Hi, my name is Norbert and since this summer I have a 1980 Fiat Spider 2000ie Cs0
I have average knowledge of technology and cars and I hope that I can find some new information in this great forum and maybe also give an advise or two
My first step is to give the car the old bumpers, a 131 gearbox, better brakes and minimum the performance of a Lancia beta or Fiat Argenta engine.
Welcome! You will find lots of friendly and knowledgeable people here!
HOW TO POST PICTURES IN FIATSPIDER.COM
Well that picture-posting thing sure is confusing. Took me forever to figure it out. Here is what I do:
First, you must post your pictures on photobucket.com or one of the similar competing websites. You can't post pics directly from your computer. So set up a free account there first. The instructions here reference photobucket.com.
Then in your FS.com post, look for the "Img" box at the top of the post, #9 from the left in the row of command icons.
Put the cursor where you want the pic to appear in the post (leave a few spaces after text is a good idea) and click the "Img" button/icon above.
Then go to the photobucket.com site (or competitor) and find your pic. Hover the cursor over the pic and a drop down menu will appear. Then click the "Direct Link" or similar button. In Photobucket, it will respond with a "copied" indication.
Go back to your FS.com post and make sure the cursor is EXACTLY in between the 2 Img boxes: [img](cursor%20in%20here)[/img] then right click and hit "paste" and the web link for the pic will show up in between the 2 img boxes. DON'T hit the IMG button a second time. MOVE your cursor out of the IMG info you just created before you hit enter.
Now when you post the post, the pic will be there!
Remember that if you delete the photobucket "master" pic, it will no longer appear in the posting here on FS.com
Also: there is a size limit to the pictures that can be displayed here, I think it is 750 pixels in width, someone correct me if I am wrong. So you may need to resize (typically downsize) the pics so that they fit properly and all of the pic is displayed and not cropped.
If you right click on the picture file location, you can edit it in windows:
Choose “RESIZE” then “PIXELS” then put 750 in the “HORIZONTAL” box. The vertical will automatically adjust to keep the photo proportional. Close the window, and choose “SAVE” while doing so, and you are all set.
