She's in my garage!
973 Mille Miglia Red
403 Black leather interior
But it's also got the deluxe interior (woodgrain) w/ carpet door panels!
It needs to be cleaned and the paint ain't perfect, but it drove great!

I can't find how you upload pictures! The 'insert image' button is not the right one.

Use the button, and it should upload your pic frrom your 'puter directly into the post. It's supposed to also re-size it correctly, if it's too large.
The button is for loading an image from another site, such as PhotoBucket, etc.

If all else fails, upload the pics to your PFF(found under the "My Account" button), and the post a link.

Sorry guys... there's no way to upload an image. i only have the insert image/tree icon, not one with an arrow pointing up. It loads a pop up with pre-selected images only to choose from.
 
Help, I have a cool parting away shot with the orginal little ole' lady who owned it.

Aaron,   

1st congrats on your patients and new purchase.

2nd great to see you on the registry I hope you enjoy the informationand characters here in the Shark Tank.

3. Follow Joels advice above and you should be able to upload the pics. Most of us (I think) use photo sorces such as PhotoBucket, WebSots, Dot Photo etc.

good luck with your new baby. It nice to see a new fellow displaying the passion.

I don't believe that the auto sizing feature is working. I just tried it and I got a message that my picture was larger than 100 kb.
 
So first, resize your pictures to be less than 100 kb.
 
Save it on your desktop or a folder where you can find it.
 
Select Reply to open the message window.
 
Select the tree icon.
 
Select the Browse button.
 
Select the folder and picture.
 
Select the upload button.
 
Your picture should show up in the preview window.
 
Select Ok.
 
 
Your picture should show up in the message window.
You can click on the picture and resize it.
When you are happy, click on Post Reply.

It is exactly what i said. Something is wrong.
I go to post reply, hit the tree symbol...
There's no browse button to open files from my computer. i ain't a dummy. It's just not there.
 
All that's available is 9 jpegs and one folder- already  there (not from my computer) 
 
I can't be the only one seeing this.
Am I not able to add pictures because i'm not a full member?
