Is there a way to post pics in the gallery that will show up as they do in a post, by this I mean using another site to host the pic so it wiil come up instantly. If not, can we make a makeshift gallery, by starting a new thread titled gallery on which we can add pics, then every so often either edit the post to ad new pics or better add a new post to the thread with new pics. This might be confusing or maybe I am doing something wrong but for me it seems the gallery as it won''''t work, i have to go to the gallery then sort of open files blindly hoping it is something I''''ll like, it would be easier to simply scroll down a page as follows to see pics. I''''ll try to make an example here.
This is one of my favorites mainly because when we took this it was dark out, no flash was used
and I didn''''t think it would amount to anything, it also was taken near a crutch factory I worked at
as a kid, and earned the money to buy my wife her wedding rings, we were 15 and 16 when we met,
16 and 17 when I worked there, and 19 and 20 when we married, everyone knew it wouldn''''t work out
back then, now they all knew it would work out
Again this is a cool pic because of the lighting, by the way those purple lights near the bridge
way off in the background, are close to where the 1st picture was taken
this pic follows one of the rules for painting, and photography, the rule of 3s, the top two thirds
has nothing to do with the main part of the pic, the bottom 1/3 is obviouslt the main part of the
pic
This pic was taken just before the Readylift levleing kit was installed
This was the next morning after the the Readylift level kit was installed
this is a different angle, stillin the area where the tree was in the backgroud, my son liked the dead end sign, mainly
because with the Hummer, there really are no dead ends, unless there are a group of police watching you take pictures ;)
This is actually a different picture, I thought it was cropped, but he says he took one with the entire truck another with
the truck cut off, soemthing else he read in that fancy picture taken book of his.
Just a cool angle taken with the roof lights on
a nice pic taken with a cheap digital camera
another pic with the same camera, this was taken to show the smoked markers
this was taken for the ladder, and obviously before the taillight guards were put on
I think this is different
the dream grill
Anyway... hopefully this is a nice way to make a gallery, and if i wanted to add a pic I could just edit the post, or better
add a new reply, this way we would all know new pics were available. If this is totally wrong in your opinon let me know. I think the good thing is it doesn''''t take up much space on the forum because it is a link to another site, it is easier to view the pics and could help us get the ROTM going again with an easier way of checking out the rides, hint hint... lol

Sweet pics!
The forum software has a snafu..........been that way too long!!!!!! So the gallery feature is messed up, just like the polling, and a bunch of other small styff. We are on the list to be updated, as soon as the net heads figure out their chit and get it done. Sure hope it is very soon....... like yesterday would be fine.

Until they get things right this seems to work, it’s a nice way to share pics, here is one that was up for a little while, it was one of the 1st good pic taken, and reminded me of a trip to the pizza shop, in which my daughter waited in the car, (it was carry out) anyway we have all window tint totally blacked out, anyway two older people left the pizza shop, and the man told his wife, "Nice Hummer, he probably has a little house!" I''m still not sure if this was a euphemism or if he really thought my house was small, in either case, I found it funny, a week later we''re camping and I had to have a pic of the tiny house we stayed in, behind our H3, as you can see in the pic, there was very little done to the Hummer at the time, the rims were still stock, the handles we''re on the hood vent, no roof lights, taillight guards, or readylift, just s tiny house. One more thing about this pic it was taken with a cheap digital camera. Not bad for a 100 camera. The really cool pics on the other post were taken with my son’s camera about 1200 or more. Anyway here''s another pic. I hope to take some new picks maybe get some shots of the inside, I''d also like to see some other pics...
Also my wife and I formed a foundation for disabled police, we want to put together a Hummer section and want to judge them for awarss, the thing is, how to you rate them to separate the Hummer that was modified by its owner, as a posed to the Hummer that was put in a shop to have it modified, while I think both are great and cool to go look at, I think the home mods deserve a different kind of credit, do they typically have two categories for each vehicle type.
One last question, if we use this method for sharing pics, do you think it would be better to add a pic to the 1st post, or should we ad a reply as I did here to show off a new pic.

