Every once in a while it happens. Yummi is looking into it this weekend when he gets time. We haven't been able to find out why it happens so far though. Seems to be a random thing. Yummi can likely save at least part of the thread if you PM him. I think he's a bit busy but may get you back up pretty quickly. We do apologize though.

The only thing I can suggest is to not try to upload large pics without resizing first. I always resize mine to about 40% full size. I have had some of my pics lock up a thread but since I have been resizing pics it hasn't happened.

I'v not had to much of a problem until I locked up the Idaho 2016 tread this week.  I cropped a picture in Paint and tried to load it.  It would not load and the page went blank and that's what I get now when I try to get back in.   

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

And don't leave a "reply" window open too long, that can lock a thread up.

I have found cropping a pic doesn't help. Resizing does tho.

Got some stuff done this weekend. I finished the coolant lines, welded seat mounts, built most of the driver side trailing arm, cut out the old shock mounts, installed new C pillars so the shock mounts can be installed. Also started mocking up the shocks. I did a VERY rough sketch on PDF. I will be rounding some corners and cleaning the design up but what do you guys think? I am planning on using 3/16 chromo plate, cutting out the center triangle and installing mesh with round holes in it, and boxing the mount inside where the blue line is on the side prof

I picked up an Ipad mini 4 to use for music and gps with the Leadnav program, a switch pro panel to wire, new RCV 300m 930 cvs and a bunch of other goodies. The UPS guy is getting to know me real good again.
