Please tell us you didn't drag all the toys out during your most recent 118 degree day! [smiley=camera_sm.jpg]

Very nice camera work, Bob. A suggestion to resize your pics with the largest dimension no greater than 600 pixels. Otherwise, I think you've got a handle on posting snaps.

We'll be looking forward to more. [smiley=thumbup.gif]

I did it at about noon today, a bit later than I wanted, kinda got a shadowed effect, that I didn't want .

It was 100 F at the time .

I was kind of wondering if they would be too large, my 15 inch CRT monitor they are too big, but  the 17 or 19 inch LCD monitor at work, they are fine .

The Guzzi's a beauty. Wait'll Bengt Phorqs sees it.

Ask ol' Mike if he really stopped at a S'East Texas church on Sunday morning looking for... free coffee. ::)

If I go back to Phoyobucket and resize the pictures, will they automatically be corrected in the posting in this thread ?

I'd say it's a good possibility for success, although I've not tried it before. Reference your lost forum snaps when you deleted the Photobucket pics.

Give it a try. What's the worst that could happen? ;D
You might have to resize then repost 'em to your initial thread posting using the forum posting modify button.

It's pretty easy, only the oilhead has standard insurance, the others have collectors insurance, only supposed to be used as a 'pleasure' vehicle, so they get limited usage .

I have a three car garage, they are packed in there, I'll get a photo of what it looks like before I get them 'untangled' to get a car out .

I went back to photobucket and did a resize of the pictures deleted the originals in the posting, reposted the reduced size pictures, only the one of the Z3 didn't come out correct, don't know why .

Bob, I've said it before and will repeat it.  If you ever decide to move the Guzzi to a new home, call me first.  Titling in Texas is a little more user friendly than in Arizona.  droool, droool, droool!
