Thanks for clarifying this. I kind of thought what you said was the case. I will post the build here slowly as I sort out the pictures and build notes, and trust the people in charge to tell me when they think transferring it would be a good idea.

Thanks again.

I'm not a moderator, but you could actually post it in the other section here named Completed, fully documented scratch builds.

In the end the building topics that are posted here and that are completed are transferred over there as well. People can still ask questions and comment over there.
However, to have more response I guess you might post it here (more viewers) gradually and after 1 month or so ask a moderator to transfer it?

I have photographed and recorded the scratch build of my model, but it's not a current build (I finished it about 18 months ago). It will still take me a while to re size and organise the pictures and notes of the build. I thought I could feed it in in single short posts so that questions could be asked and answered. Can I still post in on this section of the forum or is it strictly for models currently under construction?

This is a logical step forward and a good one :thumbs_up_1: :wave_1:

You can open the picture in Paint, go to Image -> Resize/Skew, and then change the horizontal and vertical percentage to something less until the picture's dimension reach 800 or smaller.

Alternatively, you can just put the picture onto a photo-hosting website such as www.tinypic.com and post the Direct Link to the picture in your post. We can then just click on your link to see your picture at full size.

Hi,

So if the files are much larger, is there n easy way to downsize them so they will be acceptable?

Thanks

Charlie

The 800x600 limit only applies to pictures you are posting using the [img]and[/img] tags. If your pics are more than 800 wide, the forum will inform you when you try to post.
You can also check the size of any picture on your computer by right-clicking it and going to Properties -> Details.

How do I make sure that the pictures will not be larger than the specified 800 x 600 pixels? Also, can they be jpg, gif or tif files?

Please title your thread using the following format:

Moderators will change thread titles to the preferred format.

Tim and Sean have emplaced significant anti-hacker features on this site. In the unlikely event that the site is hacked or threads otherwise lost, modelers are strongly advised to save their important posts as text files on their own computers at home so that the thread can be restored.
