there are 2 ways to do it. first you can attach an image to your post, second is to use a photo back-up website like photobucket, imgur, tinypic, etc...

i use photobucket and link to a photo in my posts.

if you choose to attach an image a good rule of thumb would be to have that photo be less than 1MB.

I've had problems with photo attachments too. I'll have to give this a try!

I used tinypic last times, IT smaller it from 1mb size down to under 100 kb. Quality is still ok after.

Jasta, I think that might have been my issue. Image was too big.

if anyone needs any help with linking an image feel free to message me. it's a very easy thing to do but it is confusing at first. happy snapping! i'm curious to see some ww2 mission photos

I've flown both of the WWII planes--they're nice. The planes handle well, similar to df1. Not too many folks playing yet--at least when I fly in evenings.

I think Eagle has a WWII plane, right? If I run into him, I'll try and get some pics. I might need a few tips uploading the pics.

ya Eagle sure does have a WWII plane but i dunno i sure did put a lot of holes in it before

FINALLY it took. Had to drop it down to 300x220 and 101kb

testing again

nice lol u got the Wildchat

seems the issue is with the dimensions, but not the size of the file.

How did you upload? At least it worked!

Ok opened a photobucket account, let's try this again.

I did the "add file" then inserted it into the message, however I had to try several different sizes to get it to accept. Even when the size was too big, the file was under 1gb, but as you can see it's a small pic. So I opened a photobucket account and now it's a bigger image, and don't have to try and resize everything. What a pain!

Cool Eagle,nice pics, thx 4 that.
The speed seems not realistic, dont think u jump up to 500 km/h with upgrades, lol.
Anyway, really interesting, looking forward to it. ...

Some very impressive pics, Eagle! Next game I'll try and snap a few. I usually get so wrapped up in the game I forget to take a pic, especially with Sir Viper is firing on me..

Busy weekend for me, but I'll post some on both GI and WP soon!

I use a App called Tiny Pics. Super easy to use never fails to reformat pic and post. PM and I will walk you through it

With the 109 I have no upgrades and without a bomb my speed is 148 at level flight.

With the Wildchat I don't have full speed yet, and it has a level speed of 163 without bombs.

When I bought those planes, each were 450,000 and upgrades were 225,000, now he's reduced the costs for those of us that subscribe, and added two new planes. I would have waited if I had known, but oh well.

Now to save for the P40 and the Zero, each @ 285,000.

Why is my pilot's head sticking up through the canopy?




CC Rider's Zero on fire

awesome pics! thanks for posting them eagle

LoL Eagle, maybe you are 7 foot tall?

.
Nice pics. The Wildcat/Hellcat always looked kind of stubby to me in side view; kind of like the little brother of the Dauntless or Helldiver . . . not a lot of profile to shoot at compared to a lot of other fighters.

Of course it still looks sleek as a Corsair next to a Brewster Buffalo . . .
. .

Hey, The Ducky Monument is still there! Also this was a cool shootout.



Afterwards, i also checked out the hangar, risky landing with all those trees.

Nice vid's Arm, thx

Good to See you in game Hb .
We had a nice flying and shoot out. Think it was the third time ever we met in game. Lol

and we are back again! i've been a bit more active these days and have seen some gunners and wolves out there in the wild blue battlefield. good to see! for those in the USA i will wish happy birthday and hope your grills are hot and beers are cold.

in BIG 30 news most everyone got a rank up this week but one person to note is JesseJames who climbed up to the #6 spot! congrats!

Nice last game before bed tonight. I was German flying the 109, Airwolf was in the Zero

This draw feature is a big pain!

Cant it be that the game looks at all the points that all the players have earned on a given side and decide the winning side on that basis? if a player switches, then the points earned before the switch remain where they were earned.

Because the game already has provided proportionate weight to shooting a plane, shooting a pilot in parachute, shooting/bombing a tank and destroying hangars and bombing ships.
