Title: The Bat finally has a REEK
Post by: The Bat on Wednesday, 09 February, 2011, 01:11:50 PM
Ladies & Gentleman of the Purvis Eureka Forum, it is with great pleasure that I announce the arrival of a bouncing new baby girl to the BAT family ;D. All the way from Mexico O0 (VIC) to the promised land ::) (SA). We have another one on the black stuff in S.A... She is a red F4 with a 1600 suitcase motor. YES you know her, "Shane’s previous project". I need some help to post a pic on the forum! I clicked on the insert image but not real sure what to do. ::)

Hi Bat,

I created a folder for your photos, located here (http://s480.photobucket.com/albums/rr166/eurekacarclub/Member%20Rides/The%20Bat/).

Here's the instructions as posted by philinsa (or where ever the hell he is at this current moment in time...)   :P,

Quote
"YOU WILL NEED TO LOGIN"
Username; eurekacarclub
Password; eureka

You need to browse the site using the "ALBUMS" listed on the left of the page. There are some already posted, EVENTS & MEMBER RIDES

If you would like to post your "RIDE", (for example)
1. go to the "MEMBER RIDES" album, then
2. create another Album (within it) and give it a name, then,
3. post your pics to your Album. Once you have posted your pics,
4. dont forget to "Save,
5. go to Your Album to view them.
6. Then if you wish to advertise them, copy the "url" to your album & post it here so we can all have a look.
    you will find the url by putting you cursor over the Album or pic, highlight it, right click & copy (the code)

Similarly, with an event, go to the Event Album and follow from step 2 above.

Please be carefull with what you do, as it is a public site. If it is abused, chances are it will be removed, or modified to private

You can still post pics here in your messages, but they are restricted in size and we are restricted in the amount of pace available. Remember, the PECCA members are paying for this site.

Thanks

You only have to start at step 3, as I've already created your folder.

Once in your folder, click on Upload photos & videos.

You should get another page. Assuming your photos are on your computer, simply click on Select photos and videos and you'll get a popup window where you can then browse through your computer and select the photos you want to upload. If you hold down the CTRL key on your keyboard you can select multiple photos at a time.

Hope that helps, if not send me a PM. (PM being the little speech bubble under the little 'avatar' photos down the left side of everyones posts).

 ;D

Congratulations "BAT"

Look forward to seeing you in it.

And thanks CYCO for the instruction.
I might add that once the pics are uploaded you can then
- run the mouse over a pic, ( a drop-down box will appear)
- highlight & copy the "image code"
- then past that code in a message in the forum
- do the same agin with the next pic, etc
It won't look like mutch, but when posted, the pic will be there

Oh, by the way, I'm athomeinfrontofthestupidcomputeragain  ;D

Fantastic Bat, hey PM me for some good info on transferring the registration over to SA. 

It looks fantastic.  Running you say, unbelievable ??  I just put silicone brake fluid through mine PM me about that too...

If they need doing, do them once and once only....

Well done, we too (two) are in the Hills, near Gumeracha (myself and my good lady wife that is, Dodgy)  One Reek each both up and running and used as often as time will permit...

Must catch up....   seriously, PM me about the rego and the brakes.....

Cheers,

StReek.

That's ma girl!!! Look after that car Bat...there's alot of blood sweat and tears in that thing. Awesome to see it back on the road in such good nic. Soooo happy to see everything is still original on the car.

Enjoy your ride buddy. If you have half as much fun in it as I did you'll never regret the purchase.

Catch ya
Shane

P.S. I think I found a bunch of photos from when I owned it. I'll try to post em for you. Pretty sure they are at work cause I found an old album and scanned everything.
