Billy, once you upload it to the server - open the picture you want to link and right click on the picture. Then select PROPERTIES and then copy the URL from that window and paste it into your message here on the forum with the IMG tags. It's easier done than said.

[cowboy]

Thanks agin Carl

I got it now you have address and the URL all together.

If one of the moderators could delete the other smiles post I would be thankfull I could not find out how to get rid of it my self.

John I will do the T/C next weekend as its 11:20 now and I have to be up at 4:00 am tommrow.

Cowboy,
Your right it's all in the smiles of kids. I had several ask if they could take pictures on my Cub at the show this past weekend. They liked just being up on the tractor while their parents took pictures. It was a lot's of fun

Took three of my girls for a tractor ride this weekend, and they were all smiles

It's not something I like to do very often because I'm very aware of all the wheels and belts and fans spinning without covers on them.

Of course, given that, it's amazing any of US lived to this age having grown up around all that equipment, but I guess that's just livin' in the 2000's. Heck, they can't even ride a bike or a go-kart or a scooter without a helmet on these days. Lord only knows the things *I* did without wearing a helmet.

Ron and Cowboy...you guys are SO RIGHT! It's all about the kids (in ALL of us). I've seen guys at tractor shows get all bent outta shape cause some small, bright-eyed kid wanted to climb up on their NEW, show-room painted tractor! My feelin'...If you're not willin' to share your passion and your hobby...How are ya gonna git others interested in it? Life is all about makin' GREAT MEMORIES! Next time you're at a show, or just ridin' around your neighborhood...MAKE SOME MEMORIES HAPPEN for SOMEONE

Thanks guys

Just got home from another week working out of town. My niece had so much fun out here the weekend those pictures were taken she decided she wants her birthday party here. So it will be a busy day cleaning house for sunday. It will be her big 7th. Shure to be fun. Need to unload the big trailer so the cub can do some hay rides for the ninteen kids that are sopposed to come over.

Allen I think we were tougher back then. Although two of my great uncles were operators and neither of them had all there fingers.

Yep Country helping and sharing makes life worth living. At one time I felt having money made me important and would make me happy. I've learned some since then and I'm broke but happy.

Cowboy,
Here's a co-workers boys on my Cub at the show this past weekend. He said they didn't want to get off when it was time to go!



Post some pictures of the party next week when you have time.

Hey Ron...Those two kids look like they're havin' fun and lovin' your Cub tractor! I'm flattered by the GREAT way your McCormick-Deering Sickle Knife Grinder turned out...SUPER JOB Ron !

Hey Cowboy...Be sure to post some photos of thos 19 youngins on your hay ride ...they'll probably be MORE SMILES and FUN than I used ta have skinny-dippin with my boyhood friends on a hot summer's day in the creek!

Great picture Ron.

While I like looking at pictures of all the tractors. When a picture has somone in it it tells a story And a picture with kids smiling is the Best


I have always felt toys are for adults so they do not have to spend time with their kids. After all we are all so busy trying to get ahead all we have time for is work so we can live the good life later Kids need somone to just be there and spend time with them. How many times have you seen kids have more fun with the box than the toy I belive spending time with them makes them proud and self confident as then they know they are worth spending time with not just money.

Ron, as with everyone else here I am proud to know ya

Billy

ps I will share pictures as I get them

pps thanks agin lildog and everyone involved with setting up the picture posting site

Hey Country,
I decided to not paint the sharpner, just leave it as is. It draws a lot of attention and I hope to get it mounted on the "real wheel " soon. I found that at a local hardware store with other junk.

Cowboy I look foward to seeing those hay-ride pictures when you get them!

Ron
