Hey charlie, thanks for the photo forum! Its great to see new pictures floating around.

I do have a minor complaint about the message board though....although i understand you wish to protect your photos, i cannot use my right mouse button in the forums.

I typically use this to open up each thread in a new window, as well as cut-and-paste various messages into quotes. I have to disable javascript to do this...

I hate to complain about this wonderful service you are providing, but thats just my input :D

Yes Charlie, how come the Anti-download JScript is inserted in every page load?

Should be just for Photo Gallery forum only? ;)

I've been doing my best to guess the proper place to put photos. But I seem to get an email back on every one, which says, in so many words, "NO, NO, NO, you put it in the WRONG place, THIS is were you SHOULD have put it, slap the back of your hand, and don't do it again." (I'm paraphrasing);)

Any hints to make placement easier? Or should I not care and just put them all in my own gallery?

I originally intended the "Owner Cars" section to be used only for pictures of owners' cars, but I never posted any guidelines detailing what should go where. Everyone has been posting so many good pictures, I'm thinking about opening up some other categories (i.e. advertising) for scanned in images and ads, etc. I didn't mean for the e-mail notices to be rude -- they're just meant to let you know that your pictures have been moved.

Keep up the good work! I like all of the photos! :yes:
