That’s important they must do an awesome job. I’ll send pics when I receive them from Rick.

I would really like to show some nice wrap themes here but still cannot upload pics with the image button. Even not on my mac, always asking for an http link and not opening the Fotos filesystem. Any help here ? Maybe because of my newbie registration ?

When I edit this message I see a ribbon bar at the top. About 1/2 way over there is an "insert image" - first a insert link that looks like an infinity symbol then the thing that looks like a camera viewscreen. Click on it and it opens up a window with "drop images here". The only thing I can think of is that either you don't have a permission or the files might be too large. Try posting to the experimental area a small image...

Thank you thats exactly what I try to do, but no file window opens. I am in a McLaren forum they use similar program and there it works as you describe it. Maybe I should ask the admin if maybe I don't have the rights .... just cannot drop a picture as it just is a small box you cannot drop a pic, only write down a link and that doesn't work

I have the same problem posting pictures too. I think it is a rights issue that needs to be addressed by the admin.

There are some things that only owners are allowed to do, and there are some things that only paying members are allowed to do. That's just the forum.. I thought there used to be a sticky topic about what was what but can't find it any more.

Have you resized the pictures smaller? I use MS paint and reduce them to ~600 x 800 pixels. Then they upload.

I'm an owner and have looked several times for how I can contribute to the site. Seems that that information is well hidden. Sent couple of PM's to the admin... Crickets

Tks for your ideas. I tried to find a „How to & rules“ section but maybe there is no. Didn’t even know about baying members, nothing stated about this in the forum help section (that I can’t find :rolleyes:

Can't wait to see it. I'm going to do the Heritage Wrap one of these days!! Update us when its finished with pics.

Speaking of wraps and/or paint, has anyone seen a 05-06 Car in the color of Miles/Hulme 1966 MKII? If so, I'd love to see it...or if any of you guys do great photoshop.

I get the red with white stripes GT in january, only 400 Miles on it. Love the look and normally would do a XPEL clear protection wrap on it. But still not sure a I love the Miles/Hulme 1966 MKII colors and think about having it wrapped like this. Difficult decision :oops:.
Still not able to upload pictures, the admins did not answer my questions ...

That’s awesome. Congrats the car is amazing. Red is beautiful. I purchased it new in red years ago and I decided to paint it heritage because I always loved that color. I wanted to do it now while Rich was still around. If he hadn’t agreed to it than I would have not chosen to do it. The car was perfect and I couldn’t have anyone else do it but him.

Check out the homepage of SCOTT Kepple I love the used look wrap the Ford GT. He did a junkyard queen wrap for my Dodge Challenger Hellcat and it look absolutely stunning ...

Imagine a wrap like on the poster of the following link, always look like coming directly from the racetrack, original paint is fully protected and wrapped cars like this are so easy to take care of. Just don’t wash them ... :LOL::love:
