Default She is a keeper!!!!

Here is a pic of my latest Mod my new RK Sport Hood looks killer. My wonderful girlfriend drove 2 1/2 hours one way to Westcoast Corvettes to pick it up for me ( God I Love that woman) and she even droped it off at the paint shop for me! She is a keeper for sure!!!

Gosh man, the picture is so wide I can't tell much about it. Give me a minute to go hook up the wide screen viewer.

Two problems that I see:

1. First, you really need to resize your pics. I think the Forum generally recommends that sig pics be no larger than 400 X 300 pixels. However, in this case you can probably get by with 640 X 480 pixels or some where in that vicinity. If you go much larger than this, then it will cause problems with your text not wrapping properly as in your original post and in this one.

2. The second problem is in the way you inserted your images. You have the image tags for the two images side by side which causes your post to run out even further to the side horizontally. In this case, the pics should have been inserted one on top of the other. You can do this by editing your original post, inserting you cursor between the two images, then pressing the ENTER key on your keyboard. This won't do anything for the individual picture size but you can see how this helps some by the way I've redone them below. Press the QUOTE in my reply below and you can see how I redid your images and tags versus the way you did them in your original post.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

You're welcome. I see you have the pics in you original reply reoriented and that helps. Hang in there. We all had to go through the same learning curve and you're learning quickly.

BTW, your ride looks awesome!
