go to the 2A page, and start to make your post. When you want the picture, just get your cursor about where you want it, then press CONTROL V . The image code should show up, and when you post either a link to the image or the image itself should show up.

To download an image you need it to be small enough for us. (600KB) The advantage to downloading it is it will always be available in the future.

TO resize your image to a sizeunder our download limit, use a place like webresizer.com or a similar free web based resizing tool. Save it to your computer dowloads folder, and when it is time to download your picture, just follow the prompts after you click on the browse button below the post editor.

Malcom,
Welcome aboard.  Sounds like you've had your hands on some old Jeeps.  Good to have you here.
