Stacks On!!!

Well...after about two weeks worth of work, I finally got her put back together. I replaced a front fender, passenger side door, sanded her down, sprayed her black and put all the original molding back on (what a pain after I ground off the original rivets ) The best part though is the dual 5" Miter cut stacks that I mounted. Best decision that I have made so far! Everything is louder, and in a good way! IMHO, there is nothing better than a black truck with just the right amount of chrome accents. I want to post pics but I can't figure out how to make my digital camera pics small enough to upload. Any ideas?

For the pictures, because they are far more important than anything else:

1. Open the picture with Microsoft Paint.
2. Go to "Image" on the top utility bar, and then go to "Stretch and Skew".
3. Alter the "Horizontal" and "Vertical" by 50%. This will make the picture smaller.
4. Go to "File" and "Save as", and save it as something else, like "chicken soup".
5. Upload "chicken soup" to DTR.

And that should work. And stacks are awesome.

I have to agree. IVIEW is one of the easiest programs I've ever used. Click FILE. OPEN the picture in the file you want, click IMAGE on the top toolbar, click RESIZE and I usually select 700 width and click OK. Then click FILE and SAVE AS. Then I usually just add an "R" to the existing file for "RESIZE" and save it to the same file I found it in originally.

Well, MS Paint is free too.

Yeah, but Irfanview is just a great utility to have. It will view just about any graphics file. Make is pretty handy for viewing files you do not have the program for. Plus it starts fast and uses very little resources.
