The Tbird Virtual Fest Power Show

[dgs]

I couldn't find the instructions on what to send where, can you list them again? I've got a bunch, most are in my gallery. Main gallery here, suspension rebuild here. I also have a gallery of T'birds I've seen at shows and other images I've come across here. I've got more I need to add to that gallery.

All those images are reduced for the web, I have higher resolutions if you want them.

Hi DGS!

The instructions have been posted here below in other posts. Anyone who wants to contact me by email can do so by clicking on my user name which should take you to the User CP section. Go to the Contact Info section to the right side of my info. There you will find the link to "Send an email to YellowRose, or something like that. Just above the link to send me a PM. You can click on that email link and you can send me an email. Now in your case, since you gave me the links to several of your picture web pages, I will look at those. If I need more pictures, I will let you know.

Here is what would like to have. Pictures sized to 1024 x 768. I can reduce larger pictures than that. I would like shots of what your Bird looked like "Before" restoration and "After". One shot of the front, one of the side, one of the engine, one of the back, and at least one good shot of the whole interior, if you have them. If not, just send me what she looks like now. One shot of the front, one of the side, one of the back, one of the engine, and preferably, one good shot of the front interior and one good shot of the back interior.

If you dont have that many shots, just send me a few of what ya have and I will put in what ya send me.

The Tbird Virtual Fest Power Show

I was asked if overseas members can send me pix of their Tbirds. Of course you can. In fact, after Alexander's Tbirds, "Penelope" from Down Under leads off! This show is open to any '58-'66 Tbird owner who wants people to see their Birds. The intent is for it to be shown at future car shows across the country so others can see our Tbirds and what we have done with them. Many of us can't make those shows, so this way, others can see our virtual Show & Shine at these shows.

I am adding your Tbirds in the order you send pix to me. There are about a half dozen of you or more who have now sent me pix. Some of you own or owned multiple Birds, and I have posted those also.

If anyone has any pix of Alexander's two Birds, I need them. I tried to use the two thumbnails under his signature, but they do not expand worth a flip. I need something that is around 600x800 or something around there. I can expand smaller pix to a certain limit, but if they are two small, they diffuse and do not look good.

I wish I could show you the show, but it is way to big to send through email now. It is 29.8MB big.. I think it is very good, and others who saw it when it was a smaller file thought I was on the right track.

I have about 10 days left to plug in your pix before I need to get this off to EG for his car show. After that, it will be available to others who want to show it at their local shows. I will continue to add to it as long as ya'll send me pix... So send me more!

The Tbird Virtual Fest Power Show

Here is an update on the show. Last night and this morning, I received a lot of pictures from Anders and John Byers. I am plugging theirs in now. Anders also sent me a number of general Tbird pictures seen in Sweden. As a result, I am creating a "Thunderbirds Of Sweden" section in the power show. The show now has 176 pictures in it.

I NEED A GOOD PICTURE OF ALEXANDER'S BLACK GOLDE TOP TBIRD! Anyone have one?

There are now 17 owners who have sent me pictures, or links to theirs. You will have dozens of pictures to look at when you see the show. It presently runs for 16 minutes, and will loop. I used a timing factor of about 5 seconds per picture, which should be enough time to get a good look at each Tbird until the next one comes up. You can always look again!

Once I get this show off to EG for his car show, I can start thinking about making copies of it. EG, I will send you two copies, so you have some insurance in case one goes bad.

It is not to late to send me your pictures if you have not done so yet. As for those of you who have, please do not send me anymore pix because if I insert them into the power show along with the others of yours that are already there, it will throw off my music sequence. I spent a good part of yesterday afternoon, and evening re-sequencing the music to match up with the pictures, and not over ride them. There are a half dozen different cuts of music in this show.

I NEED A GOOD PICTURE OF ALEXANDER'S BLACK GOLDE TOP TBIRD! Anyone have one?

If someone has last year's Squarebirds Calendar, I think Alexander's black '60SR was in there in October with him dressed as a vampire. My scanner is broken and the CafePress link http://www.cafepress.com/sportsterror/959843 that was originally producing the calendars doesn't have it in their listing anymore.

Thanks, Mike! If anyone has that 2007 calendar and can scan in that October picture of Alexander and his Black Golde Top, I would greatly appreciate it. I want to take out the small picture of both his cars that he used as his signature, and replace it with separate pictures. I have a good one of his white car already. That small picture did not expand well and distorted the cars, but it was all I had.

The show now stands at 20 owner contributors, with about 200 pictures in the show. I will have to wrap it up and send it by the last of this week, but I still have time to add more pictures. If you have not sent me yours yet, please do!

Hello,

I thought I had sent you some of my pic's.

You have my permission to use any and all the pics I have on CarDomain. If this won't work, let me know and I can forward the pics to you, but I have a good selection on display on CarDomain, http://www.cardomain.com/ride/833127.

Hi JT,

You did and I did! I have a number of your pix in the show. I see that I have the name of your Bird wrong though. On your web page it is called "Misti" as I recall, but here you called her "Mis-T". I can change that quickly. Thanks for the pix!

[fomoco59]

My mistake, it was 2006 calendar. I got my scanner to work, but it's kinda grainy... Alexander and his Sunroof car.

Thanks, Mike and Bob M! Bob sent me a PM saying that he had done a search on Halloween and found the pix Alexander posted several years back of him, his nieces, and TB decked out for Halloween. There are several posts. 10-29-04 & 11-3-07 were two of them, as I recall. There are others also. Look for anything about Halloween and scan down through the entries, all of them regarding Halloween. You will find them. Some of you still on the forum made comments on them.

I found that same picture you sent me Mike, and a better quality one that Alexander posted himself. I also found an even better one in front of his Tbird. So I will use that until I can find a regular picture of the car itself. However, this is a pretty good picture of Alexander and what he looked like when he dressed up! Lets see if I can post it. Yup, that should do it! Check out the license plate, the red light bulb in the spotlight. Check out the interior. You will find a big picture of it with the cobwebs and stuff. He went all out for Halloween with his neices!

Scary stuff

[Guest]

Great pics I fogot those

[Guest]

Is his spot light Red maybe we just learned a little more about our old friend

[YellowRose]

The Tbird Virtual Fest Power Show

Yes! Alexander would replace the bulb in his spotlight with a red one. He must have had a great time with his nieces, and vice-versa, during Halloween and I am sure at many other times also.

The Power Show is done.. If anyone else sends pictures, I will add them to a second edition if I do one. This show has about 220 pictures in it, runs about 20 minutes or so, and then loops. There have been about two dozen contributors from across the world to it. I will do some final checking of it today and mail it off to EG on Friday... Well in time for his show.
