I can't help with that because I post all of my pictures from my computer, I am smart phone illiterate.... :(

Nice work…I’m in awe of you guys that can tear down things that far and get them back together again!

Every photo here shows incredible progress!

You have gotten more done in 2 and a quarter hours than I get done in a year. :lol:

Great work! Looking forward to more. :metal::metal::metal:

I'm a fan of any thread that has two green Burbans in it.:lol:

As far as photos you might consider getting a tablet for the photos. You can then shoot and edit photos, then post directly to the site. You can keep the tablet in the garage where it's handy to document all of the process. I wished I had taken more when I first started on my Burban. It's amazing how often I refer to them when planning the next task.