Here are some dream mods I''d like to do, one or one of the others. I have always like the old panel wagons, and later the full size van something in the area of a 65 to 69 chevy van, not the lat 70''s and 80''s those were too large for my liking, basically taking out a window, both windows, or both windows and perhaps the driverside doors, or both back side doors, the following pics, photoshop-ed would give us an idea as to how a windowless Hummer might look
1st the one window version
Then the 2nd version with no back side windows, but still a side door, if I were to have this done, I would probably seriously concider leaving a passenger side door, but loosing the driverside door, or perhaps loosing both back side doors, and keeping only the back hatch door
The next vehicle has no back side doors at all
Personally I like the windowless, doorless Hummer, it looks great to me, even though I can tell it is photoshoped, it still gives me an idea of what this would look like, and tells it would be worthwhile body fender job.
What do you think?

I like this one, does look like the old panels. Cool!
You are fine adding a pic in a new post, but you can always add one to a prior post with an edit too.

You should see it with the darkened fenders, I think it looks like an old paddy wagon, or panel truck, super cool

If I do this I would probaly stick to the old school methods, and do this to the driver side, on the passenger side keep the door, and block out the window behind the rear passenger door, as kids we had several vans growing up, and most of them had no windows down the dirvers side, th eonky rear door was on the passenger side, and the only windows were on that door, and the rear door, it does look pretty cool, and when you don''t have a lot of money to put into something body work is the leat expensive mod to do yourself, follow this up with a fresh coat of paint, no color change and paint can even be gotten fairly cheap.

I was saying that when you close in the windows and give it the panel look, it kind of reminds me of the truck in the movie Jeepers Creepers.

It''''s all good; I was hit in the head once so I get lost easy; I need nav just to find my way home sometimes, and the compass has saved my @$$ more times than I can count... I wouldn''''t buy a car without one....
The Jeepers truck does look cool, but seems it would tip easy...
I found an old warehouse that used to load dump trucks with rocks, dirt etc. it had one of those giant ramps the dumptrucks park on oneside a bucketlift, diffrent dumptruck or something drives up the ramp and fills the truck, it goes about 25 feet up at about a 45 to 60 degree angle it was an easy climb for the hummer h3 and a lot of fun, there was a lot of old gravel piles to drive though and over, wish I could find some better off roading in the area though

This pic does show the difference between a HUMMER, and a JEEPer, BTW are all JEEPers CREEPers... ok I''''m out, just trying to make ya laugh
Why is it that Jeep owners act like asses toward us, I''''ve had both a jeep and the hummer, to me they both just off road vehicles, both have there limitations, but will do more than most other vehicles when it comes to being off the road, the other day a goof in a Jeep went out of his way to make sure I didn''''t get over a lane, lucky for me I ended up not needing to get over, which seemed to tick him off worse, his lane was running slow so I past him and headed toward my exit, he did a sort of mad man thing ot get out of his lane, run up behind me to where his lane cleared then floor it so he could pass me before I turned all the way on to the exit, all the while blowing his horn and giving us the bird. I didn''''t as much as look at this guy until he started acting a fool, my neighbor has a Jeep we joke alot about the two but work on each others trucks, and have no real problem, hopefully Hummer owners don''''t act as foolish in return, because from my point of view, and I''''m sure those around me didn''''t think it looked as cool as he was hoping, unless he just didn''''t care how he looked. my neighbor and I tease in fact i was going to buy him a "Hummer Recovery Team" sticker for his Jeep, but now I wonder if what we though of as a joke wouldn''''t just help to fuel this thing.. I may just say screw it and do what I want, let the fools be fools, it was cunfusing for my daughter to see a stranger hating on us apearently because of our vehicle

Ok, this is what it would look like if my H3 could dream, she would be in the cold area dreaming of the warm hills and rocks of AZ.
Again just being silly playing with CorelDraw X4 to do Photoshop tricks picture in a picture
