Make sure the file isn't too large. Look in the lower window, it gives you file size limits. Use JPG when you can because it is the largest file limit. (7.44mb I think)

I am going to guess the file is too large

I like this plane, I might have to make one one of these days....





there is a replica at the museum in Ft. Rucker. amazing that men would fly these things

Hi Aaron,

I think you can open the picture in the post you loaded it to, right click on it and save as. Then you can insert it in a new post. Is that what you mean?

brnyrbbl

Actually I was referring to >UserCP >Attachments. It lists all the pics you have uploaded. It only has the option of delete. I was wondering if there was a way to attach previously uploaded pics into a new post. As of now, I can only see the option of attaching pics from your computer or web. Maybe Mike can add that feature to attach previously upped pics so I don't have duplicates. Otherwise, what's the point of storing them on WF?

Grasshopper

What are you wanting to do with them Aaron? Are you wanting to grab them for attaching to an additional post? I've never used that feature in the user CP but just noticed I have 28 pages of attachements there. Heck, I never even knew thay were there.

brnyrbbl

LOL!!.. that's what I mean.. What's the point of storing them on WF if we have to reupload them from our PC everytime we create a new post and want to attach them.

brnyrbbl

Let's see if it works.. I chose "show thumbnails" then right clciked on the pic and selected "copy". I then "pasted" in the quick reply window and it appears to work. If the pic is in this post it does.
**You have to click on the thumbnail to get the full screen pic then copy/paste.

FlyingMonkey

but it was TINY

brnyrbbl

Try again.. I copied/pasted the thumbnail but it only showed the thumbnail so I opened the pic then copied/pasted again.

Just go open a photobucket account. You can organize and file your pictures. It makes life so much easier.

you don't even have to do the funky three keys to copy thing to save the picture's img code, you just click on the line, it automatically copies it for you to use where you will...

brnyrbbl

Sorry for stearing your thread off course spitfire. I was trying to figure out the picture thing for you and I should have used the "test" forum.

spitfire

ok here are the pics and i also made most of the left wing

FlyingMonkey

er, I am pretty sure the wing ribs aren't supposed to be cut between the notches for the spars...

spitfire

yes they do... hopefully

brnyrbbl

errrr.. I have to agree with Monkey.. usually ribs are one piece for structural integrity and strength. Don't worry yet though. Does the manual say if they are supposed to be split? You can always pick up some balsa sheet then trace the cut ones you have and re-make them if you have to.

brnyrbbl

The solid line in the plans where you split the ribs is usually a cross brace. It is a solid piece of balsa that sits flush between the top and bottom of the rib or between the spars in some cases and extends between the ribs. Hopefeully your plane is built differently than most and you have it correct.

spitfire

i don't have a building manual, but here is what the plans some what indecated.

brnyrbbl

The spars seem pretty "meaty" so I think you will be ok. You could always put a small doubler where the cut is. (sort of like a band-aid)

brnyrbbl

Are the wings solid sheeted? If they are you definitely will be Ok.

FlyingMonkey

ahhhhh, maybe it is intended for the solid spar.

That makes more sense.

FlyingMonkey

I am impressed, to be building off from plans with no directions.

Quite a feat.

spitfire

well it is supposed to have cap strips and monokote but i am going to sheet the wings with balsa, and the spares are very meaty they are pine

brnyrbbl

Try to keep the sheeting as thin as possible. If it was designed for monokote than it may not fly to well with the extra weight of the sheeting. What are you planning for covering material?

spitfire

1/16" and monokote
