How do I post my pictures?

[ZombieJimC]

I would like to add pics of my customs here, but it doesnt seem to let me. At the bottom of the page it says I may not post attachments. Can anyone help me with this? This is way different that putting pics on ebay. Thanks, Jim

You are new and an administrator has to work some magic ( turn some knobs, push a couple buttons, activate atomic batteries for power) to unlock your account.

After 50 posts you can add pics directly, before that start up a Photobucket account (it is free) and just copy and paste the IMG links to your custom thread post.

That was a much better answer, except if you think you're just going to Spam other topics by posting: "This is my fifth post" and "This is my sixth post", etcetera, until you reach fifty, then an Administrator is likely going to turn a different set of knobs and push a different set of buttons and activate turbines for speed to boot your behind out of here. So, choose wisely.

In the meantime, activate that Photobucket account and (even if you already have one) start filling it with the photos you plan to share. Looking forward to seeing them.

Whether or not you found this helpful, I encourage you to post a "Thanks for the advice" comment because, dude, one more post towards 50!

Thanks SentientApe and Grimjohn. Im glad you told me. I just thought I was an idiot. SA, you crack me up. I never would have thought about 5th and 6th posts before. I would like to have all of the right knobs and buttons pushed and pulled. Thanks again!

And by the way SentientApe, cool use of a Fonzie body!!

Good point SA! I did not think of that.

With the friendliness of this community and the plethora of topics within these forums one can easily reach 50 legitimate posts in a short amount of time. For me, I still like using Photobucket to post pics of finished customs as it helps collect a running chronicle of the figures I complete.

Grimjohn, I will give that a try. I checked out your Photobucket link, and your customs are sweet! I especially like the WCA Vision amd the original Ghost Rider. I have wanted to do those for myself for a while now.

[Grimjohn]

Thank you Jim! And welcome to the forums, I look forward to seeing your customs

I see what you did there. Why use one post to say what you need when TWO can say it so much better?

Thirty-one posts to go, by my count....

And: Welcome to the Group.

Thanks SA & Gj. I have to say these forums are a lot of fun. I really enjoy reading the posts and checking out peoples custom figures. I was a member back in the 90s but I didnt post much, if at all. I dont even know what name I used. I was also a member of the Mego Mailing List way back in the old days. When all you had was that Toy Shop newspaper. I think thats what it was called. But, I do remember a lot of the names on here from back then. This is very cool! I wish I rejoined sooner!!
