Old member, new update

Hi, I'm Luke based in Brighton.

Iv been a member for quite a while mainly looking up info and getting ideas from build profiles. I got my first Prelude (BB8 VTI H22a5 auto in Nighthawk Black) back in 2007 and used to be on the old Prelude UK site, I had it 8 years and then needed to get something more economical for commuting. As soon as I was working close to home again I got another Lude which is my current one (BB6 VTI H22a8 manual in Crystal Blue) that Iv had since August 2019. I'm going to set up a profile to record the build as its already come along quite far and Iv a lot more planned for it and I like the idea of having a record. I have just been brushing up on how to add images to the site (not sure if Flickr is the best option?) as I do have an Instagram build page as well that's been going since around April (BB6VTI).

Iv met a few members already as Iv been collecting parts over the last year, mainly through the Prelude UK Facebook page. I would like to get to know more of you and start to attend some shows (once we are allowed to leave the house!).

How my current one looks at the moment -

Hi and welcome back.

Your images work but I could not get on with Flickr, personally I use google photos, my phone automatically saves pictures on the cloud and I have installed an addon on the laptop to automatically create hot img links with just a right click on each picture.

that last shot in the countryside is a beautiful pic

i use imgur to upload pics for threads here etc, it seems free and easy to use

Thanks for the info, I will look into the other image options as flickrs a bit of a faff. Iv got a lot of photos to upload to the build thread soon.

I like the sound of this, what do I need to download. I use Google photos but imgur for forums.
Would be good to use what I already am.

Hagland - Im based in Woodingdean, I just moved over here from Hove a couple of months ago. The Prelude has gone from the street to a garage which is nice, hopefully slow down any rust! Yeah it would be good to meet.

Image wise I have tried imgur but would like to get the images to be bigger and not in the square frame, I did try google photos but couldn't figure out which link to use to make them work?
