Just thought I'd share a few more from the other day. No text links this time.

These are excellent. Much better posted in the thread so we can see them.

I agree, although I don't really like to clutter the forum with many different threads from one day out, so the text links were my compromise. ;)

Yeah, but the traffic involved in SimV visitors viewing pics on photobucket while on the site is more of a problem than clutter... hence the "no linking" rule. ;)

I know it's a drag to do multiple uploads, but "rules are rules".

BTW... these are excellent pics; I should mention that, ;D

The way I do it, either by text link or thumbnails (with the displayed thumbnail uploaded to Simviation), the Photobucket images aren't automatically loaded, as they would be if I posted them in image tags. You'd have to click the link yourself to take you to Photobucket. Surely there's no difference between that and posting a link to "www.google.com"? Correct me if I'm wrong...

Of course, if that is indeed against the rules, then you'll simply see less photos at a time from me. Like I say, I won't post "Waddington International Airshow: Part 20" (nor will I want to upload heaps of photos again to several different servers, for that matter). :P

But thanks anyway! ;D

Wonderful shots Tweek! Have you considered uploading to A.net? I'm thinking some of these will get accepted pretty quickly [smiley=thumbsup.gif] [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Nice to see zee Germans making a appearance with their Taifun too...

Did they end up calling it the Taifun, after all the effort to find a name that worked?

Considered, but haven't. I'd rather upload to Air Fighters (as per my signature), as I won't have to wait around for a week to be told my 2 photos have been rejected because they're a little soft around the serial number, or because the contrast is slightly out. Air Fighters still have standards, but unlike A.net, a good photo won't be rejected for such tiny (and sometimes even non-existent) faults.

Even so, appreciate the thought. :P

As for the Germans, I'm unsure whether it's officially known as the Taifun. Much the same as I'm unsure whether the Spanish is known as the Tifon. I get the feeling that one, or both, was simply thought up by an English speaker, who presumed they'd use the same name, just translated. It's probably just "EF2000" to them.

I think that Taifun has a slightly more historically painful association for our Teutonic friends  ::) ;)
