[:(!][V]gonna practice again in test forum
hope to post it in a couple of hours or days…[:(!]

third time, hopefully right…

Nope, still just the dreaded red X.

  1. Go to what ever site is hosting your photo and right click on the photo
  2. left click on the word “properties”, usually at the bottom of the pop up menu
  3. left click and hold at the beginning of the address/URL, drag the mouse to the end and release.
  4. right click on “copy”
  5. go to your FSM post window and set the cursor where you want the picture to be.
  6. right click, then left click on “paste”
  7. make sure [img] is at the front of the URL and [/img ] is at the end, with the space before ]
  8. click preview at the bottom of the post window and see if it comes up

Hmm, a mystery in and of itself… what also works is placing the address of the photo (found in the properties window- see yardbird’s post.) in the middle of something like this:

[image]Insert Image Address Here[/image ]

There are absolutely no spaces in the front and back brakets. I just did that so you could see what it looks like. Otherwise you get the dreaded red X.

Hope this helps.

Looking at the file name, I’m going to guess that your image shows a Blohm und Voss Bv 138…

Yes, Steve is right, it is a Blohm und Voss BV 138. First flown in 1939 and served with 20 maritime reconnaissance Stafflen in all theaters during WWII. Various models include:

Patience my friend, Revell Germany looks like they will be answering your call for a 1/72 one this year.

http://revell.de/cgi-bin/kat/katalog.pl?cmd=overview&KOSCHL=01&grp=03&ARARTN=04368&modellsuche=&showall=true&ps_KOSCHL=&SWO=&MAS=&frei=&lang=en&kat=modell&sort=&page=4&mas=

its sceduled for an October 2005 release according to their site.

15

thank you all very much for your help here

now just a little patience for the revell model to be released…,
and a little practice on picture posting…

greetings from holland,

Nuts, looks like I’m going to be buying another kit - like I really need it!

17

i need this airplane for a diorama.
gebirgjager where flown in to norway with them and i hope to make a diorama of this action in scale 1/72

18

According to the rumors the Revell kit is a reboxing of an older italeri kit., so be prepared for raised panel lines etc.

There where several variant’s of this aircraft, with different turrets etc. so you might want to look in to that before you start your build.

remco, thanks for your advice,
havent thought about that…

I think your problem with the picture is that the site requires a password. Try uploading it at photobuket.
