I have moved trailers around with a bobcat facing that way, ball on the blade.. it's kind of tricky at first, because the steering wheels are so close to the hitch.. reacts way faster than you are used to..

Actually with the front receiver I added to my TV I really could tow my pod that way.  I'll have to try humping it around the yard that way one time to see if I like it better.  I'm thinking better maneuverability but worse visibility.

Travis,

It was, as they say in the political world I work in, a "photo opportunity".  Better pics to follow when we actually get her hooked up.

@GA_Rpod178

I don't see how you tow your Pod with your TV facing that way but that's impressive!

You might want to get a long, narrow picture so it is all visible at one time.

Someone just asked me a day ago so I'll copy what I sent them:

First you need to upload the picture using the File Manager in your Control Panel (look for it in the upper left corner of every page). Once it is uploaded you'll see a link for your picture on the right side of the page in the File Manager, next to where it says Download File, you'll need to copy that link (right-click and select Copy Link).

Next in your Control Panel go into the Edit Profile section and scroll down to edit your signature. Below is an example of the code that creates my signature. The link you copied in the last step will need to go between the two IMG tags. TAKE NOTE, I have added an extra space inside of each IMG tag which you will need to remove. I had to add that so you could see the code and not the actual picture.

As for your Avatar, go into your profile in the Control Panel and scroll about 2/3 of the way down, you'll see a link that says Upload Avatar.

Doug,

Two questions to a senior poster?

How do you include the photo down by  your information that appears in all of your posts?  Is that an admin thing?

Secondly, how do you replace the avatar photo with one of your choosing?

Thanks in advance for your expertise for this "newbie".
