Yes you can manually delete PMs - go to your inbox, mark the PMs you want to delete, bottom right of the page you will see a drop box "mark/unmark as important" select that and it will give you an option to delete.

Welcome Muzzie, you are close but not quite right - I presume you have read how to post images. Fortunately for you, Flickr makes it easy - on the image you wish to post, click the drop box "share" (top centre), select "Grab the HTML/BBCode", copy pasta & you are done, egmuzzie wrote:Hi All,
So I think ive figured the posting images thing!

Nice bike, I particularly like how you got the rear wheel to match the undercoat you chose

"Photos A Hoy" Thanks for the help there.
This is of my Ricardo Elite after i had turned it single by grinding off the derailer hanger and down tube shifter lugs! Sacrilege! also the top tube cable housing holders.
Primed grey and patchy it wasnt my best looking bike. I was after a roady to use in the wet so decided to give it a clean up, figuring a single speed was going to need less maintainence than one with gears.

So this is after I had it sand blasted and primed ($50) and id sprayed it pewter from a can, beautifully I might add. In the process of setting up a front break now and the original drops back on a shorter stem.

The original decals i removed to try reproduce for when its finished.

Yep. We've all done something stupid, though. Undercoat looks nice. Looking forward to the finished images.muzzie wrote:Sacrilege!

on a more serious note, get some really strong gaffer tape.
on a more serious note, he's lucky not to have taken advantage of your private health fund's dental component.
