Hi everyone. Getting back into trains and figured I start here. Tried to begin by posting my flat car with a picture and failed. I’ll keep reading and searching.
No worries,

Hi guys,
Wow, it’s great to hear from some of you so quickly. Once MLS lost all my pictures and my posts made no sense, I kinda lost interest in LS. I still have the “Rio Gracie” and run trains from time to time…
I am about to start my build of the CP Huntington Mini Masterclass build from July of 2005. 14 years go by fast. I have all the parts (I think) including pdf of the class chapters (thanks Dwight) and lasercut styrene parts from Rick Raively. I wish I could get access to some of the build forums from back then I am looking to document, share and ask for help along the way. I plan on doing the Gothic Cab version from 1860.
Thanks for the help to get pictures posting

Do you guys prefer 640x480 or 800x600?
No worries,

Ah, that will be a fun project to follow.

Video Embedding
This topic has to be re-mastered every time the site owner makes an upgrade to the software. For this incarnation the procedure is…
-
Grab the embed code from the YouTube video (directly on the video) right click in OPERA (copy embed code); right click in FireFox (Copy embed code); right click in Chrome (get embed code);right click in IE (get embed code).
-
In the reply window click on “insert/edit video” button in the top row (looks like a movie frame), and select “Embed”.
-
Paste the embed code (copied from YouTube) in the box and click “OK”.
That’s what we all found works now. Some day down the road we will have to find a new way for new software, but for now this works. Have fun!
Photo inserting
- Start by uploading your photos to a server. You have storage space in the Freight Shed on this web site.
- After they are uploaded, click on the file you want to open.
- Once it is opened, RIGHT click on the picture and select copy image location. DO NOT use the url in the address bar of your browser.
- Next click on the insert photo button in your post and paste the image location in the source line.
- Look at the dimensions. You will see them if you click on the first box (height). Make it 800 then click on the second box and it will automatically be correctly scaled.
- Then hit OK and your photo will be in your post.
Hey Tommy, welcome aboard, looking forward to your build.
I use 800 X 600 works well.
Hey Tommy great to read you again! How all is well with you and your family. Vic
Welcome to LSC Tommy!
