Were you Dr. Frankenstein or somebody else?
Posting shots is easy as long as they are no more that 500 x 500 pixels and less that 35k in size. Just hit the 'Upload Attachment' button before you post the message and follow the bouncing ball.
Looking forward to seeing George and the Capri.
Cheers

nope, I just wont budge

maybe I could sent it to someones email and they could post it. It just always says that it needs to be Smaller the 500X500 but I made 20X20 and it was a 10k and it still wont go. The rick forum hates my computer....or vice-versa

i know i was able to post a while ago....but not any more

Alex, I hope you don't mind that I went to the webpage, copied the picture, and "shmoozed" it for posting here:
I had to convert it from GIF format to JPG format, crop it, and then resize it; the one above is 298x300, 22kb. Maybe the problem you are having is trying to upload it in GIF format. Try converting it to JPG before resizing it.

Here's the one of George.
Didn't do anything with it, Alex, except load it into MS Paint and check the attributes. It was already JPEG and under the file size & pixel limits. Went straight in!
Cheers

That double pickguard monstrosity would look a tad better without the guards "tabs" going so far under the pickups.....
Still "butt-ugly".

Thanks howard and Gary. I just dont think my computer works with this site........The Picture of the rick was actually done in paintbrush...I dont think it looks that bad! just an Idea
Does anyone know what model that is that george is holding>? it appears to me to be a Capri 360/6.....but I could be wrong

Oops, sorry Alex.

I thought that someone had actually done it to a '60s guitar!

Too much guard, not enough guitar. Sort of a Bozo-the-clown, Ferrari with wide whitewalls effect.
Here it is in proper proportion, though...

Sorry, Alex, I thought the same thing as John Williams--that this was an actual guitar that somebody did up.
No harm done, providing you accept my apologies. It is harmless flights of fancy such as your efforts that give rise to more satisfying creative results! But I think you can see what we're getting at here...Keep on Brushin'!
