Thanks Sandro!I would use the upload link paper clip to upload picture from my hard drive and then insert!I am assuming i cannot do this? I only posted pictures from my hard drive picture album so i assume i must find another way of uploading the pictures or am i missing something here?. Thanks steve |

how did you do that with atlas ? didn't know they provided webspace for pictures.
i'm sorry. disabled here. guess you have to use something like flickr or any other image hosting website.

Some time ago MikeC posted a tutorial on Railroad Line forums because some folks had problem posting pictures.The jist of it if you look below the reply box when it comes up on that forum and Atlas similar to this forum a paper clip can be seen. When you click on paper clip which says insert a file i believe a box comes up so you can download a picture from a file on your hard drive. You then inserted the info as instructed and the pictures could come up as picture shown or clink on link to picture.Guess this was or is handy for those who have no picture albums etc elsewhere.I will figure something else out so i can post sometimee.Steve |

it is an add-on (additional software). unfortunately there seem to be quite a few security issues with this feature. you could easily upload a virus and crash my server. not sure if i want that....

Steve, rather than pulling the image from your hard drive, upload it to something like PhotoBucket then insert just as sandro suggest.
I will try it here:
Works fine, and NO additional software required.
Coming soon to a layout near you... The Santa Fe El Capitan. |

You are correct sir. I do love the 2903. I had the MTH 3-rail scale version that came out about 10-12 years ago. I have since sold it when I got interested in HO.
I have seen the one at IRM and it is in really rough condition. I don't know if or when IRM will ever have the funds to restore that puppy. They have what seems to be a hundred projects on the to do list. All they need is a few million dollars and a few hundred more volunteers and they start some of the projects in the queue.
BTW, who produced your 2903?
Great Pic.

The 2903 is by Samhongsa for Hallmark and is called a Super Crown. It really has some nice details. Auburnflyer |
