HI All sorry about build pics not uploading but beyond my control but in a few days time I should have a 6 sheet plans set of HMS TIGER C20 in 1/72 scale from the post man

so I will using my new camera put on here but in the build section a complete build of her an in 1/72 scale she is 95 inches long so it should take me the nxt 5 yrs or so to
scratchbuild her as I don't think they do a grp hull so im gonna have fun with all the working features with full R/C that will be on her as well just got to hope the money lasts out lol

TEST PICS

HI Guys this is just two test pics to see how they come out on the forum as the build would not upload on here ive treid a diferrent approach by downloading pics to printer an printing pics off.
Then using my new camera takeing a pic of the pic that been printed off an then uploading on here but if they are not very good i'll stop

1st pic of underside of hull with my wife jenView attachment 328077 holding it this is about half way through the build when pics taken. She is about 5ft 7" so you can see what size the ship was an it came in two halves for ease of tranport

why the build pics wont post on the forum an its all to do with that my friend with my ok to download the Nimitz build

to his pc an then he uploaded the build pics into a m- stick to me an I then downloaded the pics into my new pc the pics had lost their image jpeg designation an the forum wont have nothin to lock onto to upload to the thread - oh ive got a headacke LOL

Can you change the file extension back to .jpeg?
Pete
HI Pete no I can't as the original pic's with the jpeg image of the Nimitz build are on my old p/c with the trogen in it as I got hacked by someone from Poland but I had the p/c fixed an they said its safe to use as the trogen is in clink in the old p/c.But im not takein any chances on this as I don't want to infect my new p/c or anyone eles but thank you for your intrest
 
Can you open the pics on your current PC from the memory stick? If so you should be able to save them to you hard drive, maybe use a different file name. Altneratively (and more time consuming) if you can open the pics you could then hit the print screen button which will copy them to the clipboard, then open Paint and paste them into a new picture, then save.
