Naw we didnt pay top dollar for everything but prices add up quickly even the simple stuff like a seat. The seat was 129.99 at princes auto, It's adjustable

When ever I try to upload a pic it says 'file transfer has failed' It does it everytime

[kibble]

check the file size, there's file size limitations when you're uploading pics. If you go past the limit you'll get that error. You may have to scale them down if that's the problem.

[jr dragster Tyler]

How do I scale the pictures down?

[kibble]

Ummm, well it depends what program you'll use to do it. You can use paint, but it's really limited. Open up the pic and then re-save it by going to "File" then "save as". make sure that JPG is selected and rename it so you don't overwrite the original, unless you want to. The saved pic will be a smaller size even though nothing was changed. If that doesn't work or it's still too big, use the "Stretch/skew" option under the "image" menu and in the area where it says "Stretch" enter in a value less than 100%, say 75 for each one so that the picture stays proportional. Then save it using "Save as" making sure jpeg is selected.

If you're using Photoshop... well if you use photoshop you should probably already know how to do it.

I don't know how to do it on any other programs because I usually only use photoshop.

hey jr done any more to your kart,you never told me where you got the rims and tires.
