There is a file size limitation when attaching. Before you attach any pictures, make sure that the file is less than 2MB and smaller than 1280 x 1024. If you verify your pictures before attempting to attach or download them you won't receive any errors. There is nothing the techies need to fix, we simply need to educate our users. ;)

About the pictures. The pictures are resized to 1024 x 768 and the file sizes are between 689KB 738KB each. They're all about this size when resized. I'm no IT expert but these sizes seem to be within the specs? I tried again but just had the same message. Anyway I can try again tomorrow, got cars to fix.

I had to open each picture individually. Multiple uploads were the problem.

I think these might be a couple of your pics:
brake assembly (1).jpg
brake%20assembly%20%282%29.jpg

I don't know why are having problems uploading the pics. They are making it to the server just fine. I don't find any errors in the logs that would indicate there is a problem on the forum's side. The next time you get an error it might be helpful if you could take a screen shot of the error and send it to me.

Yep they were some of my pictures! hahaha, looks like they've been on a bit of a trip to cyberspace and back :lol: , I will keep trying, it's all a bit strange and i'm wondering if it's a connection issue or not. Strange things are happening though because I followed G60Michaels tips for posting multiple images and it worked fine to start with now it's just not happening, even when I try 1 at a time. I will get a screen shot and email it to you if it happens again, right now I need to get ready to pick up the car trailer for the new beast, will see if I can get a picture up later.
thanks for the help Riverpatrol.

trying the pictures, here is one from picking up the last Patrol. The new one is still down at the yard, we had a decent storm last night and the ground was too soggy to get the forklift at it. Will try again on the weekend if we don't have any more rain.

Looks pretty sturdy from here. So you're going for 3 Patrols now? :D

Yep, we've got a 3rd old Patrol lined up for the weekend with a bit of luck, so between the GQ's and the 60's there will be 5 on the place.

Yes, it had dried out enough for us to drag the new patrol out of the recycling yard on Sunday morning. Found out about it after a tip off I received and scored it for $100. It now rolls. There was a spare gearbox and transfer case in the back along with a pretty rusted up instrument panel that still had the 2 dials in it along with a few switches and light globes. The car is mainly complete and the engine turns over by hand, the old bloke rekons it used to run when he received it. Anyway, there's a lot of rust in it but we should be able to get plenty of stuff to help with the red shorty, maybe even put the motor in the blue one one day. First thing we'll take off is the front left brake backing plate so that we can replace the one on red shorty that has a broken pad tension cam.
Will put up some pics another time, need to go now.
Cheers
