Here's a thread on how to post pictures: http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?p=372483#post372483


well crap! I figured out how to, but now my problem is ALL the pictures I took are too large in file size....what the hell. Any way to fix that? :(

[metalman]

Is there a certain way to take a digital pic to make sure it isn't too large of a file size?

[J.D.]

You could choose a low resolution/picture quality before you snap the picture. I forget how to make the file size much smaller without making the image smaller.

[MrBlvd]

Some digital photo programs allow you to reduce the file size ... this is typically done using an export command instead of the save / save as command ... picture publisher and photoshop both will have this functionality most others should as well...

choose export and pick .jpeg or .gif then you should have some control over the file size by using the compression ratio function in jpeg or by reducing the color pallet size for .gif

I hope this helps :)

Here's a very good program for resizing pics, etc..

Sorry sorry for not having the pics up. On my digital camera there is a quality setting. I WILL take pics tomorrow after I get off work and upload them for all to enjoy. I was actually impressed the way my car came out in the pics, especially my engine :D

Anyway, until then I bid you good morrow :p

Here is the motor, the rear, and my indiglo gauges-notice the dimmer knob and switch on the right. It switchs the gauges from blue and red to a blue green and red.

[metalman]

I have to clean the engine bay, it's a bit dirty. I know the indiglo didn't come out it was about 4:00 when I took the pic. I'll get one at night.

So, any thoughts or suggestions. What you ya think? Do you like the SHO spoiler?

This is my first post of pics so let me know :D

That red color under the hood makes the engine look potent, though I think you overdid it with the wires to the hood light. :D

Once I start, I can't stop. What can I say, I'm a through guy :D

Even the battery matches.

Metalman,

I need that same battery to match the red stuff under my hood. BTW, How are you holding it in place, I thought the factory clamp didn't work with an Optima ??

i got mine for 99 bucks at cotsco and used a universal holder they sell at autozone.
the car looks really now , now you just need some 13" brakes to fill those wheels :D

[metalman]

David,

The battery clamp came with the red top Optima. It doesn't budge an inch.

Oh, I have 13" Cobra brakes on my car :D I have it in my sig. but, I haven't updated the pictures yet. Thanks for the compliments guys. I too am very happy with the way the SHO spoiler came out on my car. I needed to do just a touch of sanding to contour the outside corners of the spoiler the fit with the curvature of the trunk and that was it. If you're interested I can take some pics of the inside so you can see how I mounted it. I just used a saws-all (?) to get access to the bolt on the inside of the trunk and wired the tail light to my existing rear stop lights.

Thanks again,

Metalman

Soon to put on (to hopefully fix my engine problems) Splitfire plug wires, Adj. fuel pressure regulator, and 255lph fuel pump. Then, aluminum rear end parts from a Mark VIII (everything from the driveshaft back)

Where did you get the pinstripeing? That mix would look great on my ZX2.

The pinstriping on the side of my car? It was on the car when I bought it about 3 years ago...I thought pinstripes were a stock thing.

[gunman_sr5]

The pic just makes it look like they are red and blue. Must be from resizeing.
