New guy here...

[Japes21]

Hey fellas, I just found this site when googling info on a kit. I like the looks of things here so I decided to join. I am a long time modeler who has been frequenting "other" modeling sites for years and I am always looking for new places to exchange ideas with like minded folks. I can't wait to jump right in.... BTW, is there a way to upload a custom avatar? I tried the suggested methods but found that my only options are to not have an avatar or pick a preloaded one. Anyway I hope to learn some things here and maybe I can help others as well.

Thanks,
Joe

Do you mean the avatar or siggy? If you want to set your avatar ( the small picture at the right top corner of your post ) go to your personal settings. There you will find the proper option. The size of the pic must be of 100x100 pixels in maximum.

Oh sorry... welcome to the site.

Welcome from England. Please deposit your stash of bacon with Jan at reception .... you'll find him under the reception desk. And by the way, he only understands Swettish. English, and other languages, make little sense to him.

Leaving Jan and Bacon tête-à-tête is something like allowing a fox to move into a chickenhouse.

Don't you mean, makes sense to me, but....next to no sense to you ladi....gentlemen?

 

[Airframes]

Aye, something like that !

Welcome aboard.

Hmmm though, modeling site? Not sure if I like the perception that this is first a modeling site, and 2nd a historical research site. Hmmm...

 

[Gnomey]

Welcome.

Welcome and Bacon

I'm sure you'll find us friendly (just don't mention some things to some members)

I agree. It happens to be a place with many very knowledgeable members, some being pilots or aircrew, active or retired, and some of whom also happen to be modellers, as an extension to their aviation interests.

A big welcome Joe from that little island way, way down south and west of you.

Welcome to the asylum Joe!

 

[N4521U]

Hmm, Joe eh? Sounds like an alias, we need to be wary. We need to assign some to keep tabs on this one.

 

[Lucky13]

The last one, that we assigned to keep tabs on a newbie, disappeared without trace, remember?

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

No.............................................................................I don't. You guys need to keep in the loop.
