Posting Pictures

If you want to post pictures in the TDPRI forum the webmaster wants them 640 pixels wide or less. An easy way is to upload them to Photobucket.com. There you will see thumbnails of your pictures. Under each thumbnail is an Img line. Copy that line and paste it into your post. That's it.

You could also upload them to the TDPRI Photo Gallery.

The following works for most Internet pictures.......... and those in the TDPRI Photo Gallery.

Right click on the picture. Select something like "Image Properties" depending on your browser. A dialog box will open.......... copy the address line. In your post, click the picture icon above the typing area. A box will open. Paste the image address in that box. That's it.

Well, there's a whole thread about this 1970s hybrid I picked up last week, but I can't resist showing it off. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you: Burnt Toast...

That is black pearl, and from Stewart-MacDonald (if I remember correctly).

groovy natural

Here is my 68 Thinline I bought a few weeks back.

It is a 68 Maple Cap "Groovy Natural" which has gone thru some serious mods back in the 70s .... but it plays great
The color is an amazing deep brown natural.

Not as unusual as the guitars shown here but here's my baby anyway.
One piece walnut neck, one piece body and now it has a black round switch tip.
