Been around the COW forums for quite some time and have been collecting some Indy related stuff (Mark VII bags), though I have had to pay high prices, I mostly got what I wanted.

I look forward to be around as often as I can even for catching up with the latest news. This forums is very informative and you have some really helpful members.

Wonder, how do you attach pictures to the post?

Thanks Al & Adam,
I just did not find enough time to collect much other than bags of various sorts.
Been looking at shirts and almost bought one from Noel. Spoken to Noell several times and he was really helpful. I did get a bag from him though.
I might post a picture of my bag collection here if I know how.

To post pics, you need to have your images hosted online somewhere then copy the URL into your post. Highlight the URL you just copied then click Img in the message body line as part of the 'Post a reply' option.

Alternatively, you can use basic HTML code. You need to wrap a < and > at the start and end of this code, then add -

img src=http://www.YOUR PICTURES URL.com

And hopefully, that should work! Preview your post to make sure, but one of thiose two options should pan out for you.

Regards

Al

Clive-

If you're looking for a place to host pics, try www.photobucket.com.
Also, having a place to host pics ALSO gives you a place to host an avatar as well! :)

Also you can simply put Image immediately after the link to your picture (no spaces) and it comes up like this with your picture:

Clive, Welcome to the madness...

If photobucket doesn't host pictures big enough or you want someone to host antique-doctored versions of them, just send them to me.

Gentlemen.
Thanks for the warm welcome and I have seen a few of you. Yes some are experts on bags indeed. I even got one leather strap from Noel and one from Lee based on your info.
I did learn a lot and now is my chance to thank all of you. Thank You!

The phrase "Couldn't fight his way out of an MKVII bag" comes to mind immediately.

Swindi,
I sent the picture of my collection to Renderking for him to help me post it here or on a new thread. Very kind of Rederking.

Best wishes,

You have all been very kind and I appreciate all the help being offerd. Thank you.

Renderking, just wondering if my mail with attachment picture turned out OK? I could not get a URL for this shot and could do with your help in posting it or on a new thread.

Many thanks.

G'day Clive, welcome to COW. :tup:
Cool to know you got some gear from Noel. I'll look forward to those pics.

Did you say you almost got a shirt from him..?
So he is back in business?

I've been a way since Friday morning and I just got back yesterday afternoon.

This morning I uploaded the picture and made a clickable icon for it so the picture wouldn't hog up COW bandwidth. The text is in your e-mail box and all you have to do is just copy and paste it into a post and you're all set.

If you like I can do it for you in the tread about your bags.

Sorry Renderking, I am clumsy with posting pics. I tried and did not work. Could you give it a go? Really great of you! Thank you all your assistance.

Swindy, just stay posted just in case this comes up today your time.

I started a new thread about your bags so your "Welcome Thread" won't get hyjacked.
