Still looks good though Keith.
Pics want to be rescaled to 1000 pixels max on the largest dimension before upload. That\'s the largest size the system will handle.
Look forward to some more please.

After meeting up with Keith yesterday and enviously admiring his car, I can say that it looks the absolute business. Gorgeous colour and  smart wheels.
Very nice!

Keith,
 
I had the same problem initially with photobucket. It\'s default is to reduce the size of your pictures when you upload.
 
You need to manually set the size you want.
To do this, log into your photobucket account, underneath the \'Upload images and video\' button is a line of text which says
\' Use CTRL to select multiple files (more options (javascript:void(0))) \'
Click on the \'(more options (javascript:void(0)))\' hyperlink and it will give you a number of image sizes to select.
I selected \'17" screen\' and it works great for me.
Once you\'ve selected your size, click \'save\' and your done.
 
The beauty of using photobucket is that you don\'t have to worry about maximum image sizes as you\'re not actually uploading images to the forums server, just linking to them and storing them elsewhere.
 
I use it on a few different forums and it works well for me.
 
Cheers,
Ian

Have the wheels been refurbed?

Hi, thanks, yes the wheels were done just before I got the car about 3years ago, makes a big difference to the car.

Thanks for the kind comments guys, I got a full Elford turbo set up to play with so may need to pick your brains about that.
