**READ FIRST** Rigz Rules & Focus of the Month

[Ataru]

WHAT TO POST:

• Team Rigz is for posting photos of your car, not one you have seen somewhere on the web or on the street.
  Post those images in Pit Stop.
  
• G2G threads are welcome as long as YOUR car is included in some of the images.
  
• Images posted should always include a full exterior shot of your car, even if you are just showing off a new interior mod, etc. Use Rigz to show off your WHOLE car. If you just want to show off that one mod, then that should go in the respective modification forum instead.
  
• DO NOT imbed images of your car in another member's Rigz Thread. Create your own thread if you want to show off your car. If you want to show the thread starter something about your car, posting a link to the picture is fine, but not the image itself.
  
• DO NOT post asking members to post images of their cars. Do a search if you are looking for something specific.

HOW TO POST:

• If you have numerous photos, over 6-7, please be nice and put a 56k warning for our dial-up [FJ] people.
  
• Also learn the Edit button, no need to make several posts in the same thread to fix a problem.
  
• If all else fails, PM, e-mail one the the moderators for Team Rigz.
  
• #1 You need the URL/WWW of just the photo, right click on photo, select Properties, highlight and copy the URL/WWW
  #2 Click the Image tag in the Instant UBB Code below
  #3 Paste the copied URL/WWW
  #4 Hit OK.

WHERE TO HOST YOUR IMAGES:

There are many place to host your photos, but you computer will not work, they have to be on a server such as the following:

• Official [FJ] gallery on Flickr: Click on this button:
  
  
• www.photobucket.com
  I really prefer Photobucket, much easier to use
  
• Uploadimages
  
• The Image Hosting
  
• Painted Over
  
• Imageshack
  
• ImageVenue

Movie hosting

• RapidShare

HOW TO REPLY TO THREADS:

• Keep responses tactful. If you don't like a person's car, give constructive criticism, do not insult the car or the owner, or simply do not reply at all.
  
  If you have any questions, SEE THIS THREAD

FOCUS OF THE MONTH:

Each month there will be a competition for the Focaljet, Focus of the Month. Here are the guidelines:

• Must be a current active member of FJ to be considered.
• Cars to be considered for FOTM must be officially Nominated in the Nominations thread.
  Car owner or any other member may nominate the car.
• Each member may nominate only FIVE cars.
• Each month will have a theme. Please nominate a car that fits into that theme.
• Picturtes of the car should be put in the thread.
• Entries will not roll over to the following month.
• The 5 cars with the most nominations will go into a poll for the members to determine the winner of each month's FOTM.
• FOTM will get a sticky thread for the next month all about the car and the owner AND the car featured on the main page of Focaljet.
• Winners of FOTM can not be considered for future FOTM with the same car within 12 months of winning. On the 13th month after winning, that car is eligible again under the same owner.
