Threads are strange things sometimes. You feel you are talking to yourself!
I have a huge thread running on my project on another forum.

750+ answers and 49,000+ hits! (in 2 years)

I will go for weeks with zero response and then suddenly a golden reply comes back that help you tons.

Keep going!

I didn't think you cared

Your thread is very picture heavy, which is great but I think people may be less likely to reply to that than a thread with more talk.
Anyway, not far now. Keep it up.

Yes love the pics. Keep them coming.

Things are looking great and it's good to see how people go about their restoration. I've been watching this thread with great interest but haven't made many comments.

It's such a good story keep it up and I can't wait to see the finished thing.

Wish I had the time, money, skill or space to do my car!!

It's getting brighter with each posting! Need plenty of these

Any chance you could scale you pictures down a bit? They take an age to load and I can't fit them on the screen (maybe I need a bigger screen...)

800 pixels wide is about right to fit in the viewing window on here

Try this Owen...

Click on (more options) before uploading

Then click on Large (640x480), and then click SAVE at the bottom.

This should solve the problem.
