New guy ... new toy

Post by tonkatoy »

:wave: Just picked up a 72 celica a couple weeks ago.. It's Very Very clean ... and it has the 18rg engine with a 5 speed update.
I used to have several of these 1st gens back in the 70's . My first celica was a 72 just like mine now. Anyway, I plan on doing a color change to a light green metallic / aqua . there is a 73celica i seen on this website painted light tealgreen with konig rewinds on it , Flares and spoilers with right hand steer.. VERY Sharp looking ride !
You guys have a great site here !!
Glad to be part of it !
Thanks !
tonkatoy.

Where is says Img here on the tool bar you click it

(img)(/img) - This comes up

Then insert your pic source in between the brackets..... say :

http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/tt14 ... ngs005.jpg

A picture will then come through :

Welcome! :wave:
Posting images is simple.
- Place your picture on an public site like imageshack or photobucket.
- Copy the URL
- Click on the -Img- button above the edit screen, and paste the URL of your picture between the two IMG tags.
- Done! :2thumbs:
Click -Preview- to check if it works.

Now you have no more excuses not to post pics..... :wink:
Lately my mind is bit like my internet browser; too many open tabs, some are frozen,
and I have no idea where the music is coming from..... :roll:

At the top of the introduction section is a thread title "How to post; images, youtube, lists, tables etc." that should answer your questions about posting.

Welcome to the forum! Can't wait to see these pictures.

Not everyone believes in "community". Some consistently hate & are negative. Some are self-preserving egomaniacs. The elitist clique ignores anyone outside their bubble. Lastly, innocent spectators, & then those who believe in community.
