martyb748 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Hi guys new to the forum and introducing myself. I'm from Glasgow and have just bought my first manta b2 project! 3.5 V8, manta 400 body kit etc, she's been barn ridden for 15 years so looking a little sad! I'll get some pictures if I figure out how! Cheers Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garymanc Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 hi martin and welcome to the forum you need to upload the image to a web based host service, such as http://www.photobucket.com or http://www.uploadit.org to name but two.You'll need to register first but both are free for simple image hosting, though you can upgrade to do other things for a small fee.Once registered you can begin uploading images Note the "URL" box with it's text (highlighted). Copy this text (left click and drag to select all the text, right click -> copy or CTRL-C). In Uploadit, you get a list. Click the list and copy the http address from the new window.On to the forum, you have two options. You can simply paste the http address and post a link to your picture. Anyone who wants to see it will need to click the address. This is good if you want to post a lot of imagesIf you want to display the actual image, use the "img" tags:http://premium1.uplo...hotobucket4.JPGThat's all there is to it. As you may have figured, you don't actually post a picture but point the forum software to a net address which it converts into an actual picture.Hope this helps.

MANTAMAN Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Now that's an impressive amount of bird shit! How can you see the chassie rails from this shot !! Hello Martin and welcome to our club, i think you have a terrific buy there, a lot of people set about converting thier manta to this spec & go out & spend a fortune on componants, you got a whole load of great bits & a Manta in one go ! As my quip above suggests you have to go on a rust hunt, all Manta's have one of two types of chassie rails, ones that have rusted through and ones that are about to rust through !!! You are in a good part of the UK for Manta's, this club has a strong area group in Scotland, CLAN MANTA ! there are many Manta addicts your way.
