Bigasshammm Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 This is an image I took at the Thunder Over Michigan air show last August. I cropped it since and cutout the ground and people and stuff but think it would make a cool banner. So if anyone with the know-how to do that could throw the words on there and modify the size that'd be great. Anyone is free to use this image as they see fit as well if they so desire. For the words just keep it simple as the name of the GB and the dates maybe. TIA Kris Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kostucha Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 All done, hope you enjoy it: A little editing done to get as much of the bombers in there as possilbe... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Army_Air_Force Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I've seen both of those Forts here in the UK. Liberty Belle a couple of years ago during the UK tour, and if that's Thunderbird following, I saw that airframe at Blackbush airport around 1982 before Doug Arnold sold it to the USA. Here's a grainy picture taken all those years ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kostucha Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Stephen, If you ever stumble on another bomber like that waiting to be sold, let me know... I've got a home, truck, wife, son, arm and leg I'm willing to trade up... Cheers! Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm using the same Font style and date format, but if you've got a picture that you want out there, with something different, let me know! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B-17 guy Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Ooooh, love it! Love all those pics!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kostucha Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) Ooooh, love it! Love all those pics!!!!!!!!! What about the banners? :) No, in all seriousness, the guys really posted up some amazing pictures of the old gal. If anyone's got any other pictures they'd like, let me know. I've also put up the banners up in the Group Build Banners Section to make life a little easier for everyone, and I'll keep throwing them in there as well as the banners come up. Cheers! Mark.

B-17 guy Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 So how can I put one of these in my sig line? I figured just copy/paste, but that's not working for me. Am I missing something? I want the head on one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kostucha Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) If you right click on the banner, and click on properties, you'll get the web address: This is Chuckie head on (flying) http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u282/ko...uckieBanner.jpg This is the B-17F head on (sitting on the ground) http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u282/ko...-17FBanner1.jpg Click on "My Controls" at the top of the page, then scroll down to "Edit My Signature", once the window opens up, you just click on the insert picture, paste the link in, and you're gold!

Kostucha Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 When you're updating your signature, you'll see a number of small icons just above the text box, the first one is for "bold" then "italics" then "underline"... the next one is to select your font style (the drop down window), right of that is a button with a green + in it, that's for a hyperlink, you want to click on the one right of that with a small picture icon in it. It is just left of the envelope icon with the green + in it. Once you click on that picture icon, a window will open up, and in that window it'll ask to put the URL address in there. That's where you want to paste "http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u282/kostucha/ChuckieBanner.jpg" into. Hope this helps. Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Army_Air_Force Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Here's a screen capture of my signature. The highlighted bit is the IMG codes for the picture. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
