Can't tell Andy as I only get the IMG_ info...something wrong somewhere?

Also, if I try to copy the IMG_ I can't as it won't turn blue the same as the text above it?

Did you upload the picture on the forum or from IMGbb etc?


Hi Phil, I just up loaded the same as always on here and R M Web, and I can see them fine. Not a clue what IMGbb is so can't answer that one mate.
I'll try another one for you.

IMGbb, is what most people changed to when Photobucket went pear shape Andy, and Photobucket caused me to lose most of my layout pictures on a few forums :rant:

I knew about Photobucket, but never heard of that.
I just use my computer and back up every couple of weeks on a supplementary plug in Drive so that all my pics are safe. Basically it's like running two folders, one on my Lap Top, and one in a Plug in Drive that I can take anywhere and access on any system, and it works for me, and I know that if my computer was to get lost, stolen or explodes, that I still have my photos here at home nice and safe.

Andy.

Yes, I still have all my pictures on my pc but the ones posted with PB are lost and it's not easy to replace them as finding the right ones for the posts could take days.

Who needs a third party host that goes tits up when Windows 10 can insidiously gobble up pictures and whole folders as easy as sneezing. I have lost whole years including recent ones like 2015 and 2016. It doesn't really matter except for all the family shots becasue I rarely look back anyway. There are over 30 years of negs and trannies covering BR 1976-2006 from when I had stuff published regularly and once I stopped, they might as well not exist.

Some forums don't have an attachment upload, in my case, I had to use PB for one forum, then it became a habit just to post the PB links :rolleyes:

That's why mine are backed up onto a small Hard Drive the size of a Fag Packet about once a Month.
When I lost Windows 7, I just gave my Computer Shop my supplementary Hard Drive and they could find everything from the last few years, Railways, Family, Holidays, Art, Dogs etc.
I have now split it to 2 x Hard Drives so that Railways are all on one, and the rest is on the other. Simples.

A lovely shot there Andy not to mention some good modelling there around the pond. Strange though that the hillside is not in the reflection... :)

Thanks Larry, The Hillside is real, so it must be the camera angle, no photoshopping involved here, I can assure you.
