Thread: Hello from Canberra

  1. #1

    Hello from Canberra

    Hi guys I’m new to the forum, I’m working on the IC1. It’s my first kit from pit bull, I’ve done a Lp kit from Artist guitars but it was basically just doing the belly carve and putting a crackle finish on it with some upgrades, i installed Grover locking tuners and a dime bucker bridge pickup controlled by dimarzio push pull volume pot for split coil.
    I’d like to upload some photos, Can anyone give me some pointers for uploading photos and the build diary etc ?
    I’ll upload some photos of the current IC1 build as well

    Hi, welcome aboard! Looking forward to seeing your photos.

    Best simple method I've found (if you don't have photoshop) is to open your images in Microsoft Paint and use the resize function (with aspect ratio locked) to resize the largest side to 1500 pixels.

    Save the image, and then it will work with the native "Insert Image" option on the forum.

    That's a quick and fairly painless way. Other options are to use Imgur or another image hosting site perhaps, but that can get a bit weird.

    Welcome Adsy. Nice job on the crackle finish.
    We have a handful of Canberrans on here and I have lived there a couple of times. Look forward to seeing your new project progress.

    Cheers,
    Mick
