Thanks John,

I answered my own question at the bottom of my second post: I had posted a link where the photos came from in my post just above yours (post # 44755). If you follow my link, the whole photo session can be viewed. Thanks anyways.

I have a newbie question.
I can't always get to this thread every day, and some days I have to back up pages to make sure I don't miss any of what is one of the best threads on the HAMB.
Is there some way that each time I get on, I can go to the last page I viewed?
Thanks, Mike

 

Thanks for posting those Crossely
and Kaiser pics, 'sw66'. The 'dealer
pics' in particular got me thinking -
that with my luck - and my great
automotive foresight - if I'd been a
car dealer back then, selling new
Crossleys, Kaisers or Packards, I'd
have probably closed my dealerships
down, switched brands and bought
an Edsel franchise!!!

You should be able to create a bookmark on your tool bar. After every session, I just drop and drag the star icon from the search bar to the bookmark section from the last page viewed. Then I delete the previous bookmark. Next time I want to view pics, I just click on my bookmark and I am at the last page viewed.

 

I remember that car from the
magazines 'back in the day'. It was
owned by a guy named V.V. Cummins.
There's a thread on the H.A.M.B about
the "Wompin' Wagon" too, with lots of
pics and history on the car at
www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=317973

Mike:


There us a little red triangle in front of the thread on the main page, if you click on that it will take you right to the first post after the one you read last. That should solve your problem.

Thanks Bob, I didn't know about that..

 

When you subscribe to a thread (or view it in the index), and you're logged in (and/or have cookies set, I'm not 100% sure how this forum software tracks it) there's a "button" to "Go to first new post"... Here's a picture showing where to click to "Go to first new post" You actually have to click that small button to the left of the title, not the title itself.

I'm not subscribed and it works right for me. But I never knew that this was available. this sure saves a lot of backtracking. What a great feature! THANKS!!!

 

Nope, I do it for a lot of threads that I'm not subscribed to.

 

WOW! I never knew about that either! What a person can learn if they just ask! Jim

 

I look at the last time visited by me(top right hand corner below my HAMB name).Then just go backwards through pages until you find the same time someone last posted.then go through each page forward again.May be a long way around but works for me.
