Welcome to MSW, Paul. I know it would require some extra work, but I can say with some confidence that few of the people who click on your build log will feel motivated to download a pdf to see the work, so posting some photos here will get you more views. As of just now, for example, your post has been viewed thirty times, but the file has only been downloaded twice.

 

Cheers!

Hi Chris.  Thanks for the note.  This was my first attempt at doing this, so all suggestions are appreciated.  So I understand, how would I post photos outside of a PDF or Word document - can I load directly to the forum?  And would I include some amount of annotation or explanation?

 

I'm guessing now that a build log should be built up sequentially over time rather than as a summary.  I'll be starting a couple of new kit builds, so I'm interested in getting the logistics right.

 

Thank you,

Paul

I guess a follow-on question is, should I fix this by loading my text and figures directly to the link, over-riding the Word document attachment?

 

Thanks

Hi, Paul. This article will actually answer many of your questions about how to use the forum. In addition to the method for uploading photos described in the article, you can simply copy-and-past photos directly into your post. My photos are stored on Google's cloud, and that's how I add them.

 

You can start a build log at the beginning of a build or chronicle a previous build. If you just want to share photos of completed models, you can do that in the gallery.

 

Cheers!
