However do we have a tutorial for the cyber challenged?

Welcome everyone! The best thing to get you started would be to read the FAQ page. Click on the "Home" link on the left side of the bar across the top and then in the left column you will see a "FAQ" link. Click on any of the links near the bottom and read through the questions.

It can be a little challanging at first but if you're able to restore a 40+ year old car...this will be a piece of cake...

Also feel free to ask specific questions here and we'll try to help out.

Great to see this forum up and running. Now if I could just come up with something to say...

Great going, guys! Now I have another excuse to hang out at the library computer while obnoxious teens surround me. I have to get my comptuer fixed so I can go home and spend sleepless nights on the forum

OK guys... what's the scoop here. I'm finally getting to have a look around and get things set up. Do you have to be an admin to get to use pics in your signature? I tried to figure out how to do similar to Kenny and Patrick, but it says I don't have those privileges. Unless I'm missing something here?

It also doesn't appear as though I can add an avatar either. This option is there, but I can't see a way to change anything.

You know how us administrators like to be special

I'm not sure what's going on. I looked in the avatar manager section of the control panels and it seems everyone has permission. Maybe Pat knows???

I found the problem with the avatars and fixed it. Try it again.

This is great, guys- nice work Kenny and Pat! I noticed in the Member's list on the main page that there are pics of Gary's and Al's cars- are all of the pics from the old page going to be transferred over? Kenny has the only decent digital pic of my car as either he or Roger doctored it up a bit so I don't have it myself. Also, is there a way that one of you can add it to my profile so it appears when I post?

Thanks, Kenny! What the heck's an avatar?

I just filled some information into my profile. However, I'm wondering if there is a way to expand on this either in the member's list or somewhere else on the site in the future. I'm not puting the current setup down as I was thinking about this before the new site went up. I think it would be cool to have a larger space to tell about yourself and have a picture with the owner and thier car- see this website to understand what I'm talking about. http://www.hellsbellescarclub.com/ This would allow those who don't make it to the meetings to know who they are talking to online. Or, I suppose this could just be done in the thread for posting pictures!

Roger,

Signature photos have been enabled. Try once more. There are no animated signature pix allowed.

OK, sorry to be a PITA, but 2 KB picture for the sig is like non-existent. I checked both Patrick's and Kenny's to get a feel for what their's is, and they are far bigger than 2 KB. I can't figure a way to get a 500x100 pic to go below 20kb. Help!

Kenny's is 8.62 KB and Patrick's is 6.92 KB (according to Photoshop).
