First you need to put them on a webserver somewhere, your personal album on these forums would do.

once you have then on there, for each picture use the IMG quotes - click on the Img button on the top of the posting window, put in the web address to the pic, then click it again.

hope that helps,
Kev.

The more i look at the silver(primer picture) the more i think that it's not a half bad colour either

The price to get an fto done inside doors and full respary is around 4k..Its alot of money.The only reason i could get it done is i didnt have to pay the labour.I only had to buy the paint.That cost 1k+vat no joke..


This meeting on the 13th.Were is it.Would like to see a few well kept fto's and get some idea's to impove mine. :smt047

Nice... I have the dial rings, like the way it catches whatever bit of light is there at night, gives a classy look

Thats a really nice paint job. I'm hoping to jazz up my dials as well. Ur insurance will probably jump up with a paint job of that expense. You'd want to check with them so its fully insured. Be safe
