My New Winter Diorama (1 Viewer)

It was my pleasure to post it. Actually posting it is easy. I have Microsoft Office Picture Manager and it lets you reduce the photo so that it fits the Board software. Sorry it took so long.

With apologies to Carlos and others who have tried to help this sad ol geezer, Pete currently gets dumped on because I can't get the ******* things to reduce either :( - can you post us thickies some tips Brad? :eek: Please?:cool:

Now i have seen your pics i was in the K&C warhouse when Tony was making that and he showed me how he got the detailing on the fences.

I first of all sprayed the fences with white paint then he glued snow on the areas that would have snow laying on them this is then followed by another layer of paint but on a finer mist

It looked real good, so much so i have asked him to make one for me!!

Kevin,

I can't speak for other software but as mentioned I have Microsoft Office Picture Manager. So if I want to reduce a picture to fit the board software, which can't take more than 97.7 KB, I go to Picture on top bar, click the resize option and check Custom Width and Height and usually pick around 500 to 550. You then need to save it and then just load it. Here's one I got from Gordon via Louis and followed that procedure.
 
Way to go Eliza (as might have been uttered by Prof. H. Higgins) :)
 
Say after me, "The rain in Tobruk stays mainly on the sand."

By George, he's got it. I feel a song coming up!
 
I'm a desert rat and I'm OK
I build bloody sangars and I sweat all day

There are no trees
I can't get a drink
I've sand in my pants
and I don't half stink

I'm a desert rat and I'm OK
I build bloody sangars and I sweat all day

I sit in my matilda
at least I have a view
until the sand starts blowing
and there's too much to do

Chorus.....

Yes but do you wear high heals, suspenders and a bra under your uniform?

I'm a desert rat and I'm OK
I build bloody sangars and I sweat all day

I'm swarmed by flies
it's much too hot
the sand in my pants
gives me such crotch rot

I'm a desert rat and I'm OK
I build bloody sangars and I sweat all day

I wish I was a girlie
just like my dear papa
Wear stockings and suspenders
and hang around in bars

I'm a desert rat and I'm OK
I build bloody sangars and I sweat all day

I've just seen Georgie Patton
twins colts so full of pearl
he sits just like a girlie
just like my sister 'earl'

I'm a desert rat and I'm OK
I build bloody sangars and I sweat all day

I've just met dear 'ol Monty
who told me to get fit
I've run around like crazy
but don't like it a bit

I'm a desert rat and I'm OK
I build bloody sangars and I sweat all day

Just wait 'til I reach Cairo
I'll go to the bazaar
and there I'll meet a girlie
Just like my dear papa....(fortissimo) :D :eek: :rolleyes: :confused:

(Brad - you've started something with the shrunk pics - tell me when you're bored)

Genious Kevin! But if you tell that to kids today they won't believe you!
