24T42 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 about the AACA 75th web site .For the last several years that I have posted to the web site, I have used a different photo album to display the pictures of the AACA meets and tours. Before I continue I would like some feedback as to whether or not any one is having problems accessing the pictures. Go the 75th web site; click on time line; choose a year 1956-1964; then select a meet or tour; click on view photos from that event.One problem I know of will be if you are on dial-up as the slide show is set to 3 seconds (I can't adjust it here). This causes the slides and captions to get out of sync. But if you view a 2nd time, everything will be fine.If this proves to be too much of a problem, click on the slide show title which appears in the lower left hand corner. A new window open showing all the pictures in that slide show. At this point, you can select slide show and can adjust the slide show speed.The reason I choose Picasa web albums is two fold. One the photo albums can be accessed anytime bypassing the web site by entering AACA 75th web albums. The albums are public and are searchable. Go to the search box and type in a car, an event, or name. Please let me know if you have any opinions - pro or con.Thanks in advance.Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durant Mike Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Judy I went to the site and had no problems with it. I have a DSL connection by ATT and everything showed up fine. Slides did go by a bit quick but when I came back and re-read your posting I saw how to slow them down. Great sight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Stoneberg Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Hi Judy, Good job...But I did find that after looking the pictures, there was no link back to select another year or back to the main page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Lichtfel Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I enjoyed the pictures of the 1953 Glidden. I was on that tour with my 1916 Peerless that I had just finished restoring when I was in high school. The tour was for pre-1917 cars so my Peerless was one of the newer cars. I did receive an award for being the youngest person in the AACA to have restored a car, I was 17 at the time. I still go on tours with this car except now I'm one of the older persons with usually the oldest car. How times have changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter J.Heizmann Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Hi, Judy.Works fine and great job as usual. Agree with Bill Stoneberg that to have a link to switch to another year would be helpful but not earth-shattering.Regards,Peter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1937hd45 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 If you look at the 1950 Glidden photo #4 my 1912 Model T Ford is closest to the camera. It was owned my Elmer Bemis at that time. I got my first Model T ride in the car in the early 1960's and bought it in 1989. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
