    Default SP10 finally complete

    In 2003 I bought an SP10 motor unit, I already had a HiFi News Accessory Club modified Decca London International from a few years prior, and I regret taking this long to complete it. Still very early days, but it sounds utterly charismatic, the only word I can find to describe it,

    Well that was a lot smaller than I expected, I'll go over the "how to's" tomorrow and get a properly sized version up.

    Cheers,

    Hi Hal,

    I'm very interested in seeing what you've done, but sadly, your picture is WAY too small...

    Any chance of a bigger, close-up picture? If you take a new picture and upload it through Imageshack or Photobucket, the size issue won't be a problem

    It will be next weekend before I can get to the pics gain - is Flickr a suitable host for AoS to link to? As you can see I'm not particularly computer savvy, and though photography is a hobby of mine all my stuff is set up for print.

    Imageshack or Photobucket would be better, though, so that the image(s) appear instantly on the screen, already enlarged to the right size, rather than one having to go through another site to do so

    Have a read at the instructions below, Hal, for posting your images on the forum - it's a doddle!
