Rick, I did that the same way and it takes me to another website for hosting. When I get there I can't seem to get it back to xosmos

Once you hit post it a screen will come up with a lot of computer jargon on it. There will be a set of four lines followed by your picture and then another five lines. The first of the five is called "Hotlink for forums (1)".
Copy it and then paste it in your post as I have below. Press preview and you should be able to see your picture. If not, try again.

Good deal Paul. Now I see it. That's a BIG RC plane you got there. My Dad used to build & fly RC planes all the time, but he's gotten a bit too old to do that kind of thing anymore

Hi Tom,
No, it's a 14, same as yours.
I'll be 65 in October and I'm getting a little old for this. The 125 pound weight by itself isn't bad, but the 14" is bulky and awkward to carry. I don't mind carrying it across the yard. And I don't mind mounting it. But carrying it up and down stairs is a bitch. Pete |

Ill never complain carrying my 11 inch-er any more. Well, not until I have to do it next time. Older may not be better, but it sure is wiser! Can't wait to have a permanent place with a perfect alignment so I can get to enjoying it more and futzing with it less.

Pete, i agree. It is a bear up and down stairs. Had mine for all of a month before building the roll off observatory. It hasn't moved since.
I also like to thank you for your great upgrades. I have them all -------------------- Meade LX200GPS 14" Pier Mounted

Is there a keyboard shortcut for "Cut", "Copy" & "Paste"? I'm a Mac guy and the 3 are easy as can be. All this right clicking & drop down menu stuff looks, well, annoying...

It is annoying. That's the reason I just plain hate doing pictures. You almost need to reference a flow chart every time you do something. I don't do them enough to remember how to do them, so I always find I have to dig out my notes. Too big of a pain in the butt.
One picture is worth a thousand words, or in this case a thousand clicks. Carol |

OK I'll guess I'll post as well.
Here is where I spend most of my waking days. About 5 years ago. How time does fly!
Another shot taken by my daughter about a year ago. :shock: A tad grayer :?
