My apologies.   I know of no good way except possibly this, other than sizing the pictures down much smaller:

Realizing that every time you open the post,  you may have seen quite a bit that you don't want to reload  for the next time,    try this:

click on the thread,  and when the page starts to load, hit the stop button at the top of your browzer.     (I no  longer use Internet Exploder, so I don't remember just how it's laid out)

If you are lucky,  the text will load,  with symbols where the graphics are.    If you read the text and find something interesting,   you can right click the icon denoting the picture,  and see what the menu which appears reveals.   There certainly will be "save as"  which will allow you to download and save the pic, and there should be something on the menu that commands "display"  or "show pic"  or somesuch.


Frankly,  the project will be stalled for at least a couple of weeks.   The last picture shows the engine  "roughed in"  on the mounts  and the chain coupler to the transmissions  hooked up.      I bought a two--post chassis hoist--which I'm building a base for to make it freestand---and as soon as it's done,  I REALLY  need to yank the 5 speed out of the old Ranger and get it repaired.

Here's the hoist project.  Today was a non-starter----we had slush  and snow   and I finally gave up in disgust,  my gloves dripping water

440roadrunner,  It worked!!, I can have each picture come in one at a time and they all come in full size. Know I can see the project and appreciate the amount of work you are putting into it. I especially like the hoist. I have been keeping my eyes open for a hoist also. Keep us posted on your projects.  Thank you very much,

Gerald
