Is it possible to add a photo to a private message? If so, how do you do it?
Thanks.

I use Flickr, same as I use to post pictures to a thread. Just copy & paste the BBCode. You can choose the size. Only post the Code between the [IMG]XXXXX[IMG].

I just went and looked at flickr. Not sure about this. Looks like one more place on the internet to house my personal data. Not sure I want to be included in someone else's database right now...

Don’t know about PMs, but for posts, I save the photo as an image on Fordbarn and then use that url to attach to the post.

I grew up in Torrance in the 60's - 80, ... PCH and Calle Mayor. The best place on the planet growing up. My brother still lives in the house and I was planning on driving the "A" there next month for some picture at the Torrance Beach parking lot and one at Ave I. They will match some pictures of my new to me, 8-year old 68 Dodge Charger when I was 16.

Regards
Bill

Very cool, Bill. There are a lot of Photo Opportunities spots along the Esplanade.
