Some more pictures from Wales
« on: October 16, 2012, 09:48:18 AM »
Yo ladies, I stuck a couple of pics and comments up over on JPs thread re: his visit to the orme, but rather than get O/T I will put a few here too - mostly of the Orme sessions, but also a couple from another local fantastic slope area the "Lleyn peninsula"

Is there a way to easily resize images posted here, to smaller size, to prevent page overlap?

Hi Tim,

Thanks for sharing the photos  :D

For the image, you can upload them directly from your computer.
Max size is 800x800.

One photo link / line should sort you out :) (sorry, old system  :oops: )

Hope this helps

Hi Tim,

Sorry, edited your post to show the video.
The format for youtube videos is the full name like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjlWAMSmfh4

Youtu.be will not work as this isan extra youtube feature for a short link (not sure if I am clear here  :?: )

Success!  :D  :D

Quick question for you.
For the cutting, the fan, is it to cool down the wire here to avoid the foam to burn too much because of the tapper here?  :?:
