I try to open the page for instructions on posting pictures and keep getting "this page can't be displayed" Any suggestions? I have a bunch of construction pictures of my 1/2 scale mountain howitzer that I would like to post. Just got the wheels today.

I'm on dial-up; it has happened to me too.  When it does, I hit 'refresh' (MS Internet Explorer).  Then it loads.  Try it, it might work.

Let us know.

Thanks,

Tim,
Tried that and still no go. I'm on DSL and it tries to load but real slow. I've opened before but not in the last week or so. Should have printed the instructions when I had the chance!
Thanks
Steve

I can't get in it either.  I think the post that is linked is only a post with two more links.  It may be loaded with pictures.  I'll work on fixing it tonight.

For what it's worth, it loaded fine for me.  The only images are Graybeard's ad banners.  There are four links to other threads.  Only help I can give is keep trying; maybe your DSL provider is slowing down service to push you to pay for fiber like mine is.

However, the picture posting link is timing out for me.

One thing to check is Graybeard's FAQ's.

There are specific things for folks on one ISP or another that affect these interactions.

And then, it could be something else.

I upload my pics to
 http://www.huntingpictures.net
or
http://www.hunt101.com
then use the "img" button on the "post a reply" screen.
I may not be completely sane, but at least I don't think I have the power to influence the weather.

Yes there is a problem with the a post. I will get it fixed.

Just for the record you need to have you pictures lodged some where on the internet before you can post them on the board.  

I tried find the text I had saved from the post but couldn't.

After a bit of research I have found that some of the older posts are  MIA.  I have a message in to Graybeard to have his Tech person look into it.

What i have found missing are ourt phot albums and the picture posting instructions.  

We'll get them fix shortly.

The picture posting post is now fixed.  BPM&C Photo album links and Picture posting instructions

I am going to go in and do some editing in it and clean it up a bit.

Graybeard's is now offering free photo hosting so I want to update the post to reflect that and tell you how to use that feature. First I have to learn myself.
