Default Helpful viewing tip for NEW GUYS (?)

Now that pictures are so easy to post, you are going to see some very long threads with many posts AND many pages. The problem is having to hit the BACK button and work your way back to where you started. Here's a viewing technique that may help.

Instead of clicking on the thread with the LEFT mouse button, click it with the RIGHT button. A small window will open .... select/click on "Open link in new window." Now you can go through the thread page by page. When you are finished just close the whole window with the X in the far upper right corner, and you'll be back at the same spot on the forum where you started the thread.

Try it on the "Sticky:Welcome to the new Ford Barn" or "First new Thread! How bout some pics!"

(Great software, Ryan.)

The other thing you can do to help yourself is to click on the white triangle in the blue square next to the topic - this will take you to the first new post since the last time you read it.

Default Thanks for the tip...

Thanks for the tip. By the way, I thought you were supposed to "keep the rubber side down." That's a beautiful coupe. Too many of them were lost to the dirt tracks back in the day!
