all i ever do is open the pic in MS Paint and then go to "Image" at the top then i go to "stretch/skew" and then resize it until i think its small enough. theres probably a better way, but it always works for me

go to Microsoft Paint and click "open", find the picture you wanna resize, then when the picture is there click on the tab "image" then click on "stretch/skew". it shows height and width in 100%, to downsize the picture just make it a smaller percent for both height and width...for instance to make the picture half the size of the original make them both 50%

edit: make sure to SAVE afterwords too lol

Right, assuming you use Windows XP, and have a JPG or BMP image availible.

Right click the image file

Select 'Edit' from the menu

Select the 'Image' menu, then select 'Stretch/Skew'

Change the Horizontal and Vertical size of the image by any percentage (make sure it's the same change each way)

Select the 'File' menu, and select 'Save as...'

Save it as a JPEG (.jpg) image

when i got the car the paint was so oxidized that it was chachol gray and you could rub your finger on it and your finger would turn black so i buffed th whole car with buffing compound and the paint is alright but i wanna go red. But i don't think it's a bad start for me being 15 and not having a whole lot of money.

I'm 25, here is a pic of my two babies



I also have a 92 B4C black hardtop L98/A4 but I dont count it because I bought it specifically to restore and sell for profit (to build motor for the green car). I also have a 92 Z28 white hardtop L98/A4 here but I'm building that one for my girlfriend so I dont count that one either.

Just a side note: Color changes on GM's can look very tacky due to the fact that pretty much every damn piece of the car was painted body color from the factory. I've seen a lot of color changes that look great, that is until you open the hood.

As per the original topic (which I just realized I never answered) I'm 19. Even if I had a digital camera ATM, I wouldn't post any pics of my current POS Thunderbird daily-driver, simply because I'm damn embarrased just to own the thing.

Right now the problem for me is not money, I have a little under 4K to spend, it's finding a decent third-gen to get myself into. Up here the performance market for old-school performance cars, and tuner imports are both great, but the "in-between" cars like the 5.0 'Stang and the 3rd-gen Camaro are harder to find in decent shape.
