The Fender Toronado GT caught my interest because I'm a car guy and owned the Oldsmobile version with the same name. After reading up on the Fender, it appears that they are actually a decent guitar. It has an identity crisis, as it is more Gibson-centric than Fender-Centric.
I've had it on my radar for some time, and finally found the right deal and bought one.

This is the Olds I had with the lovely Linda Vaughn, a dear friend of mine.

Nope.

Incorrect HTML format.

That's part of the problem. They show up fine for me here. I'm using Google for pic hosting. FWIW, it is working fine on other sites.

One last attempt. If they don't show now (in the first post), I don't know what else to do.

Funny thing is, I saw your nice red white striped guitar and sweet blonde friend pics right after you posted the original message unmodified the first time. Maybe you were still signed to google and the computers did a swindle...

This forum is tricky with pics. You need to find the pic web address ending with .jpg (or other pic file type), then post that to the forum with the IMG-button.
Forum and google don't mix well, same with facebook.
Upload the pics to some image hosting site - preferably one with as little advertising and popups as possible, then copy the image address from there.

I use Safari on Mac and I must not use IMG button to post the picture, just copy the img from Photobucket.

Do we need to use Google Chrome to see the picture ?

Obviously pretty quirky. I can try URL copy:

Nope, still not working - one would need to sign in to google...
Don't use the big G account myself, but you probably need to upload pics to an album and make that public - or maybe they've changed their policy and you need to go via google photos... :roll:

Anyways, it was a nice guitar pic.

Finally went another route to make the pics work. (The first pic is the guitar I have, but not a pic of mine.)
