Thanks for the warm welcome guys! Here's a few pics to get started. Nothing fancy on this one, just a JL Chevelle stocker that I painted pink and decaled up a bit. Rats......files too big!

Thanks again guys! I have ALOT of stuff waiting to put up here from you to check out. I cant wait to get some of you input and advice. Problem is, my pic files always come out too big, even after I crop them down to the bare minimum. They also arent very sharp and clear.
Any of you digitally adept people have any advice for a poor pld computer spaz?

JPR, If you resize them they stay clear, just do that after you do your croping. If you use a decent photo editor that is. 400 x 400 in jpeg form usually works right from the page file editor to post.

Depending on your camera type you might be able to re-size there. Also go
www.photobucket.com , this is who I & alot of other people use, you can re-size there also.
