I did have a prob with images loading!! Mine was down to size of the pic. (Mb’s).After sanding the Mr Dissolved Putty I did another check by holding up the seams to the light. In spots, here and there, are faint traces of the seam so this time I used black Ammo slow dry c.a. This will be the final seam treatment, the next time will be after a black primer is applied when I expect to find additional treatment needed. As mentioned this will be a NMF so surface prep is even more essential than normal.
I will be engraving panel lines and rivets next.
I have tried taking several photos, all using the normal jpg I have always used, only one of these uploaded.
As below.

I really have no idea why some load and some don’t. There does not seem to be a pattern and I have tried a whole variety of things but it’s is very random.
Thanks DougI did have a prob with images loading!! Mine was down to size of the pic. (Mb’s).
I had to copy the image to the desktop, open in ‘Preview’, resize image which reduced a 4mb image down to under 1mb. ( I use a Mac so it would be different on another OS.
Then!! Upload the new resized image to this site!!
Hope you get it sorted.

Be careful to always either copy the file you’re going to resize, or open the original and click the File menu and then Duplicate (or press ⇧⌘S) before resizing on a Mac! This so you don’t accidentally reduce the original in size. You can most likely get the original size back if you have a Time Machine back-up (or by undoing before you close the Preview window with the image), but it’s far safer to work on a duplicate than having to go do that.I did have a prob with images loading!!

Yup, as Jakko says. (Running a Time Machine backup as I type!!). I have my pics saved in various places including yee 'Cloud'. Which appears to be the saviour of all things.

OTOH, when uploading from at least an iPhone or iPad, you can resize on the fly: select the photos you want to upload, and then at the bottom of the screen in which you select them, you can tap on something (I forget what it says, I don’t have my iPad here) that lets you choose whether to upload the photos at their original size, or as small, medium or large. “Large” works well here (and on most other modelling forums), as it sends photos of 1280×960 pixels, which is slightly bigger than what the forum resizes them to (1200 pixels along the longest side) and cuts about 75–90% off the file size. This not only saves upload time for you, but bandwidth for John as wel
