Default Jumping in; intro and question

Hello Vette lovers,

I'm Dan, native of Quebec, french speaking who now lives in Huntington Beach, CA. Where I come from, there is that white stuff for a good six month so it's a bit overkill to own a 'vette unless you're filthy rich.

So, last August, I made my dream come true: bought a brand new 2008 Z06 Atomic Orange Metallic. I'm in LUV!

Q: what is the most commonly used site, and free, that you are using to post pictures?

Welcome to the forum.. If you go down to the help section, there are some stickies on posting pics using photobucket.. It seems to be one of the most used.

Welcome to the forum and yes it sucks when you have to put the vette away for 6 months each year.
