It’s been an awful long time since I posted any pictures of my progress with Ty Mawr. So, here are some. My good friend Peter persuaded me to get rid of my turntable fiddle yard and use this third board for scenics. He then helped me design the track work based around the theme of a factory complex with a small disused quayside and associated buildings. There is still an awful lot to do as I have spent most of my time on buildings and then laid the track around them.

Sorry twice! My first photo has come out nice and big but the other five are small. Perhaps a kind member might be able to sort this out for me. I have the IT skills of a one year old (which is probably an insult to a one year old!)

The pictures, and the progress, are good.
On sizing, did your ‘glamorous assistant’ change the sizing option box by any chance?
I have to say, I rarely use the forum photo tool, preferring to post a link to Flickr (photo hosting site) which is free for up to 1000 pictures. This gives a lot more control over picture sizing and produces high resolution photos.

Oh, that’s it Steve - she did change the sizing option for the first picture. Next time, do I change the sizing option or do I leave it as it is?

I tend to use the ‘do not resize’ option with the forum system but with Flickr changing the size gives a larger and more viewable thumbnail. That saves the casual viewer having to open the pictures to see them properly.
