Did some washing this weekend, all at home for a few brief minutes, so took a couple of shots.162916301631163216331634

My favorite it is the SG reflecting from the IR.

Well you need to shrink the image so its 125x125 for portrait and I don't remember what the max size for sig can be but most likely smaller than those photos. If you have photoshop this is very easy task to do

I'm not at home, Bruce. The signature max is 800x250. If it's bigger than that it will not work.

K you probably took that picture with a nice camera which means your photo size is around 1000+ x 1000+ depending on settings. However in order to display a sig you gave to get it to 800x250. So go to google and look up resize my photo for free and then click any one of the many sites that let you do that. They will ask you to choose a file and after that you will specify what size you want (800x250) and then you need to save the new resized image back to your computer and then all should be good.

John,
Thanks for that. I know its a 17mm socket for the lugnuts and once I get the wheel off then I can figure out what the next step is. But this electronic stuff, I'm a mech engr, it scares me. Thankfully my 14 year old has been the EE/IT guy for the household for several years -- set up the wireless router, printer sharing btwn the 3 printers on each floor, etc, he's been handling since he was about 10. In fact, young Brett was suggesting photo angles today, told me to capture the SG reflection in the IR. He brought out a stool for me to stand on and take a few photos. He's my retirement ticket.

John would you mind downsizing the reflection photo? The SG is supposed to be sold this week, so that one means something to me -- we'll still have the IR but the SG will be a memory from the past.

I know why I'm selling the SG, and absolutely know why its the right thing to do, but cleaning and driving it today I started having second & third thoughts. No worries, Matt, its yours. But Matt promise two things - (1) take care of it, I'll wonder about it from 1500 miles away, and (2) when your situation dictates separating from it, give the mafia first shot, okay.

Ryan,
No kings here, just an infatuation with the ZHPs and not enough self control. Was going to say an understanding wife but I get my butt chewed on each new acquisition, so that's not true. Luckily, the IR conv is her toy, so not too much complaining from that one.

I am happy to help, I recently learned this pic stuff and know it can be confusing. Sounds like your son is on the right track.

Here ya go friend.

GSEN820,
They say the 2 happiest days are when you get it and when you release it. That was true on the front end but I'm pretty sure I'm going to shed a tear when I see her go on the transporter, she's a sweet, sweet ride and all sorted out.

Great shots of the fleet, Bruce. I'm sure you'll miss the SG, but all good things must come to an end.
