Ok, I'll do what I can as long as Leon doesn't start trying to slip horse meat into the equation!  ;)

Hi Leon.

I'm also Happy to put Pendraken stuff on my two blogs.

Feel free to send/mail me the Pendraken news.

But with the exception of fantasy stuff, sorry !  :)

I'll continue to put up pics of all my projects on my blog.  Sometime that will involve Pendraken figures.

I've created two Pendraken photo albums on photobucket for FPW and SYW.

Be more than happy to post a link on my blog if it would be of help...already got pics of some of your ranges on there anyway :)

Sigur

I'll more than happily post a link and/or new releases of Pendraken minis on my blog/website and facebook page. I'm also involved in a very popular blog called Tale of Painters. So far it's "Games Workshop only" but we're thinking of finally breaking loose of those artificial boundaries in which case I'd be more than happy to advertise Pendraken product there or have Pendraken become a sponsor of our site.

Apart from that I'm a reguilar on Warseer. It's mainly a forum about fantasy/Sci-Fi wargaming but a.) Pendraken's got that covered anyway and b.) Historicals seem to get more and more popular on there as well.

I go on a number of forums on and off, especially specific club ones.  Probably my most frequent visit is to the Steve Dean forum www.sdean-forum.co.uk and I know Steve doesn't charge much for an advertising banner on the top of the page, the sort that changes with every page change.

Also Edmund and I are trying a funzine focused in 10mm figures, warmaster but have space for other games fantasy or historical but with 10mm figures.
We are really doing it for fun and starting with the project. If we could help, just let us know

I'm going to start a new album on photobucket showing WIPs of the Dux Britonnium figures I bought yesterday at Phalanx. The Late Roman figures are particularly impressive. I am using a mixture of Saxons, Norse and LR Saxon militia for the hairy chaps from Germany and Denmark. First up will be units of British warriors, using three based to a penny.

Well you'll have to go to photobucket. I have just spent another fruitless 45 minutes trying to get an image on the forum and I just don't get how it works. I press this - nothing. I press that - nothing. I press this and that - nothing. I press that and this - nothing. I tear out hair and turn the air blue!!! Incidentally I'm on photobucket as dour puritan so it should be easy to find (but then again!).

Yet another post I've had to scrap because it wouldn't go. And no-one on this forum seems to be able to explain this photo posting thing in words from before 1990. If you want to help me post photos from photobucket please assume I am a two year old with no notion of anything whatsoever to do with computers. Incidentally I use a Mac Notebook, it's supposed to be easier than Windows. Now after 75 fruitless minutes I'm off to tea.

Just did a test in another thread, and it worked! Here's what I did:

Go to your photobucket library, and click on the image you want to put in a post. It should open up in a bigger view.
On the right hand side should be a 'Links to share this photo' box. Click on the entry after where it says IMG. It should show 'copied' for an instance.
Now's the tricky bit, as I don't know if this is the same on a Mac. In Windows, you could do one of the following:
Go to your post, and either hold the shift key and press the Insert key. OR open a menu with the right mouse button, and choose paste.
The idea is to paste the text that you copied into your post. If you know how to copy/paste text, this will work exactly the same.

Note that there is no need to use the 'Insert image' button on the forum. What you copied will work as an image right away, and already has the img tags.

Hope that helps, and if not, just give a shout.

I'm not sure if it's different on a Mac, and I'm sure the copy/paste keyboard links would be different as well.  What OldenBUA says should still work though.  

There are two methods you can use, so have a look at both and see which one works for you.

Method 1
 
- When you're in Photobucket, click on 'Library', and then click on the folder you want to open up.  In my example, this would be 'Forum Stuff'.  The pictures should all appear in a grid, and underneath each one is a group of small boxes, each one with a load of text in it.  These are all for different uses, one for emailing, one for websites, etc.  

- The code you need is the bottom of these, labelled IMG, and highlighted in red in my picture.  You can click on the piece of text in the 'IMG' box, which should highlight the text.  

- From here, you will need to copy the text, then come over to the Forum and paste your text, and all done.



Method 2

This one takes slightly longer when posting lots of pics.

- Click on your 'Library', and then the folder you want to look in.  

- Go to the photo you want to share, and click on it.  You should now have a bigger image on the screen.

- To the right hand side, there are a series of boxes again, each one with a load of code in it.  This time around, you need to simply click in the IMG box (highlighted in red in the pic below), and this will automatically copy the text for you.  As OldenBUA says above, 'Copied' should briefly flash up inside the box.

- Come back to the Forum, and paste the text.  There is no need for any IMG tags, as they are already included in the text you have copied.  




The only bit which is different for you is how you copy and paste on a Mac.  On PC's with Windows, the copy shortcut is 'Ctrl' + 'C', and then to paste is 'Ctrl' and 'V'.  For Macs, it would appear to be the same thing, but substituting 'Ctrl' for the Apple or 'Command' key, to the left of your space bar.  There's some more info here on copy and paste:  http://www.wikihow.com/Copy-and-Paste-on-a-Mac

Let me know how you get on with it.

Re method 1

I had to go and change my settings on photobucket after they 'improved' it.
The little white boxes underneath the images had disappeared until I changed 'something'. ;)
Think it was 'checking' something like 'easy image' that did the trick.

Cheers - Phil.

A whole load of bumpf appeared between the two brackets, so I posted and the above is the result.
