Been a very LONG time since I saw a "Woodys Wheel Works" decal. He must be as old as you are George. Very good people!!!!!

Hi George,

You're looking for something like this...

[i m g] https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-WwzFof4lqiY/TlHCTlbyy9I/AAAAAAAAKiQ/yTHL7KB3UI8/s720/IMG_2421.JPG[ / i m g]

in the Post Reply window when you are editing the post. (I had to add some spaces where they normally are not found to keep the markup language visible)

The easiest method is the attach photo using the "+ Additional Options..." method but that lacks the bigger picture posted and requires you to get the photo down to 500 KB in size first. Please feel free to send me a private message if you would like some offline assistance.

Cheers and keep at it till you succeed. You can continue to "modify" your post for a while (see the top right of the post box for "Modify." Sometime later (?), the post locks out and prevents further editing but that appears to be some hours after originally posting.)

Regards,


Jim

P.S. You were pretty close... You put in:

Make it :

And you'll get:

Lars Nielsen reassembling Saltcracker. Traveling from Denmark to be at Speed Week, apparently his palleted bike in jigsaw state is a site to behold. Plagued by government bureaucracy semi-related to Speed Week and with Saltcracker electrical gremlins, Lars is the epitome of never give up and I never once saw him without a smile. He managed take home a record during his trips to The Salt this season. Photo shot by Jim Kelsall, 16th August 2011 at Speed Week on a Canon PowerShot G10.

I was ecstatic to have met Lars unexpectedly after having previously seen some Youtube videos of his supercharged Goldwing. These indeed were instrumental in my buying an early "naked" Goldwing earlier in the year.

His build thread can be found here.

Lars, good luck with your present unfathomable hassles.

Cheers,


Jim

"The jigsaw Indian"...Some assembly required

I am gonna leave that one alone.

Fredvance posted some interesting shots of Lars' Indian.  Lars pitted with us and this is what the Indian looks like when you take it out of its crate.

About artistic picture.......

Bob the webelf done my 2010 season picture in the World of Pork Pie under the Photogallery....maybe you will find some more artwork.....

Also Ray the Rat done a pack of mine from 2010 on his

chevyasylum.com

website...maybe you like to visit him, too

Enjoy

[Seldom Seen Slim]

Good to hear from you, Pork Pie.  Thanks again for the photos of 2010.

Folks, if you don't already know it, PP's photos are up in the Gallery.  Look through them - and if you're interested in one -- like maybe it's a shot of you or your vehicle -- get in touch with PP and he'll work with you to get the size and price and mailing address and such.  Don't steal the image from the Gallery.  Well, go ahead if you want to be pretty lame, but the watermark will be right smack in the middle of the image and that'll let everyone know that you stole the photo without permission.

As 2011 draws to a close, here's a Ferrari #7007 exiting stage right...sitting on so-called "Money Row" allows one a front row seat to the events unfolding on Long Course #1 during Speed Week, the sights and sounds of "fast stuff going fast" and a measured return to the pits or perhaps the hallowed ground of impound. May 2012 bring you your speed desires and may the Salt Gods be appeased.
