Hello again to all those proffering technical assistance with uploading jpeg images onto the thread. Can I please make clear that I use a digital camera to take the photos, and then transfer them from the cameras memory card onto the hard drive of my home computer. So what I need is you to give me an idiot proof guide to resizing the images stored on my computer in order that the file size is not to large to be accepted by this forum for upload. Therefore Tapatalk is I assume of no help to me
as that is only a Smart phone or tablet app ? Sorry to struggle over this, I could teach you to fly a RAF Typhoon, but find this
stuff a bit of a puzzle. :? Best wishes, Dave.

I also do this and when I have processed my photos resize them for Internet use to 1400 pixels on the longest side. I then upload them to photobucket. From there I can access them via the photobucket app on my phone or tablet and download them to my phone or tablet's camera roll.

As I always use the Tapatalk app to view forums it's then so easy to attach the photos in any posts I make.

Hi Everyone, At the especial request of MDrizzle the following are a few pics of my 'Everyday' car, a Jaguar X Type 2.5 Permanent 4WD with 31000 miles on the clock, the former property of Michael Owen, who some of you might have just heard of ! The car was constructed specially for Michael whilst he was playing for Liverpool FC, and he became a World Ambassador
for Jaguar cars for several years, no doubt remunerated very substantially for his endorsement of their products ! After a year of ownership of the Jag, Michael consigned the car to Sotheby's Auctioneers where it was sold for £30000, with the proceeds
going to Michael's favourite charity. The buyer (a Multimillionaire) donated the Jag to The Jaguar Enthusiasts Club, who then
used the car as the clubs raffle prize, and I purchased the car after the lucky winner decided to sell !
I not only have the Jaguar but also a signed football boot of Michael Owens in a special mounted display board, that was presented by Michael during his time at Manchester United. The Jag presently sports a UTD registration plate.
Sadly this special car, together with memorabilia, (signed boot) and magazines depicting Michael with the car, will have to be sold following my impending purchase of the RCZ !!! Hope that you like the pics. Best wishes, Dave.

Hi Dave
she's a Mercury Grey Mk 2 Diesel ( I'm a pug diesel fan- had several over years, starship miles and no aggro) )
GT spec with dark grey full (real ) leather interior 19" technical grey alloys
Also added the super cool laser RCZ door lights - you just have to get those!
I have pics but so far have klutzed every time I try to upload them.
Will have another go.
cheers
Mark

Hahaha...count yourself lucky it's only drizzle. I'm fairly certain that, judging by the weather up here, it's the end of the world. Might be time for me to trade in for an ark.

Also, thank you so much for the uploads. What a fantastic car and what an effort to create something unique by Jaguar!! :thumbup:

I wonder, when Michael Owen was driving that car, do you think he was ever stopped by the police and asked " Is this your car sir?" :wtf:
