Scott Sanburn got his uploaded... these are smaller (640x480) pics but
faster loading:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=ssanburn

(he has his pics organized by day)

This shot of Scott's is a favorite of mine:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=28098 as it shows just how
MASSIVE the airport terminal is, and frames the monorail just emerging from
the terminal building. Chris assures me that apart from selective
compression and grey instead of white, that this is what the new DTW
terminal will look like.

This one: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=28097 is also a
fav as it shows just how badly the First Sax Player (soon to be First
Rancher) can gum up metro when he visits.

I am in the process of uploading as we speak and when I am done, mine will
be here:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=2837

Mine are huge (12x16hundred) so will be a lot slower to view. I just
uploaded a big zip and it failed to work so I have to do it image by image.

That would be your first clue that these images are *way* too big for most
folks.

Thanks for sharing Larry, but these pictures would be better if formatted
for downloading and viewing on a 'normal' system.  Not everyone has a
broadband connection and a 20" monitor...

Build On!

Thanks David.I actually had to finish it as the show  was going.It didn't
make the trip there to well.Most of it was done but before the show but
transporting it took a big toll on it.I will redesign it a little to make it
alot stronger.It also was the last thing i worked on as i wanted to make
sure everything else was ready.I figured if it wasn't done by show time i
would treat the crowd to a demonstration on how to build a little.

Since I haven't sat down and figured out how to automatically resize and
rename a bunch of pictures at once inside of the tool I use, the time to
reformat all of them wasn't available to me. So it came down to those or
none. I chose those rather than none.

Since you have thumbnails to choose from, you only pay the price for ones
you want to see. Since other people uploaded smaller ones, you don't have to
look at mine at all if large images get you all annoyed.

I could see a basis for your carping if I was the only source. But I wasn't.

And in case it's not apparant, Lar - some folks appreciate your larger pics,
so please don't assume from the negative comments that its not worth the
effort - it is.

Thanks,

James
