Missing members

[Njaco]

Its all good. Just the pics are a pain. I can handle the rest. Thanks.

Try the document. I would like to see how that works. I was thinking of doing something similar and making it a .pdf available to the members. I did that with BoB. The whole war might be year by year.

 

[horseUSA]

I will do it then.
The document may be a nice format.

 

[horseUSA]

Also has happened in the BoB thread. And the pics are now "attachments". This Day in the Battle of Britain

The images for the thread are now embedded in all posts as full size.

 

[michaelmaltby]

... nicely done, sir

 

[horseUSA]

Post a link to any other posts or threads which you think need their images embedded at end of post.

Another possibility would be to move the this day to a document. If you want I can copy some posts to a document and let you see if you like the format.
The nice thing is that it has a table of contents, whcih would work well with indexing the days as separate sections

I would be very interested to see that as well. I wanted to print and bind a hard copy of the whole thread. its a good piece of work and nice addition to the library. I started to do it by hand, but the document is huge....roughly 50 printed pages for each month that we covered in the 'this day in Europe" thread. Is there any way of condensing that....perhaps reducing image sizes and font sizes?

Njaco I see what you are saying about attachments and post headings

I can move those attachments as Full size at the bottom of the post. Would that be ok?

Also I can run some commands to change headings in the posts ex.
German: to Germany:
So that can be automated, which will mean don't ahve to edit.
Another thing I can setup is a date holder at the top of posts, which would make the edits easier. I can also look into setting up an automated editor for the dates.

Would you like me to implement any of these?

I don't know yet david if you've done this, but for my contributions to that thread, it would be a problem to move the photos to the bottom of the post. for me, the photos are part of the story, showing what each ship that was sunk actually looked like. I had intended to get a photo of each and every ship, but could find all of them. Still I found quite a few I think......

 

[horseUSA]

The only thing my script did was move photos from the Attachments box at the bottom of a post, which are attachments that haven't been inserted into the body of post, and embedded them into the body of the post.

If attachments were already embedded in the body of the post they weren't touched.
parsifal Please check to confirm this. If there are issues I can restore from a backup.

If I can get it into the document it will be easier to work with and maybe create a pdf output.

And without much fanfare, I'm back...
With the passing of Charles, I made a point to pay my respects.
My reasons for taking a LoA are longer than I care to discuss, but I like what David and Marcel have done to bring back the familiar look of the forum.

 

[Airframes]

Great to have you back - got any bacon ?

David did most of the work. Please give some credits to Wojtek as well. Of course he was involved in this as well.

Of course Herr Wojtek should be included, he's always been in the trenches doing his best and should be included!

Of course, old friend!
You know me better than that - I'd never arrive at the party empty-handed.
But if Jan tries to get a handfull, feel free to squeeze his head like a grape!

 

[Airframes]

Ah, breakfast !
B*gger off Jan, you bacon thief person !!
