    Picture

    Well to start with, it must be a bitmap...that's huge for a pic, period. Open it in MS Paint, and then just select "save as", and choose jpeg for the file type, and whatever name you want, you can keep it the same since they're actually two different files at this point. This will probably help...

    Cobra's Cobra's Cobra's everyone says get a cobra

    I beleive it's a simple matter of what you're willing to spend, and what exactly you like to do. If $$ isnt a problem, and you dont mind the higher cost in maintenence etc etc, and you want a much faster car, dragging that is, then, the cobra is right. However, if you're the type that just likes...

    Best free prog ever, for pics is "Irfan View". It can handle any file extension, and you can resize/sample, crop/cut paste etc etc it's badass. And very simple, right to the point, small in size maybe 8mb, and you can find it to download anywhere, also I recommend this prog to everyone, it's a...

    White Letter tires on our cars???

    I've seen tires for sale, with yellow lettering, in fact on a number of occasions. I never bought a set, but a friend did, for his '87 GT. They were 225/55/16 I think, either 55 or 50 he had. They're all nascar 'type' that i've seen, nothing else. And I would'nt want them on my car, I just like...

    HELP!!!!!!!!

    I've never sprayed any of my car's under the hood, always in fear of running into a problem. The most I do is maybe gunk a little, when first getting a vehicle, but, for the most part I clean it all little by little and by hand. Little more work, but, it'll be cleaner, and wont run the risk of...

    Look at this F-150.

    There was actually a Tonka truck F-150 Concept, it looks like he tried to create it on his own, and he did a poor job, but he tried.

    The legend of the 5.0 will never die.

    I've beaten too many LS1's at the track to have any respect for them, I dunno, just me. But, my capri is always laughed at, the ugly duckling wannabe mustang....lol, it's sooo much fun smoking everyone with it, it's sooo light, and, just flies...and with a stock 5.0 bottom end to boot. Against...

    The legend of the 5.0 will never die.

    Time go's on, things change, technology has made available 300hp 4 cylinders, most of which kill a stock 5.0. But, in my mind it's unfair to compare something so new to something so old, and if they really want to, then they have to compete with the aged 5.0 and it's aftermarket, period. If not...

    Any of you guys musicians?

    I am an amateur Producer, Hip Hop mostly. I have a unique style, and I compose all of my music. No steeling melodies, I mean yes, I sample, but only sounds, never a full loop, not more than what I need to use the sound, actually, 99% of my sampling is off of movies, sound effects, stuff like...

    GT500 vs Vette

    Hah, yeah. But, hey, for a 3.8L, and the gearing....just sick Alot of things about this car are just....amazing. I've driven one very like it, same drivetrain, not the same year, and, well, there's just no way to explain what it's like. This car is nothing like the 500/vette! And maybe that's...

    1998 Mach 460, Why isn't it as loud as the 99-04 "mach 460"?

    Other than mine, the only other i've really actually listened to and messed with enough to judge, was a '98 GT. And, well, my '99 sounds a hell of alot better. Actually, it sounds fantastic, I dunno if all sound good, but, the previous owner of my car before me ( 57 yr old guy/original owner)...

    GT500 vs Vette

    I just dont know what to say about the 500 anymore, it just keeps getting worse the more I think about it. The weight.....seriously.....i'll defend ford, beyond what any one of us would call reasonable, but, this is just absolutly pathetic, and it pisses me the f u c k off. What the hell could...

    funny ricer story to brighten your Saturday

    I have a '97 Explorer, mint, got it from a friend for 3500, with a brand new tranny in it ( He liked to floor it from a stop, allllll the time). I love it, although it's the 4.0 OHV engine, I kinda like the torque, no way I would complain, the gearing is awesome, perfectly fitting for the...
