When I start on my next saber iam gonna try this. anyone else want to give it a shot? I want to see how this would turn out for the mhs metal.

Hay X think this is good info for the thread index or a faq type section?

I have tried it and it works great! You may have to use touch up paint.

I have tried it and it works great! Custom Sabers won't let me give a link to my website to show you how my Obi Wan ANH weathered saber turned out and I can't figure out how to post pictures, but it works well.

if nothing else go to www.photobucket.com and upload them there and them post em.

See the picture below of the Obi Wan ANH I recently weathered. Let me know if you have any questions.

....I can't figure out how to post pictures, but it works well.



Right click on your pic, click "Properties", highlight the "URL Address" (it's the only thing that starts with "http://" ) Copy and Paste it into your post...


There's a bunch of buttons on the posting screen... "B" "i" "U" Quote"... Highlight the "URL" address you just pasted then click on the "Img" button.


Then when you press "Submit" the pic will appear.

pastor jedi, you put the link in between the img tags. it should look like
whatever you want

EDIT - you got it man :D

[PastorJedi]

It worked the second time, cool. thanks

[Firebird21]

Great! Now that we got that out of the way, now you've got to try to get those pics under 800 pixels. (500 is best) :wink:

But that's much more complicated that navigating the forum's toolbar. :?


That and the "Edit" and "Preview" buttons are your friends! :wink:

[PastorJedi]

Let me know how to reduce it to 500 pixels. Thanks!

With sites like photobucket, you go into your album and click on your pic. theres an options list at the top left of the pic. click on resize now remember when you resize the pic to a smaller one you cant make it bigger again. Well atleast I havent figured it out yet.

With sites like imagshack.us theres a dropbar under the browse bar. or in that area.

[PastorJedi]

I'll try. Thanks!
