Canadian Poncho · A Poncho Legend!

Linking photos is one of those things that if I were there and showed you, you'd say "Wow this is easy" but trying to describe it is a bit harder. if you use photobucket, go to your photo page. When you mouse over your photos, a menu appears. Move your mouse over the "direct link" and left click. You'll see the message "copied". If helps to have Canadian Poncho opened in one window and Photobucket in another. On here you will see a little "tree" symbol (I've circled it in the photo below):

Click on this symbol and a window will appear. Move your mouse over the "image URL window and right click your mouse. The option to "paste" will appear. Select it and your photo URL will appear in that window. There are other options here- you can resize your photo etc. Once you are happy with what you have, click on the "Insert" button and if all went well you will have your photo appear wherever you left your cursor in your message:

I hope this helps!

Well maybe it is just me but I tried your link and it did not work -- with some effort I did find your pictures, and I think this link will get people to where they can view them in your 'show and shine' album:

And I wonder about the person that painted and spent lots of good money on the interior of what could have been a great convertible:

To each their own, I guess ... I mean, some people like tuner cars ...

No worries Bill, I have been doing computer stuff since the days of TRS-80's and BBS's and I still do things that should work, but do not, it is the

computers and their evil plot to take over the world by driving us crazy that is the real problem

And I love those fastback 50's cars like yours, I'd love to have one some day, either that or a sedan with a wicked top chop
