I took film pics last summer and have no digital files. So I took a digital picture of the 4x6 print sitting on my kitchen counter with a handheld digital camera. Crude and probably why the images are soft.
My first time uploading the any pics. I don't see how to get the pic on the post. I uploaded and copied each but I saw nowhere to paste. So I copied the URL and pasted that into the post. Lots of back and forth. What am I doing wrong?

A little help for my friend. SY is one of my favorite colors. There was a SY 993 Turbo in San Diego that was for sale last week that I had to flight with myself not to go look at. I'll PM you info on how to post photos through Photobucket. I lightened yours up a bit. Not bad for photos of photos!

MPG - Thanks for the offer. I have a model to match my car already.

Chuck - Thanks for the help!

The original photos are very good clarity, so I lost lots in the process.

It looks kind of 'goldish' - is that a special order P-color? Or Speed yellow albeit darker in photos??? I like the color in your avatar.

The avatar shoot is pretty acurate color. Remember it is in mottled shade and that is deepening the color. The other shots are lighter than actual. It does seem to be darker/deeper than atan's car. It's a deep yellow and very cheerful on a cloudy day. My wife says so. I am not one to draw attention to myself ( some think SY is a look at me color) and yet this color seems so right, fun and sporty.

I like the look much better after I removed all the bumperettes and painted the spoiler. The car looks more modern and clean.
