Good Ol' Independence Day is around again and I'm sure there are some folkes around here who have a fat fendered friend participating in some of the celebrations.

I'll start with my '52:

 

Now this is a great thread idea. I look forward to seeing the rides that spice up 4th of July parades all across the country.

 

Sorry, not a parade truck but just another old Ford truck. It carries these patriotic decals all the time.

 

Can't figure out how to post a picture. Too stupid! Made an album but only get the url to show up in the post, What am I doing wrong?

 

Here's a tutorial Bob put together: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/6...-pictures.html

Or you can set up a Photobucket page and link it in your post.

 

Here's my parade truck. Do I need "photobucket" to put the actual picture in the post like you guys do? If so, how does that work? Thanks

Welcome to FTE! That's a beautiful truck!

Go to Photobucket and sign up for a free account. Then create an album for your truck. Upload any pics you want to post on FTE to that album. Have this album open on your computer when you want to post pics on FTE.

While you're making a post on FTE, select the pic you want to post from your Photobucket album. When the large version of the pic is open, right mouse click on it and select "View Image Info". The image info will be highlighted and will look something like this:
http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...ghtsafter1.jpg

Copy that highlighted info (right click / copy).

When you have the spot in your post where you want the pic to be placed, select the "Insert Image" icon at the top of the post (looks like a mountain) and paste (right click / paste) the image info you copied in the highlighted box (just shows "http://" when it opens).

Your pic will be placed in the post.

Hope that helps.

It seems awkward, but whenever you "insert a picture" to one of these threads, the forum is looking for the picture somewhere on the web (which is always available) rather than from somewhere on your hard drive (which isn't always available).

Memorial Day Car Show...

 

Love that Firetruck!

Did someone say "parade truck" ?

Not in the Independance Day Parade but had it in the St Patricks Day parade this Spring.

 

Here's Jake's parade picture. You just have to add a [img] before and a [/img] after the link to the pic.





Lookin' good!

 

Here is my 54. Very patriotic.

 

That is one beeeuuuttttiiifffuuull truck, thanks for the pic's.

 

Thank you, Sir..

 

Lets dust off this thread for this year!
