I have just spent 1 1/2 hours right up a complete thread on how I built 74 thunderbird nascar with custom made plastic chassis
when I went to preview my post before submitting it I got auto logged out
so I lost the whole thread
I am so mad

Oh pal, I feel your pain. I once spent an hour crafting just the right commentary about something I really cared about, and the damned storm killed my electricity at the moment I submitted it. When the lights came on, I checked, hoping against hope that it wasn't lost- it was.

it most certainly sucks alright
but I have gone and done some more painting on the house renovations
so I have now calmed down and I will redo it
the worst part is all the pics are on Photobucket which is a pain to work with
I now use dropshots

Sometimes I think Photobucket goes out of their way to make the free site a pain in the butt. Okay, I KNOW they do. I'm just about ready to dump them.
