Hi folks, I'm new around these parts. Just upgraded to premium member and came to share some pics:nuts:
We got our HHR last week. It was used with 8500 miles on it. Loaded Maroon 2LT. I Love so much about it, I cannot just find one outstanding feature, but so many in one package.
Outstanding Chevy! I have not felt this good about an auto since my early days driving Corvairs ( still have two )!
I almost ordered one in Sept, but got swayed into a Vibe for the winter. :red:
Away it went last week, and here we are with our HHR:nuts:

Anyway, we host an event at our store each year called Free Comic Book Day ( yes, I'm one of those ).
Decided to take the HHR and have some community fun with it:)
Enjoy. Many more pictures of all the festivities here:

DUDE!!! WATCH OUT!!! YOUR HHR IS BEING INVADED BY STAR WARS CHARACTERS!!! :lol: That is cool...:thumb: Love Star Wars, but not the fanatic type...

Hey, long time ago I used to live in Hartford and worked in New Britain. I still have a sister who lives in the area. Is that nearby?

Hi Thanks for the replies.
As you can tell I love a good freak show, so this feels like home:lol:
Been doing Corvairs for twenty years now, so I do know some eccentric types!:eek:
New Britain is about an hour from here. I am basically on the border with Rhode Island. We have Mystic Seaport and The Groton Submarine Base as our main points of interest. Oh yeah, and those Indian Casinos. I live next to Foxwoods.

I'm still figuring out how to get pics and graphic into my posts. I am a photographer too, so this is important. Any hints folks? I think I'm just being stupid about something.

Go to photo album and highlight the url of the image - 1st one of the 3 and do ctrl C to copy it.

Come back to the post and click on the image below the left handed arrow...the one that looks like it has mountains on it.

A pop up box will appear and you can paste the url there and click ok.

Then to make sure the picture is there, click on preview post and you should see it in your post.

Hope this helps...I didn't really see any straight forward instructions, so I just figured it out myself..

Nice area up there. Had a consulting gig at Pfizer a year or so ago. Mystic Pizza. Yum.

Nice color on that HHR of yours. :thumb:

Thanks for the pointers! As you can see if you go back to the original post, I have figured it out with your assistance. Thanks again.
I figured out that you have to add a .jpg extension to them for it to work, and also one must reedit them by cutting and pasting, or some other means to get the images to stack vertically. Other wise they go form a horizontal filmstrip.
Oh, and I added some pictures as well.
Here's another 'cause I'm on a roll:http://www.pbase.com/harpozep/image/59902541.jpg
