Forum updates and new Features

The Big Kahuna and a few of us overworked staff members have been working behind the scenes to bring a few extra features and upgrades to the forum.

One of the things we’re doing is adding the moving Gallery section which will feature your completed builds. 
This should work much like our regular forum features and should be updatable by all y’all.   
In other words, no third party hosting, just upload directly to the forum. I dunno about y’all, but I love that feature all by itself. Nothing needed but just to upload to the forum. If only all forums could be that easy. 
Pay attention in the next bit as it becomes active, and post away!

Also, software updates are being incorporated on a regular basis as they become available.

Thanks!

Ernie

I've done as was instructed to get the Gallery online but there's a couple of issues flagged on install.

I've ticketed Invision, so hopefully this will happen sooner rather than later.

Otto von Bismarck looks on with approval.

As y’all know, there were problems with the update that kinda crashed the website for a couple days.  ButIT guys fixed it and now they’re working on the header and Gallery. 
 

Check your threads and verify all is well, y’all.  It’s all perfectly useable but just missing the pretty stuff.

Yes, thanks to everyone who works to keep this all on the go, the new updates look good.

As Ernie says being able to upload straight is great and saves having to deal with all the third party sites.

Question, for the Gallery, can any scale build be put into the gallery or just larger scales?  Asking for a friend... :piliot:

you know what we say around here… better to ask forgiveness than ask permission.  
 

We accept 1/48 as an LSM as well, but I go one step further as in seeing it as “LARGE scale models” instead of “LARGE SCALE models”, if that makes sense.

About the only thing I’m careful about is how I display the crooked cross. Obviously, on a model, it’s historical and accurate, but on, say, a plaque for a display base, I tend to be a bit more careful.  But there’s a whole lot of adulting going on on LSM, which really makes moderating this site 99.99% boredom, and .01% pissed off beyond belief. 😂
