Upload them to a free image hosting site eg. http://www.flickr.com/ , http://imageshack.us/ , http://photobucket.com/ or my host of choice, www.Pix.ie (http://www.Pix.ie) and link them to here. Sizes will be fine with the crop you have.

Denny,

By using Kilo Delta's suggestion, you can avoid the attachment storage limit of 10 Megs and is probably the best way to do it.

I don't maintain a seperate storage site like that so I normally size my attachments to 800 X 600 and save at 80%. I then attach them directly to my post. Every few months I go to my "Settings" and delete the older ones to free up more space on my account.

For nice pictures from the museum, 1024 might be the best size as the whole picture will still show up on most computer screens.

When you go to "Reply to Thread" and scroll down to "Manage Attachments" it will show you the dimensions and file size limits for attached files.
As it stands now it is 1280x768 and 976Kb for all the typical picture formats.

Larger is often seen as better, but unless the image is high res and/or detailed something smaller is fine (people can always request a larger image if they need it for reference) so save the original full-size ones.

Denny,.......nice photos. However,...I'm not familiar with the rotary engine or the two early aircraft. Could you shed some light on all three?

[DennyBoy]

Hi Brad Kaste

I´m glad you like them.

Now_little history of the aircraft in queston.

The Ask-Nyrop No.3 have a Gnôme rotary engine 50Hp. Built 1911. The first military aircraft to be built in Sweden. And is a Bleriot XXI copy.

The Breguet B1 have Salmon Canton-Unné "Radial" engine 85Hp / 1200 rpm, and vattercooled. The aircraft vas bought from France 1912 together with a Nieuport G.4, named M1 (B1 stod for Biplane No.1 & M1 for Monoplane No1).

Hi

I´m move over to Historical Wings Society forum.

I think is a more proper place to upload my aircraft pictures with random history.

Thanks Dennyboy. They are fine here, but we'll be sure to look for them at the historical fora too.
