To inline images, just put the link to the image in between [ img ] and [ /img ] brackets

[Cirberus]

So you would attach the files, and then in this box add baby5.JPG ?


also, what do you think of the headunt?


edit: my link to the picture is not coming up?!?

The proper URL is:<a href="http://www.fastcougar.com/forums/attachments/baby5%2EJPG">

Try putting that between the img brackets, and it should work.

Ooooh... what headunit mounting kit is that??? there's lots of room for my switches on that top panel

[Cirberus]

I am not sure what mounting kit they used. I had it installed at Kromer. My biggest concern was if the flip down would clear the shifter, and if so, would I be able to put a CD in when i was in Park. Turned out that its not a problem.

Nice pix! What type of digital camera is it?

[Cirberus]

Its a Canon PowerShot S230 Digital Elph

3.2 MegaPixels

with 3 minute video with sound. Its very cool.

I wanted to get the S400 (only difference was 4 MP), but I couldn't justify $700.

There's another difference. There's a few other differences. Different case, button, and menu design on the S400. But more importantly, higher movie resolution on the S230. Yes.. the S230. It can do beautiful 640x480 whereas the S400 is only 320x200. I had an S230, it got stolen, so I bought an S400. Super nice camera, but the S230 is GOOD ENOUGH. Kind of regret not just getting another one.

About that res thing, I think it's because they use the same processor in both cameras, and while it has enough power to reduce 3.2MP down to 640x480, it can't deal with the extra 800,000 pixels in the S400 in a timely fashion, thus you're stuck with 320x200!

Massiv.

i have the s400 digital elph :biggrin: what a sweet camera!!!
MUCH MUCH better than the kodak one i had before. i can't remember the model number, but it was equivalent to the canon i have now in terms of features (4MP, 3x zoom, etc), but the picture quality is not even close to what this canon s400 gives me! the sweet part is, i bought the kodak for $500 on sale with a 3 year warranty from future shop...and then the retractable lens broke somehow, i returned it, and after 30 days passed without them repairing it, i got to choose a brand new camera (had to have at least the same features as my kodak) and i picked the $700 canon s400 ;)

[Cirberus]

It really is a fun little toy. They had a deal for a 128mb card for cheap. So i added a little more and got the 256mb.

My biggest problem with it was finding a case that wasn't too big for it. Aren't too many cases small enough for it. ;-)

[rastaman]

i got the accessory kit that has a spare battery and fitted leather case...it retails for like 99 bucks, but i got it for 20 :)

[Cirberus]

How did you get it for $20? thats an $80 or $90 battery!


That case you got with it doesn't have the strap though does it?

[rastaman]

well, what happened was that i was originally gonna buy the camera from best buy...and they salesman told me that if i bought the 3 year extended warranty, it would cover the battery as well...so if the battery capacity dropped significantly for whatever reason, it would be covered. now every single cell phone that i've ever owned has had the battery capacity go to **** after a few years, so i thought this was an important thing to be covered. when i went to future shop, they said they're warranty didn't cover the battery, so i was ready to go back to best buy and get it there. rather than lose the sale, the guy told me that since their warranty didn't cover the battery, they would give me a second battery for $20...and i obviously said, giddy up! also, the fitted leather case i got doesn't have a strap, but it has a hole in the top so you can thread thru the handstrap that comes with the camera. it's pretty cool.

[Cirberus]

Cool!

Gotto know how to play the game!!! :cool:
