I am having trouble uploading pictures. I choose to load photos into my photos gallery, then after i push upload and it looks like they are uploading, it says this folder can not accept pictures! Any ideas?

I opened a Flikr account and upload all my pictures there. it is very simple. You view the image you want to post in fliker, right click and it shows size options to view. I set original, then right click again and select "copy image URL" and paste it on the armorama [img] dialog box.
Was I too confusing?

There has to be a way to upload them from my computer. I go the the area where is says "upload photos" into my photos folder and it acts like it's uploading the pictures. But it doesn't upload! And it says photos can not be loaded....wait for it....into my photos folder!

Maybe the photos are too heavy.

Funny stuff! No, it turns out it's because (i think) that I am not a subscriber, just a member. I have to upload the photos somewhere else and submit a link to them.

One interesting fact, the redish sand in the vignette was actually brought from Lebanon! Can't get more realistic than that!

Nicely done and pretty accurate as well. Were you in the military?

The whole vinette looks great. The figure sand groundwork ar really good.

The only area I think needs a bit more attention is th erooftop of teh building. It is way too clean. There should eb some dirt and debris up there. Maybe some more trash, something. It looks almost stark-white clean to me.
