Finally joined.

[GaryC]

Hello everybody. Been a member of Team Camaro and Camaro Research Group for more than a decade and thought I would finally become a member here. I'm also a member on Team Chevelle, but rarely visit, unless I need my 67 or 69 Chevelle fix.

Didn't see a specific forum for this so I figured the lounge would be a good place to start. I've had quite a few GM musclecars since the age of 14 and currently own a 1969 Z28 X33D80 early June 06A Camaro, my second since 1975. I'm a big fan of all musclecars, but my favorite is the first gen Camaro and specifically the Z28's. I hope you all don't mind me lurking on the site, lots of stuff to learn about the real special cars. Thanks for having me, if you will have me.

I haven't got new pics posted yet, but I have taken the ralleys off for the Vintage Wheel Works V40's and BFG tires. Looks way better. Ralleys are FW's anyway.

Too late to edit it now...Sorry...,&quot;Charley&quot;. I could have called him Chuck, oh...that's my sons name. I call him Chuckles though.

Spoiled Bratsville? Is that near Phoenix? My ma lives in Tempe. Rick...Now your just teasing me. What I can't resist other than a 69Z28 is a 69 Chevelle SS Silver with black top and stripes. Whew!!!

Always been a big GS fan. I like the early Reviera's myself with the clamshell headlight covers

Welcome! Your car looks great with the stripes and the vinyl roof. Always enjoyed that look.

Chuckles? that seems to fit for Charley <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif welcome

[GaryC]

Thanks guys for the welcome mat.

[GaryC]

Hey guys. Since I AM new here I was wondering about adding an avatar and loading the link to the pics of my car in my sig. I'm assuming I need a few post before I get that privlege correct or no? My pics are hosted on photobucket and after looking at &quot;MY STUFF&quot; I'm not quite sure how it's done here. I have an avatar small enough to add but I have to go back to look how it's uploaded since the pic is on my computer.

[Charley Lillard]

You should be able to ad a avatar now.

[GaryC]

Hey Charley, you might want to clue me in. I just see a place to copy a url in edit profile in my stuff. No upload or anything like that? Not the usual thing for me, but I am willing to learn. I see 2 things I'm interested in learning on this site. How to put a pic of my car where my member name is and how to post pics in a post when I need to. I'm still looking over the site and haven't run into any how too's and whatnots yet. I like what I see though.


I do see where I would have to have a webpage of my own, but I'm not into that scene. Probably not going to happen I suppose. Anyway, I think I got it now.

Edit profile
Go to signature area (like you did)

put your image file in your signature line using filename or filename

[GaryC]

Hey Bruce, I'll give it a shot. What's the diff between the 2 your showing? Both look the same. All this is assuming I have a pic hosted somewhere and NOT on my computer correct?

I don't think it will work coming from my own computer. Cannot link an avatar to my membername or an image of my car in my sig from my computer. No biggy. I can deal with that.

[Xplantdad]

Both work the same. You have to host on Photobucket or a site like that...

Invite Bruce over for lunch, he can show you everything in a few hours. I think he's taught most of us. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

LOL <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif

[GaryC]

Yeah. I figured out this site doesn't do what some some sites do with the upload. I'm good with that. One thing though, 80x80 pixels is kind of small for a pic in your sig isn't it? Hey Bruce, what size is your pic? Is 640 X 480 139.00KB too big?
