Hi, Pradeep. You asked "Is your eBay auction work a hobby or is this what you do full time?" It is a hobby that has been a lot of fun and an interesting study in many things. It has allowed me to meet thousands of genuinely nice people, and it gives me freedom and funding to consider other camera-related projects...which I am doing. Suggestions are always welcome.

Pherdinand! How are you doing? Glad to hear the Yashica is still clicking. Your ID reminds me of the ad campaign slogan of a faucet maker about 15 years ago..."Pfister. The pfaucet with the pfunny name." Anybody else remember that? Why do odd things like that get hung in the sludge pfilter that pfunctions as my brain?

And that's probably why I don't have a Nikon SP nor a Leica M3 😉

Again, welcome !

Why do you use the "rich Man's" alternative? Just go out and get the original Canon GIII QL-17. 😡

Russ, you mean, risking a genuine poor man's Leica when there are plenty of M2s and M3s around to play with ?

😛 of course I have the G-III 17, sweet little thingie, love its results

Welcome Jon. I know you from the Zenit Camera user group and although I have so far not had the need to buy from you I know of your excellent reputation.

It's way overrated. Now when you use the Viv ES, you'll see some sharp s**t. How did you get that snap, to post so big?

c'mon guys🙂 it's just one step further in HTML land.
Put in the image tag like this: {img src="http://wherever.your.picture.is.jpg"} and it's done. Of course, replace the { with < and the } with > .

Russ:
You upload a picture somewhere in any size you want.
You right-click on it and choose "properties".
You see in the window that pops up, there a location where physically it is, something with http://...
Copy that in between the " signs in what i wrote above. IMG = image, SRC = source. It's not greek - not only, at least 😀


Done.

Example: img src="http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/image.php?u=194&dateline=1105930480" - if you put this between <> signs, here's the result:
<img src="http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/image.php?u=194&dateline=1105930480">

:bang: it does not work. Very strange.
I thought i know how to. 😡

 

[back alley]

so where's the pic?

i tried this a couple of times above and got 'greek'.
you may have noticed my 2 deleted posts.

Apparently, the normal HTML tags are not allowed here; but you can use {img}http://image.location.and.name.jpg {/img}
changing the { into [ and } into ]...

Sorry Oscar for abusing of your (very nice) picture, hehe.
