Proud owner of a 1959 panel

Hi,
Bought a 59 panel from a fellow member in qld he had cut all the rust out. So now I have the fun part of welding the new panels in passenger dogleg, both outriggers, cargo sill, Both sides of the front floor, battery tray and corner. Apart from that it is great shape for its age. I got heaps of parts with the sale.
Picked up a r&r bed from Jamie at kustom kombi. I can't wait to get into it and on the road. Hope I may be able to pick your brains to help me out. Hopefully these photos load up.
Thanks
Charlie

Nope, links don't work....

If you want to post a photo in Flickr, click on the photo in the gallery, click on the share tab & then click on the link. It will become highlighted. Right click the link, copy and then paste in your DSK post..

But the best thing to do is create a (free) Photo Bucket A/C and up load your photos. Then you can copy and paste the photo here without any file size issues. Hover the mouse on your Photo Bucket uploaded photo, 4 choices appear, click the bottom choice - IMG code - it will flash 'copied' and then just right click in your DSK post and paste.....

Voila, photo is placed in the post! Hope that helps.

some good points, always best to upload to the forum tho(im guilty of not doing this sometimes) .. that way, if the outside links die, we wont loose the images in the threads.. go back a few years into old threads and youll see heaps of missing pics... (well you wont see em

)

That's true Warb but a lot of people aren't computer savvy and a lot of photo file sizes are big, so problems occur trying to paste direct. That's why a lot of Forum users give up trying to use a photo stored on their computer as an avatar - they don't know how to reduce the file size. Using Photo Bucket or other file sharing sites, makes it simple...

But yes, it is very annoying when looking at old threads and the photos have been sucked into the cyberspace graveyard..... fair enough point!

Here's some handy free software for resizing photos - pretty easy to use, even I can do it! http://www.fookes.com/ezthumbs/

Actually I now have a Mac and don't need it but good to use on a Windows machine
