This guy will draw your car for $120. Not sure how big the pic is but I'm assuming it's way bigger than 8x10.


What a rip!

I don't think that's a rip...considering it's colored and all.

although, as y'all know I did this for free:

Hey, could someone please tell me how to insert an image. When I use the URL from another TMS thread, it just inserts the url instead of the picture

You can't display a picture that was put on here as an attachment. The picture has to be on the internet somewhere:

URL Link: http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...ustang1a-1.jpg

IMG Code: (after I shrunk your picture by 50%)



Not an attachment, but a thumbnail from Photobucket:

I HATE MY STUPID INTERNET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, it seems to be something wrong with my ISP or something, because I couldn't get on to TMS (and only TMS) for the past 12 hours or so.

Then, I get a dumb: Internet explorer has a problem and closed...do you want to send an error report (or something along those lines). Then, when I try getting back on, it does the typical "IE can not display this webpage" crap.

So, right now I'm on a neighbor's wireless real quickly, just to see if it works, which obviously it does.

So, I have to sign off and just wait. I hate this crap.

Well, I'm back on, at least for now. I seriously think that TMS blocks my IP address for some reason

Thanks, I was wondering why copy and paste works for pics on ebay and stuff, but not for TMS pictures. Must be a copyright thing or something.

The copy and paste just doesn't work for attachments for some reason. Probably something to do with how, or where, they are stored.

Mike, try running a defrag program like from Executive Software. Believe it or not, this program makes your pc run way more efficiently. It cured alot of my programs that started running wierd.

Or, just go get a mac (right, Brian?).

Well I wasn't going to say that... but it is a solution.
Another one is to ditch IE immediately and get firefox http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
This way you only have to use IE for going to the windows update pages. I stopped using IE years ago (still have to use Windows @ work )

Oh, when I say ditch IE, I mean stop using it unless you absolutely need to IE: Windows update.
That is, if you can still get to TMS and read this...

Here's the gun rack I ended up getting for the trunk:

Almost cost as much as the gun!

But I have a problem buying cheap crap. I'd rather spend the money and get something that looks good and is functional (with the lock).

Me too.
I have even set up a whole NO MICROSOFT Linux computer.
It does most all the things I want it to except run complex windows programs.

I tried Linux for awhile but got a little frustrated with it. I eventually went Mac. I'd never go back to Windows. I'm not a mac zealot but it's easily been the best PC I've ever owned. The only thing I "need" Microsoft for is MS Access, but that's why I want a Intel-Mac so I can dual boot. I've been thinking of hooking up my old spare PC and installing ubuntu and trying out the latest distro(Feisty? I think) just to have another one around.

Dang, $200+ for a rack? Better be pretty good for that price.

Looks cool though.

It was either that, or $70 for a stamped steel one with no lock. Which would you have "pulled the trigger" for?

Here's my new MGW goodies..

As expected, finish quality is first rate! The license plate is especially impressive. All billet, triple chrome, and heavy duty! Even check out the security screws!

I'll post these pics in the general forum as well, but you guys get to see it first.

Coat Hangers



Seat Lever Buckle Covers



Coin Holder



Gripper Shift ****



License Frame

I like the shift **** and the frame... Will he offer it with more than "GT" in the frame? You know how I am about too many GTs... and there is another one right above it.
