    I use Tapa Talk (app you can download to your phone). and it is SOOOO easy. You literally click a pick icon.

    Your picks pop up that are stored on camera

    Select all that apply.

    It ask you to choose size and then click done and post is up.

    Does not do video though.

    Agreed. I went crazy with the Vbulletin format. I'm not really a computer wiz, and it was a huge PITA to post a pic.

    After downloading the Tap Talk app, posting pics couldn't be easier.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Agreed. There has to be a feature they can implement that would resize images automatically.

    Re: Used car dealer detailing

    The lowering of the resolution from 3840 X 2048 to 1008 X 567 means that a lot of the details are no longer showing.

    The rear right bumper cover area was scratched to hell by the vehicle rubbing hard against something.... I spent an hour wet sanding it tonight before it was about to start raining so I had to stop. Still a lot of scratches left so I will have to work on it some more. I don't think there is a panel on the vehicle that doesn't have some RIDS. Lot of work needed before I can do the paint correction and coat the vehicle.

    Would you guys have the decals applied before coating or would you coat over them? I am thinking coating over them will protect them and make them easier to clean.

    What do you guys think?

    Coating after. Protects the decal and helps it adhere to a clean surface beforehand.

    On a matter of principle we should stop referring to any vehicle cleaning work a dealer does as ‘detailing’.

    It’s not. It’s rolling a turd in glitter.

    Agreed. It's not even a basic cleaning. The windows looked like they took Sprayable grease and smeared it all over them. I think it shows a bit in the picture I took. Had to clean them 3 times to get all that gunk out.

    How come you didn't just buy a used cargo van?
