Warren,

Thank you for your efforts to find a good home for these items. Know there are many local Model T folks who may be available to assist you. If I may suggest an alternative for you to locate vendor's catalogs such as Langs Old Car Parts, Snyders Antique Auto Parts or Texas T Parts so your descriptions are understandable/use familiar terms for potential buyers. FYI the Langs catalog has the most pictures to aid you. My intent is to aid you and is not intended to be seen as criticism. Best of luck. Don

Warren, it is not likely the computer which is blocking downloads of pictures. It does require a certain set of steps to be followed. It took me a good while to sort it out, and I still make mistakes, but it is do-able. If you have a stash of stuff to move, it really is best done with photos of same, to get the most interest for you. Perhaps others with greater tech ability will be able to help.

Warren if you can email me pictures, I can resize them for you and post them. If my corporate email rejects them, just let me know and I will send you an alternative email to try.

You can post pictures by minimizing screen. Home screen and post reply screen will both appear. drag photos from Your files to the home screen. now return to single screen by clicking minimize tab again single post screen will appear. click on post reply and then click on add attachments. add files will appear with file list. click on cancel and go to minimize screen again and drag selected photos from home screen to add and select. green check will appear if file is correct size. usually that is enough and you don't haft to hit select files which can cause double photos to be loaded. max size if I remember right about five photos. I know just enough to be dangerous. if the file is too big system wont accept it but i find in most cases photo will auto resize and post. I am not a computer guru. just a few things I have learned about posting photos. I still have a lot to learn and others here on the forum or much better qualified than I to give You tips. will delete post tomorrow since its not a ad just advice ? on posting ad photos.

I think it's actually easier to post from a smartphone. Even then, trouble is, you often have to "go in" and crop your picture of unnecessary stuff like lots of sky or surroundings of the subject you're wanting to show. I thought this "new" platform was to allow us to send pics of any size, but it doesn't seem to be that way. Bit of a nuisance but I've gotten used to cropping down my pics no matter what even before I attempt to post. Just a suggestion. It's a bit of a chore no matter which way you do it. That's why we appreciate Tom Rootblieb's pictures so much! That guy spends TONS of time sending them!

The other problem is these new cameras have a very high Dots Per Inch ratio.

All photos sent through the Internet are reduced to a much lower number of about 70 dots Per Inch.

That fact can turn a high resolution dots per inch 4 X 6 inch photo into a low resolution 4 X 6 Dots Per Foot photo.

If you are using Microsoft software in your computer there is a free MS Paint program included that will let you change the size and make a lot of other changes to your original photo.

You just have to search for MS Paint and add a shortcut to it.
