Hello all - greetings from Florida.
Glad to be associated with you fine people in these noble tasks.
Received my WNW LVG last week and have completed the engine and cockpit.

Inasmuch as I'm new to the forum, posting pictures is presenting a problem. Can't seem to make it work. Any suggestions? Ron

HI Ron and welcome to this great site inhabited by great people to include an actual female.
For posting phtotgraphs, it took me awhile, get a photo bucket account, post them there, then copy and past them into your replies on this forum. Works great, and totally Marine Proof!
I too am working on the LVG, it is a great kit, just time consuming, I am learning patience or is it patients, I get confused, on this one.

Cheers

Mark

Welcome Ron.....I personally do not do too many planes but I do like them. Lots of really nice people to help you with your builds. A lot of us don't do so well with uploading pics . There are directions on how to do it , but it is a bit confusing to me. I usually get my brother to do mine. He is a software designer and programmer. Well, take care and again welcome aboard....Al

Welcome Ron, Alaways room at the mess table for one more! It depends on your set up and imagingg program. Photobucket seems a common place for people to begin. Down in the forum feedback section you will find this theread.

LOL I was rather puzzled by the actual female remark when I first read it.But then I read the BattleAxe Fokker D.VII thread over at the Aerodrome and Terri's comment the the light came on.I may a little slow sometime but I can always appreciate someones sence of humor.

Welcome Ron. Are you using photobucket?

If so, you just go to where is says IMG Code. Highlight it, copy it and paste it straight to your comments. It will look like this, without the spaces.
[ I M G ] http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x309/CaptainA_photo/LVG036.jpg[/ I M G ]

I had to add the spaces to the IMG in parantheses or a picture would have appeared

You were 90% of the way there with the URL's, just had an extra http:// at the start, and the image.file is not needed at the end.

Your work looks very tidy: love the instrument panel, can't wait to see more.

Great job, the grain pattern on the bulkheads looks like it's really wood.
