discussion P47-D Thunderbolt 1/8th Scale

[Guest]

Hi Guys,I said some time ago that i would let you know how this build was going... well, im prety well into it now and have loads of pics to show you. Despite my many attempts to add these pics i still cant get the hang of it. I have tried clicking on the icon above and it does nothing. I have also looked at the unhelpful Help files and cant find the answer. Anyone got any pointers please.

If you have them on your computer, just go to reply, write what you want , then go down the board to , manage attachments, click there, it will open and you will see Browes, click on that , it will go to your computer, sellect your file and picture, then go to browes again and repeat.

Thanks ron i did exactly what you have said but i cant find manage attachments anywhere on the page. Perhaps something is missing off it.

Hi Skyraider,

Have a look at the pic below - you should see either the manage attachments button as arrowed or the go advanced button, if you click on the go advanced it will also bring up the manage attachments button in an additional box below the reply box (scroll down the page if need be) - try it and then follow the steps as posted by ron above.

Regards......Mark.

Thanks for the advice i will give it a try later, in the meantime i have just uploaded a load of pics in the Gallery section. Im not sure if this is a good place to put them because it doesnt tell anyone that they are there. They are in Under Construction section. Thanks again for you help MarkAndy

No good mate. In the section of the screen shot it says Attach FilesValid file extensions: gif jpeg jpg txt zip. Then in advanced there is notning at all to click on to add or upload files/images. I gues i will just have to live with it.Thanks again.Andy

Thanks for trying to help. I'm new here and having a little trouble. I did manage to post a pic a few weeks ago when replying to a question, since then i cant find any way to upload any more its as though the settings have changed. I'm sorry to seem a bit thick but i can find anything in the gallery about post. I would normally say that im very good with the PC... been using them for years and can do most things including CAD but this has got me stumped.Andy

Sorry if I got the "wrong end of the stick", is the problem you're having getting more photos into your gallery or inserting a gallery photo into a post?

The build is looking good, for a first real build it's very impressive and would certainly make an interesting "Under Construction" thread. I'm looking forward to it!

Hi Ron, The manage attachment button doesnt apear to be there. I cant post in the box either it doesnt give me an option... should i copy and paste?.Andy

 

[Guest]

Andy,

Have a look under my reply now - you should see a quick reply box and on that will be the manage attachements button, that is the one you want - if you type a reply yourself you will see it below as you can on this reply now

The go advanced option should also be there.

Regards......Mark.

Hi, Its not a problem uploading to the gallery its puting them on a new thead and also if i replied to anyone like i am to you know, there is no way i can attatch a pic. I have some more pics to upload but i will wait untill the weekend as i am now skinning the lower fuse then its on to the wings and air retracts before glassing and resin then marking and panel build up with paint layers. Then its onto riviting, final paint and then weathering. It really takes a lot of time but i enjoy it soo much. Then there is the cost, every time i go to the model shop its a fortune. i spent £190 today on servos, fuel tank and some metric drivers, a set of 4. This thing is eating up more money than the misses. I hadnt better let her know that though, she'll be after a fur coat!!!.Andy

No good Mark, If i knew how to take a screen shot like you have i could show you what i have got. I do have exactly what you are showing but the attacment button isnt there.Andy

Which brings us back to square one - even if you could take a screen shot you would not be able to show it to me as that is the problem - you cannot find the attachment link to post it to show me...it is there I assure you.

I assume from your previous posts you are using the reply button in the bottom right corner of the box - if so scroll down the page a bit and you will see the magical button you are looking for.

Have a look at my screen shot now.

Regards......Mark.

if your screen looks like this then click the + sign, which will expand the window to show the Manage Attachments button. You can still use the method I explained before to get photos into a thread rather than as an attachment if you use the "advanced" reply, that's the one on the extreme left of the screen just below a post.

Hi mate,Its no good. Where the + its a -. It seems that i do not have the access to upload this way anymore, this is what i have found out by a little more reading. Trouble is it doesnt tell me how to contact anyone to sort this issue out. It did work when i first signed up because i sent some pics to someone who was asking about dry brushing. Since then i cant upload to the thread anymore. I need to contact someone who can sort this out but i dont know who.Andy

I think it's time you had a word with John, the founder of this site.

Click the above link and send him a message and I'm sure he'll fix it in no time, he always has when I've had problems!
