I have a freind who is a bodyman, he said it needs minor cosmetics, as well as a qaurter panel. Well after she wrecked it she gave me the car. so here i am with a Jaguar, i really have no use for it, and have no interest to fix it. it is DEFINATLY fixable, i have a rough idea of what it is worth and a rough idea of what it would cost to fix. everything else is in great shape, interior, engine and all!

Posting pics & location here would be helpful and will actually end up saving you time since you won't have to bother with remailing them and those that are too far away or are not looking for what is depicted.

Found this on another site as to how to post pics on a car forum.

I use Photobucket, but this will apply to other free picture hosts for the most part:

1. First, transfer your pictures from your digital camera to your hard drive. If you are unsure how to do this, check the instructions that come with your camera.

2. Save the pictures to a JPG format. Your photo-editing software will have a 'save-as' option that will let you choose one of these formats. TIP: Make sure your photos are in color and are sized for web-viewing - 640x480 are good for inserting into a page, 800x600, 1024x768, and larger are best for stand alone viewing (new link). A 2000 x 1600 picture will take a long time to load and mess up the viewing of the page for everyone else.

3. Now that your pictures are formatted for the web and saved to your hard-drive you are ready to begin!

4. In order to let others see your photos you need to store them where web browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc) can retrieve them at any time. People cannot see pictures stored on your hard drive, i.e. C:\mypictures\myv8z.jpg. You must store your photos on an FTP site or on a website (Photobucket or Picasa for example) that lets you upload pictures. These are mostly free sites with annoying ads. Most Internet Service Providers give their customers free server storage for personal websites. Contact your ISP to find out what you need to do to access the FTP site where your content can be stored.

5. Once you have a place to keep your pictures, upload them to that site using the instructions specific to that site.

6. Next you will need to find the address where your images are stored - this is called a URL. Every webpage on the Internet has a URL. You can see the URL of a page in the address window at the top of your screen. It begins with http:, short for hypertext transfer protocol. For example, http://forums.hybridz.org is the URL address for the HybridZ Forums home page.

7. Your pictures will have their own unique URL. This will include the sites address and your file name - don't forget to include the file extension. For example, a picture with a file name of myv8Z.jpg on the HybridZ homepage would have a URL of http://www.hybridz.org/myv8Z.jpg. Photobucket and other hosting sites add a lot of stuff in here, so don't be surprised to see a url like http://i123.nameofhoster.com/ab/albu...z%20/myv8z.jpg

8. Once your photos are uploaded to your webspace, they are ready for use on your message board post. In a second browser window, you open the forum thread where you want to post and start your reply or new message. You can also edit a prior message to add pictures using this process. Type your message in this browser window until you are ready to add images, then change windows to your picture website (i.e. Photobucket). Find the picture you want to post and copy the url (this will save you a lot of typing, they are always very long). To copy, highlight the url by left-clicking prior to the http part and make sure the entire part is highlighted by moving your mouse to the right. Once it is highlighted, either press Control-C or go to Edit-Copy to copy the url. Some websites like Photobucket will automatically copy the url if you left click on any part of it- a small box pops up and says Copied. You usally want to use the one that starts with http. In Photobucket, this is called the Direct Link.

9. To display your picture in the message board post you are typing, click the insert image icon which appears in the options above the box where you are typing your message. [align=center] [/align]
10. When you click this icon, a box with "Http://" will open in your message asking for the url of your image. Note that it is highlighted, so if you type anything in it the Http part goes away. You are now ready to paste the url that was copied in step 8 here. With the Http part highlighted, press Control-V or Edit-Paste and you should see the same text as was copied in the box. Photobucket Shortcut- Once you are comfortable doing this, you can use the text in the IMG code in Photobucket located below the Direct Link you were using. This automatically adds the IMG codes before and after the url and saves you some time. Just determine where you want the image, copy it from Photobucket, and paste it into your post.

11. To let viewers see a larger image, all you need to do is paste the picture url into the post. Do not add the IMG before and after the url. This will allow viewers to click on it and let it load on another page.

12. Repeat 8 through 11 as needed for additional photos.

13. Click the "Preview Post" button at the bottom of where you are typing to see what your post will look like. If you see a red X where your picture should be, there is a problem. This is usually an improper url- either it was not properly copied or there is another problem. When you are ready to submit the post, you click submit. Your message will then be posted on the board with your image.
