Despite having lots of stuff painted in the last 11.75 calendar months, I am sticking to my own, self-imposed, rules, and only entering things painted in February. Last batch had flock, clump and scatter added last night and this morning.
So serious impressive stuff out there.

Well, apart from my acw models i entered, everything in my entries was painted in february.
most of them arrived late january too i think

Yes.

Add the images to a blog post. On each image right click and select copy image address.
Back to the forum, click the insert image icon (3rd one on 2nd row, looks like a landscape picture)
Paste between the two img tags (the cursor should be in the right place).

It sounds more complex than it is!

Cheers Fred ;)
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

No probs. I see you got it to work.

I do like your army photos, there is something about photos of miniatures taken outside, that makes them look really good.

These were taken in late, late autumn. One of the benefits of living in the East of England as we get a higher percentage of sunny days than most.

Having grown up on the East coast, and now living on the West, I have plenty of opportunity to contrast wet and mild, with clear and windy. Unfortunately lately it has been wet and cold and windy.  :(

Quick message for fsn, can you make another post in the vehicle category so that I can transfer one of your entries over to it?  We try to keep one entry per post so that it's easier to track the entries.

Got my last photos posted now, takes ages faffing around trying to pick the best photos, especially for the army category.

I'm really liking Tiny Tin Troops' WWI entries - and it looks like the LoA range has generated so many entries it could have its own category!

Good luck to all!
