The operant word was "you" referring directly to you, Wayne. You are crawling about in the mud.

I can wash it off.

Seeing if pictures are back?

Nope. Not sure what the point is without pictures. Reading old men quibbling is not too exciting.

Host them somewhere else; I gave up on forums having adequate space and responsibility to hold photos a long time ago.

Frankly, with the virtually nonexistent response my photos got here, I hardly see the point, do you? I'll let you guys go back to your grumpy old men's club.

Take care, Murph. Thank you for the nice comments.

Wayne, thanks for noticing the details in the diner.

Honestly, posting them in Hobo Jungle is not the best location. Posting them in their own thread in the 3-rail or the 2-rail section wold be far better. I don't post photos of my models in the Club Car Lounge at all.

Also, the number of responses does not correlate with number that just looked and enjoyed.

I'm kind of disappointed in that comment. I hadn't seen Tramp around here in awhile. Ran across an article he wrote about going to a scale model contest. Posted the link to it a few pages back so members could see it. Posted a picture of Dirt Jon and Hev for memorial day.

And I posted the links here to OGR where Tramp posted his pictures. Not my fault it turned to $hit over there. I was looking forward to seeing more of Tramps pictures here but now we can't upload any pictures direct.

Maybe Tramp should sign up for the O Gauge Forum. They have plenty of bandwidth to upload direct. He will get plenty of compliments over there and they also hate OGR. A lot of back patting for those that desire it.

Hondo, sorry. My comment was just sour grapes. Nothing to do with you. You've been great. I have my own site. Just put up a post of the Lionel Visionline Challenger running across MANY bridges. Why not join us over there? Free coffee and beer.

Thanks for the invite. But I prefer not to have anything to do with Facebook...

I think as a whole we’re far from being grumpy old men. There are a lot of distractions taking place in our society now that are distracting us, or at least me, from relaxing and enjoying our hobby. Not to forget also the price of admission to our hobby is getting a bit ridiculous. Finding the time to study and scratch build for me is hard but it certainly is appealing as it seems the best bang for the buck anymore. Just my ramblings. :mrgreen:
