New C5 vette owner
Hi All,
Just got this car a few days ago and love it, our first vette. 2000 Torch Red Convertible, I will be fighting the wife for driving rights. I found out a long time ago that joining a forum is the best way to get info on something specific. So here I am. No questions yet, just sayin' howdy from Tennessee

) This is the best forum period! Always active and some excellent, knowledgeable people! ( a few jerks too, unfortunately, but that's people) After you have been reading here for awhile you'll learn who to listen to and who to ignore.

As for posting up pics, you need to first upload them from your computer to a hosting site like photobucket.com or tinypic.com. I use tinypic.com anymore as they make it very easy to resize the photos to be forum compatible. Once you have uploaded them, just copy the IMG link to your post on the forum and the pic should appear.
