Is it just me or is there a problem with the Models and Resources tabs at the top of the home page. When I click on either of them there is only one line in the selection box. It looks like the box is behind the photos so it can't be seen.
Still finding my way around the site but it looks very clean and tidy. Well done.

It seems I have to log in every time even though I checked the "log me in automatically" box.
Not a big deal, but annoying.

Cheers,
Dave.

Hi Dave, a big "WELL DONE" mate, being a big fan of all the hard work you have done to update the old Journal, and now the Web site, well they should make you a life member! (lets all vote for that one!) As I know how much hard work goes into that job.

Hope you can now get on with your hobby more, as maybe like me, I wasted so many years working on Committees etc. to the detriment of missing out on so much flying time, and the years rolling by. Regards, Vince.

Right click on your picture ken, go into paint, options at the top think it is image, then go stretch skew, you will see size of picture in box's 100% change both of these to 20% you will be able to load this picture, try it you will find it very easy, don't just give up :)

You can get apps that minimize pictures so it's easier to post them.

I'm using one called Minima, free version adds text ad on edited photos, and there are others.

If you have Office on your computer, you should have Microsoft Picture Manager. Open in that, go to Edit picture, Resize, and save as large web picture.
