Pushed down the picture pecking order by a drug dealer!!

The annoying thing is if you post pics on PH it is one click and it's done i can manage that no problem ..simples ... It's only on PCGB site where you have to host your pics on some site before downloading ...i understand i think?? the procedure but it never works [] Anyway i have my own technical staff to sort things out for ...age has it's advantages !![]

[flat6]

ORIGINAL: Big E I've applied for PCGB membership and hope to get the instructions on the "secret handshake" through soon [] Are there decent PCGB events? Any of the Spydermen get along to any? My Spyder went into storage (temp and humidity controlled of course!) in November and I can't wait to get it back out and stretch it's legs! We built a new house recently and put a garage build on the back burner but now we've put in for planning so hopefully we'll get that approved, built and get the Spyder home where it belongs. It is currently being dwarfed by this monster!

ORIGINAL: flat6 Hi Steve, i'll add you on the next new page[] BigE, we tried and failed to explain it to Brian, so perhaps we don't explain it very well, but i'll try. Based on what you have done, when you click on the thumbnail in your post and view it full size, your browser shows the web address of the picture as http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/upfiles/30002/61553209C5D1404081942FAE221634BC.jpg Grab that web address, put it in your post, highlight it and click the button in your posting window labelled 'image'. That adds the delimiters for it to be recognized as a picture to display. Then when you post it will display the picture. You can actually type the delimiters yourself before and after the web address which is [imag3] before the address and [/imag3] at the end. I've changed the 'e' in image to a 3 just so that it doesn't try to interpret it as a delimiter. You would type 'image' inside the square brackets (or ever img and /img inside the square brackets instead) One step on from that, you should really post your pictures on a website like flickr or photobucket and grab the link from there and do what I have said above. What you have done it upload the picture to the PCGB forum server, which just adds it as a thumbnail in the post. You can as described above then grab the web address of the thumbnail but a) you need 2 posts to make it work b) unlike uploading it to flickr etc. you take up space on the PCGB forum server, which will eventually lead to storage problems, so I don't recommend that. If you click on 'Quote' towards the top right of MY post, you'll see the syntax used on the picture below.

What's the story behind the American muscle Ian? Is that also a 996 turbo hiding in the background?

That number plate would work for me !! Nice car .....like the muscle cars

 

[Steve Brown]

Thanks Flat 6 - I can follow your very clear instructions, and get pictures on here now!

Thanks for the instructions on picture formatting, amended my original post! Unfortunately the muscle car isn't mine! The Spyder is with a local guy I know who has 4 large barns that he uses for car storage. There's an amazing mix of cars, 60's/70's/80's Ferrari's, old Jags, Astons, Alfa's, a 30's Bentley race car, a number of 911's (yep that is a 996 Turbo) and then things like a camper van and a couple of average 4x4's. Don't know why people would pay to keep them inside! They've also got a couple of ramps there so people can tinker with their cars if they want.

Good [] Now we hope you will brighten up the place with pics from your Spyder adventures[]

[] I took a guess at chronological order of joining the thread but could be wrong[&o]

In order of regular posters also known to own, the first contribution I found was: Daro Flat6 Rob K Jdepef356 MrD - one post in first 35 pages and didn't upset anyone. Andrew Kilington VvrooomM In terms of proven ownership by photo it reads; Daro Flat6 RobK Jdedef VvroomM I remember finding the thread and reading 35ish pages one morning before posting, took a while longer to get pics up due to the weather. 366 pages later and it's still going strong. Good work guys.

We all contribute what we can to this part of the forum and it shows by the staggering number off posts As Daro 911 say's Everyone brings happiness here .some by coming .some by leaving [][] Daro 911 is about to reach a mile stone off 7000 posts on the forum overall .[]

 

[MrDemon]

wonder how many posts I have done, cool now I can check 699 I will have to think of some thing good for post 700.

 

[Rocket Man]

I am one more to add to the list, i have no pictures as yet but as soon as the sun comes out i am sure i will. Keith "Rocket Man" Fox

 

[MrDemon]

looks the perfect spec

 

[DarrellWilson]

Feeling the peer group pressure for not posting a photo. Can't wait for the sun so track day at Donington in two weeks, that should give me some good photo opportunities.

Now you are fighting our man Mr D on two fronts 981 v Spyder and here [][][] I was looking forward to post 700 especially if Mr D meant "nice" by something good We have enough to cope with this relentless bad weather so let's try and keep it relaxed and peaceful in this section of the www gents[]

Thanks Graham I think the best thing for me to do then is not to touch the order again and declare the order arbitrary [] Keith "Rocket Man" Fox, I have now added you[]. With that name, i'll look forward to a racy pic like Fire_2's[] Yep Darrell, get a good pic on and stand out from the 'crowd'. There's enough of us to call it a 'crowd' now[8D]

Ooops. I re-posted the whole thing in post #8020 instead of editing post #8001[&:]

Might get my head blown off, but for a bit of fun i've added to the peer pressure and changed the pic used for those who don't have a pic[8D]
