Hi guys. I just found where everybody is hanging out...

Hello, My name is Mitch. I am 50 and have been building model cars off and on since I was 8.

I probably know some of you from other forums.

Looking forward to getting started here on Al's forum.

Hey Mitch, we got it sorted in the end.

Welcome on board buddie.

welcome to the party

Hi Mitch, greetings from downunder.

Who left the door unlocked?.........

Greetings Mitch

ha... ha... Paul.

Welcome aboard Mitch.

Welcome to Skid's Place. Probably should have called it Al's Place. Give a shout if you have any problems, we will try to resolve them.

When we set this place up, 'Skid's Place' was meant to be a working title before it went public.... but then it just kind of stuck.

Welcome !

Gawd, they'll let anyone in these days. LOL

Welcome Mitch!

Glad to have another member in the plastic posse!  All builds and builders welcome.  Hope you'll add fotos and opinions to the mix.

Well I was going to post my 72 Nova build but because I'm a newbie here, the site says I have to wait 7 days before I can post pictures, so... just a few more days...

Welcome on board Mitch

Strange about the 7 day wait ... i was posting pictures a day or two after i joined ... maybe a forum software update has changed the time period...

That is a new one to me, Never heard of a member having to wait to post pictures. Gonna check into this.

Neither have I. Let me know what you find out Buck.

I would post a picture of the screen shot but....

Is it an online image storage site that you're having problems with ...

When i came on board i chose to use the free image storage that Al provides us all

Its quick and functional and easy to use ... lots still use image shack or what ever but the freebie from Al is actually more secure.

Just a thought to try Als freebie, if this works then it's an issue with whatever you're now using.

I don't think that's it Snake. I have my pictures on Photobucket and have had an account for years. I post them on another site all the time.

This is the message that shows up in the box after I press the send button to save it.

"New members are not allowed to post external links or emails for 7 days. Please contact the forum administrator for more information."

Right o then ........with that message, it does seem that the forum software preferences and parameters have changed in the last year then...

We'll just have to wait a bit longer to see your work .... unless admin can suss it for you.

I think I cracked it. Try again Mitch.

Hi Mitch,

Welcome to the forum Sir, hope you have a great time, they're all a great bunch in here, very friendly and full of help and information...

Thanks Al... Nova WIP posted...

Al, I looked at the Admin panel and can't find anything about a delay in posting pictures. I see you think you found something. I hope it works.

It did. I found a bit banning new members from emails and external links. I took external links to include photos. Unchecked it and it seems to have worked.
