We have upgraded the forum software to the latest version, in prep for a move to a new server.  If you see any problems, they are likely related.

General Discussion / Remembering Warbird - Alan Burnham

« on: May 25, 2021, 02:12:13 PM »

I was informed today that one of our long time members and fellow moderator of the site has passed away.  Alan Burnham was known as Warbird here on the site and was a wealth of knowledge, of which, he was always willing to share.  He was an early member of the site and with well over 620 posts, he was very active.  He helped moderate posts on this site and I assume others as well.  Some of you may have bought his book on Mausers, I know I did.
We salute Alan and wish him God Speed.

Site Technical Help or Site Feedback / MISSING Posts

« on: March 17, 2020, 01:21:43 PM »

I'm very sorry to state that I had messed up the forum yesterday and deleted any posts older than 90 days.  As such, I had to revert back to an older backup and many newer messages and posts have been lost.  I apologize for the problem.  Please repost your questions / answers if you can.  Also, any recent new members may need to recreate their logins. However, I am attempting to recreate those if possible.

We have upgraded the Forum software package today. Some users may have seen error messages during the 1 hour it was being worked on.  Please let me know if you see anything weird going on or error messages.  Shouldn't be any problems but you never know.

Thanks for the reply.  How can I upload more pictures?  I have about 15 more.

You can only add 4 at a time using the "ATTACH:" file option below the box where you type in your responses.  Its better to just link to the images on another service such as http://Flickr.com or http://photobucket.com/ and similar sites. 
More details at the link that 1914mauser suggested: [size=0px]http://www.mauserguns.com/forum/index.php/topic,121.0.html[/size][/color]


Thank you!

Site Technical Help or Site Feedback / Re: Problems with photo attachements attaching photos uploading

« on: May 18, 2016, 12:38:21 PM »

Its possible that your images are in CMYK mode in Photoshop.  Using the "Save For Web" method changes it to RGB which is for use on the web.  CMYK is for print.


I've not experienced this before myself.  But I'll keep an eye out for it.

When you see this, feel free to report the post, or if you have Moderation rights, ban the user.  There is no need to have people in our midst posting nonsense or Spammy messages.  This community is what we make of it.
