Hey Guys & Gals,

I have a 64C10 Bigwindow Stepside running the OG 250 with an 350 auto and lokar shifter. I drive it as I got it. And love it, but want to make it mine!! So many ways these trucks look good, I truly like them all. My Altar has been photoshoped but I have a pick of "Huppty". Looking forward to going forward on my truck...Any from NC on here...

Well I lied...Cant get my pick to up load, its too big...Needs work..

**ChiefRocka** · 12-22-2008, 11:14 AM

Right on man...nice truck !!!

Welcome aboard from San Jose, California !!

You have any pics of that Lokar shifter ??

I use "tiny-pic" for all my picture uploads....works great

Just be aware of the forum rules, thats all.

Later....

mx6262 · 12-22-2008, 11:20 AM

Thanks for the heads up!! I'll need to read up on the do's and do nots. I have the TALL shifter in mine. Love it. Nice build by the way I followed it on the site....Got any idea for my brown T#@&??

Working on down sizeing???Not sure this will work...

**Chevy Fleetside** · 12-22-2008, 08:45 PM

Someone had to do it..

mx6262 · 12-22-2008, 09:01 PM

I'm working on reducing the size of my picks...There too big...

Picks will be up soon, Your right "someone had to do it, i'm supprized it took this long..Ha,

LuckyHenriksen · 12-22-2008, 09:04 PM

even big pics are better than no pics

they show more detail =]

mx6262 · 12-22-2008, 09:15 PM

Each time I try the system says it "Failed"??

Looking to reduce now, the only site that can take'em is the h.a.m.b

I know there's some way to resize them, as soon as I can figure that I'll post em up..

LuckyHenriksen · 12-22-2008, 09:17 PM

what are you using to load them? I use photobucket, its free, easy, and loads bulk photo batches quickly, then you can just post the image codes

willyp · 12-22-2008, 09:33 PM

Lets see if I know what I'm doing.....

Thanks for the Tinypic .com tip....

**Chevy Fleetside** · 12-23-2008, 12:22 AM

To resize them just use the "Paint" program on your computer. Go to image and click on stretch/skew and you can resize them. You don't need a host to post pictures on this site and I like that.

LuckyHenriksen · 12-23-2008, 12:33 AM

Cool looking truck, but the pics are too small! I like the looks of the door logo

72BlckButy · 12-23-2008, 09:41 AM

Welcome to the board!

Looks like you have a great looking truck.
