Many times I have tried to get a better look at some of the Avatars posted here but can't. Now is the time to show it off.

Here is mine...

Tell us how you get the picture blown up. I don't know how to change the size when I post a photo. Byron.

On tour at the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance in 2011. Before we installed Bill Wzorek's shocks. You can see some body roll. I'm going about 30mph. Also notice the steering input effort, two hands pulling down. That's what you have to do with the '36 steering box. The replacement '37 box is much easier to steer. Also that top is history!

You have to use a online album / photo hosting site

I set up an album on my profile page with my current and older avatars. It's about as easy as putting a thumbnail in a post. As I recall, you don't have to use a photo hosting site (such as PhotoBucket) to get the image into an album. Just upload it from your computer into the album.

PS: Just found out that you can access a picture from an album in another post, like this:

To show your picture larger than the 800 X 600 pixels that you can upload you need to save your picture to an online service. I use PhotoBucket: Then copy your picture from that website and paste it into your FordBarn post. Then it will show as big as the website you copied it from showed it. PhotoBucket limits width to about 1200 pixels but that's more than big enough to see.
