G'day, been a member for a while, trying to workout how to post. Hopefully this is it.
I am on my second Patrol, had a second hand 1989 GQ for a few years until in 1998 I bought a new GU with the 2.8 TDI. It's my favourite money waster. Have done a significant number of mods and additions over the last 14 years. Now has full air suspension with electronic control, Bullet 6.5 Supercharged diesel and 4L80E conversion, plus all the usual, front & rear bars, lights, drawers etc. Scary when it went over the weighbridge at 2.9 T empty.

Love some of the stories and build ups.

Queenslander, almost Victorian now, after the last 22 years in Vic, Wodonga and now Melbourne.

I can't help on Ipad as I don't have one

on the pc the only real trick is to make sure that pictures are under 1.9MB in file size before uploading, anything over won't upload. Most people just use Photobucket and just link the pics.

Send a PM or post a new thread in the help section if you get stuck, there is also threads in the help section explaining how 2 upload pics.

Cheers

Photobucket is one of the ways to download photos from your computer to make them forum friendly, so you can post them.

Many of us use the photosize 640 x 480, which fills up the screen - just right.

Welcome and take care out there.
