And today I thought I'd put the back wheel on again with new spacers so I can get the measurements for my offset sprocket ? And also started on the rear brake M/C and pedal?

I have cataracts so my eyesight is diminishing and find it difficult to actually see up close without my glasses and wearing the welding helmet makes it worse   |

Yeah, I found the same when I started wearing reading glasses for close-up work. Now I struggle to see what I'm doing with a welding helmet on.

After trying about 10 different apps on my tablet ive had to admit defeat on posting pictures on here now? My iPad has given up on me now so I'm rather annoyed? When I last spoke with the Guvnor he mentioned he was upgrading this site? 🤞 but it's going to cost money? I'd gladly chip in with a donation and I am sure others will?

Ha! I've just paid the bill this week. Don't worry about it.
Yes, the site will be getting updated & relaunched later this year, but not till my truck's finished. I'm going to get the doors signwritten by Simon Pollock, (Nefarious Pinstriping), who lives locally & also happens to be an ex web designer. So when the doors are done That'll become the new logo & the background colour of the site will be changed from red to green to match the truck.
Steve, I just use the photo resizer app' on my phone to reduce photos to 600 x 600. If you're having problems, email them to me & I'll reduce them for you -although some cameras seem to use a different JPEG version, which isn't always compatible with the forum.

I use camera pic and either PC or laptop but sometimes the site will accept my (resized) photos and sometimes it won't,
One thing that I think makes a difference - with my resizer I have a choice whether to resize the original or make the resized one a copy, ie a new photo - the latter is better.
Also, once I've tried to add photos to a post and failed, it seems to remember and keep failing - so it's better to start again on a new post.
Sometimes none of the above work - which is why I rarely post pictures on here now!

It will get updated & reformatted to be more mobile phone friendly, promise. We're on a very old, outdated system here. I think it's still coal fired.

I think most of us are running outdated systems 🤣😎...I tried using my phone on MM last night, downloading an app to resize my pictures..typed out a few words, posted the picture, up came the warning sign..too large..then it deleted my post 🤬😡😱?? I was tempted to throw the phone at the wall

Maybe we've got a secret anti Stinkey setting I don't know about!
