I can’t wait to see her...
But while the folder awaits moderation....

oh, and how does one insert pictures into their post? i am tired of the
old post-a-link method and would like to jazz up my posts a little, and
not have to depend on all the pics to clear mod on bricklink. thanks in
advance for any help you can offer.

First, you need to change the format of your post from from ‘plain text’ to
Formatted Text (FTX). You can then insert pictures using double angled brackets
(a pair of less than signs, then the image URL, then a pair of greater than
signs).
And to get the image URL, keep clicking on the image in brickshelf until you
have a URL that ends with ‘.jpg’. That’s the deep link.
There’s a handy quick reference guide to FTX on the right of the posting window
too.

oh, on an off note, Richie, i remember reading that you had a brit
ship in the works, just curious how thats coming along! always look
forward to seeing another brit set sail :-).

Ah... you speak of the prophecy of the ship that is to come. The one that will
bring balance to the Port.
Due to the impending geographical relocation of Port Brique (ie I’m moving
house), I have had less time and space for shipbuilding :-(. In fact, most of my
LEGO is in storage. I have only four ships at home (my wife would roll her
eyes at that ‘only’!). The Madame Thenardier is presently the serving French
flagship, and HMLBrig Demand the British!
However, one of those four ships is, in skeletal form, the 6th Rate HMLS
Frivolous. At the moment, she consists of fore, aft and four centre hull
sections, three masts (naturellement!) and a few props holding the masts in
place. I have visited the chandlers, and have most of what’s needed on hand...
so it’s just a matter of space and time...
Anyway, back to waiting for the Scimitar to be moderated!
Adieu
