No cockpit for this tough guy

Postby Scatterbrain Kid » Mon Jun 04, 2012 10:11 pm

Got to admire this pilot, I get vertigo just looking at these screenshots of the Rehberg/Lehman FS2004/FSX freeware glider, I think i'd definitely prefer being enclosed in a proper cockpit comfort zone-

Hey guys and moderators, are my glider pics in the first post displaying properly? I can't see the pics on my screen, all I see are two lines of link text, have i done something wrong?

Another thing:- i've got dozens of FSX screenshots and aviation photos at Photobucket (here's one page below), but they're all in GIF format because i find that gives the best resolution on my system, but they're all bigger than the 155kb forum size limit, so i can't post them.
They display fine in all the other gaming and simming forums I go into, so why can't Simviation handle them too?

Okay, Chuck advised me in a PM what to do, so let's try this one, it's 1000 wide and 149kb size so hopefully it should work-

Another couple of things I'd like to ask-

1- Can the font size in posts can be made bigger?
I know we can enlarge it by holding CTRL and rolling our mouse wheel, but that also expands screenshots and makes them overlap the edges of the screen. It's just the text i need to enlarge, not the pictures.

2- The forum text in posts is dark grey on a light grey background, making it hard to see, so is there any way to change the font colours to a straight black?
