Anyone want a fuch?

I saw this and thought that it was funny, but sad. Here's what you get for driving in the snow with polished fuchs j/k. http://www.wreckedexotics.com/newphotos/other/other854.shtml

Also, I saved the photo in 'My Pictures', but the server says it needs to have a .jpg, .gif extention, but it already has a .jpg extension! Why is the server rejecting my photo (using the Upload Now feature)?

not sure if this is what happened or not
you have to be careful about what's before the .jpg
no spaces (which can be easily overlooked) or other characters, pelican doesn't like 'em...

the photo was kinda funny in a quirky "well poop look at that !" kinda way .. (I'd have said sad though if it had been mine)

Matt, you don't have to upload an image from the Net. Just use the IMG feature of the reply button or bracket images with [/IMG]file.jpg[IMG] but reverse them. I had to do it backwards to show them.

Zeke and rexav8r, thanks for the info on how to place a photo on the post.

Something that dissapoints me about Wrecked Exotics is that I found this 911 under the category "Regular Cars", not "Exotic Cars" where it was supposed to be!!!

I have an old set of one piece BBS wheels that I used living in Germany for winter driving. Could care less what happens with them and had some very agressive mud and snows on them. A 911 with good tires is a lot of fun in the snow!

Now that looks like the perfect candidate for some RS flares and some serious backdating!

Well, if it wasn't before, it's 'finished' now!
