What's your car that's pulling it on the trailer btw?

Sorry, don't get the question, but my "normal " car is a 1996 Jeep Cherokee that I also use to pull my trailer. I have license to pull "heavy" trailer, special deal in Sweden as elsewhere..., the Jeep can then pull a trailer that weighs 3250 kg!!!

Well yes you can post all your pics, but the topic will be accepted in the "what you drive" section only if there is the custom shot with the owner manual on the car

And if it's ok for you to be featured on the portal, it would be nice to have a couple of vids too

As for video downloads, well it's for the members who take part in the discussions on a regular basis

Oh yes, I'm gonna stick around. And I have a lot og pics saved ( of me at the Ring) is it OK to post these?
After the pic with me, do I still need to post a pic with the manual/keys?
How do I get to be a "chosen one " to be able to download?

Kind Regards,
Patrik

How would that pic verify anything.....there is no proof its you or your car.

As for the videos, don't ask that question and just be patient and contribute.

OK, I hear you... Will get the owner manual pic asap, for the record this manual does not differ from regular GT3, so on the cover there is a Speedyellow GT3.

I do have a few on- board video's, but no clue how to get them on the computer, each tape is 60 min long, so plenty of space is needed.

I tried to find where one puts a picture in the signature, but to no avail.
Can you please help me?

Kind Regards,
Patrik

click on 'profile' at the top of the page and enter the URL of the pic in the signature area.

RS Patrik · 11-25-2004, 06:50 AM

I am sure this sounds stupid, but the pic is on my C: drive.
When I click on profile, I only get Avatar areas, no signature.

TT · 11-25-2004, 06:52 AM

You need to upload the picture on imageshack.us for instance, the you copy their code in the signature area wich is slighty above

BTW, for the vids, you will need somebody able to rip them, no idea if you know somebody.. if you will manage to put the vids in the PC they would be pretty big since a 60 min VHS would end up in something around 300 or 400 MB for good quality, but we could sort something out for the hosting if your car will be featured

dingo · 11-25-2004, 06:53 AM

you can't link from your C: drive, you need to host the pic somewhere....like imageshack.us and then copy the URL and put it in the right area in the profile.

RS Patrik · 11-25-2004, 07:03 AM

Link is copied, but I still can't find where to put it. I tried in the Signature field, but then the link showed up not the pic...

TT · 11-25-2004, 07:04 AM

You put it in the signature field and then you confirma at the bottom of the page.. you come back here and you should see the pic

dingo · 11-25-2004, 07:11 AM

did you put the IMG tags at each end of the URL?
Like this:

[img]put your url in here[/img]

Do you go often to the ring?

Hi, yes that is my car. I am the tall guy in the picture and the shorter guy is my mechanic, not that he was at the Ring to care of me, he was with the Swedish gang as I was. I now have gotten a personal licence plate, that I'm sure you'll like.
I am sure we met somewhere then, I met 1 photographer in Pistenklause 1 night when we celebrated a birthday, and 1 guy for lunch at Zur Burg. Was it you?

I don't think it was me, cause I'm not a professional photographer, I'm just a big car enthusiast with a little digicam

And secondly I couldn't be there that weekend, I had some other commitments. The pics were taken by a friend of mine.

RS Patrik · 11-25-2004, 08:07 AM

Thanks both now working!!!

It's the little things that does it...

TT · 11-25-2004, 08:10 AM

HAHA, isn't this st-anger's sign?

Not wanting to sound picky, but it's a bit of a confusion if two ppl have the same signature

if you want to send me some pics to use to make a similar one but different, I can do it for you.

RS Patrik · 11-25-2004, 08:21 AM

It is, and maybe you are right, it is confusion.

How do I send the pics to you? PM?
