Hey Les good to have you onboard you PH Virginbiggrin

Now you guys!

I'm a bit of a muppet when it comes to uploading pictures & I have some new pics of my car fitted with the 20" Alpinas ,so if anyone can help, fire away as i dont see any place to "click for upload" ?

I'm not sure you can do that directly on to this forum???

I think what you may have to do is have the pic uploaded somewhere else with its own URL and then you can embed the pic here thus:

[pic]URL[pic]

But I'm no expert on these things either. Maybe someone else knows a different way?

Steve I think you're best to load the pics up onto Photobucket or similar and then "embed". I've not yet managed to load pics onto PH but it's clearly possible.
Cheers,
Jason

Right, lets see if this works - I've loaded a picture up onto an external site and linking to it from PH now - if this works you will see below a picture of the best car ever made

There you go Parksie - it's easy when you know how. If you click on the picture of my 8 you land on an external site, search around there and you find a section on uploading pics and how to insert them.

Looking forward to seeing pictures of your wheels etc

Go here to do all of this: http://ph.uncle-dave.co.uk/

Hi, the [pic] URL [/pic] is correct but you must have the "/" in the second square bracket = [/pic]

Cheers

The wheels look the mut's nuts Steve, very nice. What brakes have you got under there? You've seen the pics of the guy from .de with big brakes under ? AMG I think they were..

What's the ride quality like with 20"? (If you'll pardon the expression)
Cheers,
Jason

Very nice! How much were the AP Racing six pots? and the Brembo's for that matter? Just my idle curiosity..

Cheers,
Jason

PS what's that sticking out of the front of the VeeDub in the picture? Some new attempt at re-routing the exhaust manifold?
