I am a little slow, had to look at the specific instructions you linked to. Was looking for an icon to post from local storage, which is much easier, for me at least, than posting from a hosting site. Attachments "tab" you said it, but I was poking around for an icon, I participate in a number of car forums, this is a different format than I have seen before. Enough on my technical ineptitude, couple more cars.
Ok, more learning, I wrote in the "file comments" thinking it would show up as picture captions, but I guess it doesn't. The MGB GT was the first car I ever painted. The RX7 was my first modern car after years of driving 69s British sports cars. The Porsche 924 was my first 924. Picked up for $1000, driven home as is 500 miles in 0 degree January with no heater, painted and detailed it, added a bigger front sway bars and a rear bar as well as sticky tires. It ended up looking pretty good and handling pretty well.

Saabs! Lots of Saabs (not the only cars I've had but probably the most interesting).
My first was a 1994 900 SE which I bought upon graduation of College and still have (20 yrs later my son drives it).
I've also owned:
Parts car (1995 Saab 900)
Wife's driver: 1999 Saab 9-5 low pressure turbo
Saab Viggen Convertible (Wrecked, then fixed) (Still have this one)
Parts car for the Viggen Convertible
2000 Saab 9-5 Aero (still have this one, 330,000 miles on it!)
2003 Saab Convertible (still have this, daughter drives it!)
Glad to be here, I like what I see already!

That 924 looks great! Deserves its own thread here I suspect (and the TR6 too for that matter)! I've been meaning to supplement that how-to post with a video showing the nuances of posting pictures, but in the meantime it looks like you are getting the hang of it.
