Hello from France
« on: July 14, 2008, 12:15:46 PM »
Hi guys, i'm french, nobody's perfect. But I'm also a pulp, and colonial fanatic, collecting darkest africa, back of beyond, and all sorts of warmachines from outer space and far beyond.
I will post in a while, when I figured how to do, lots of pictures of my recent achievements.

Long life to this wonderful forum, special thanks to the prof, cheers all.

"Nobody's perfect?"

For saying that today of all days, you should be taken out and shot (or sent to the Guillotine).

thanks guys i'm really touch by your open minds.

I'm actually working on the "Abushiri revolt" in Tanzania a participation games for everybody.  ;D
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abushiri_Revolt
The rules must be explain in 5 minutes and the game, involving some 200 figures should be played in 1 or 1 and a half hour.
The action takes place around Pangani a nice little town near the coast.
I will open in a few days a topic in the colonial section.

Have a nice time all

PS / can somebody explain me how to easely post pictures ( I'm a bit lousy with this )

First, you should get an image hosting account. I recommend Photobucket, because it makes the whole process really easy and is, in itself, easy to use as well. Link: http://photobucket.com/

Once you have uploaded the pictures to the photobucket account, you will see four "slots" beneath the image thumbnail in the gallery. The bottommost one, called "IMG code" gives you a direct adress complete with image tags. Just click onto the adress field, press ctrl-c to copy it, then paste it into a post which you write here, either by ctrl-v or rightclick-"paste".



That´s it already.

Chris speaks the truth, except it is even simpler than that. Since they upgraded Photobucket a while back you don't even have to press Ctrl-C any more.

Just click on the gobbledegook in the box next to where it says "IMG Code" and it is automatically copied for you, ready to paste into your post.

Yes, it says that (FFx3 now, FFx2 then), but it doesn´t work with my browser - probably a security thing since I block most script applications by default. I use ctrl-c/ctrl-v to be on the safe side.

Ah, right-o, Chris. 

Use whichever works for you, Black-Bear. Both methods do the same thing.
