hello. i guess this would be a good time for me to introduce myself. my name is patrick. some may know me from the CCF. i kept my username the same as the CCF on this site. first things first- i collect all types of lanterns except electric ones. i cant stand electrified lanterns. its just sad. oh and as ive had to say on the CCF, im 19 years old. the lanterns are the old things. i didnt consider that people would think im old when seeing my username . as of now ive got about 186 lanterns. i began collecting about 6 yrs ago and live in michigan. i am ICCC member #1182. ill stop explaining myself as this post would be very long if i kept going. i think im gonna like being part of the site. looks like a nice place to be!
Welcome Patrick, 186 is a really big collection ,post some pics of them,its nice to see what others have in their 'store' , i've collected about 25 pressure lamps ,, only a couple of colemans though....
ok ill get pictures up later. i post mainly from my phone and even though its android powered it wont let me use the direct upload thing. does photobucket work on this forum because i know how to do it and i wont be asking everyone "how do you use it?" i dont want to be a bother because i see that you guys are not using any hosting sites
Hi best way is to write your post then upload them directely to this site here is the tutorial http://0flo.com/index.php?threads/993 cheers pete
Hello Patrick, it's best crop your photos as much as possible and then use the free image optimiser on this website, the tab is at the top of the page. It's fairly simple to use, Jeff.
ill get pics up as soon as i can. i took them with my phone and even with the resizing software there too big . ill take some smaller ones and post.
Yep, but remember forum-preferred size is 640 pixels along the longest side - otherwise it gets difficult for me old eyes to see the details...
