Hey, I bet we all did that at one point. I ran a site like that for 6 months until someone said 'why all the broken images?'

Akula971, the[img] tags only work if the image ison a web server somewhere--you need to have a URL in between the tags, not a file pathname to your desktop.

If you don't have access to a web server, you should try attaching the image--look for a button that says 'manage attachments' when you make a new post. That stores the image on the Gaming Forums server.

:lol:

I once had a hard time figuring out how to post pics too, Akula so don't be offended by us having a little fun over the situation.

Here's a very easy way : http://www.imageshack.us/ got it from someone in this forum too, there are more free hosting services but this one is working great.

Just browse to where your picture is and host it, then just copy the [img] blabla [/img] braced link and paste it in your post in this forum.....

To do a number of pictures in one post without having to post them one at a time, first copy and paste the links of the pics in wordpad on your own PC and then copy all the links in one go and paste them it here in a post.

Is that the bovington tank? I thought that tiger was the only real one left that was in running order...all the others seem to have T34 chasis...

ManiK May 24th, 2004 03:44 PM

Re: Tiger pictures
 
Nice pics Akula! We were having fun with the guy who posted some pics of the tiger from Bovington on the FSM forums saying that it din't look realistic enough and could have used some weathering :lol:

Does it sound like FH's, someone said that no tiger engine was available so they had to use a jagdtiger engine.

PanzerAce May 24th, 2004 03:56 PM

Re: Tiger pictures
 
well, theres actually a guy that lives a couple of miles from my house who refubishes tanks and military vehicals and then runs them around his property. I was over there a few months ago and saw that he had a StugIII of some type being rebuilt then. He also has a Scud missile launcher. If i can ill try and get you guys some pics.

Not positive on this, but I think they ended up using a Maybach 230 which is from the panther (late modle tigers?) I believe. Its just a bored out version of the 200 I think, so I shouldent sound different. What did it sound like anyway?

Akula, Jan is that you?

Looking from your Sub pictures.. PeteKing said you where a Sub fantast :-)

I want to see some color pictures of a nice clean Panther tank!

Re: Tiger pictures
 
Thanks for posting them! A nice sunny day at Bovington :)
I thought the engine was a real refurbished Tiger one - but I could be wrong...

In fact - from the website:

The last step in this long and fascinating process
is the installation of the impressive
Maybach HL230P30 V-12
petrol engine.

Here Ron is putting the final touches
to the big power unit.

Those who have followed the story right through
will recall that this engine came from
the Tank Museum's Tiger II
and in reality would be more applicable
to late production Tiger I tanks.

http://www.tiger-tank.com/secure/journal25.htm

so there !! :)

Very interesting reading if you follow through the links...

I watched a video of that tiger being drove around at that bovington thing. The tiger had a LOT of popping noises coming the engine... and definitely detracted from the "scariness" of a tiger.

I wish they could get it up to par...

D_Day_Dawson May 24th, 2004 04:40 PM

Re: Tiger pictures
 
They had to use different air-filters - hence the popping... ah well I dunno!! :)

Akula971 May 24th, 2004 11:56 PM

Re: Tiger pictures
 
Got loads more pics of Panther, JagdPanther, PzkwII, PzkwIII, PzkwIV, Stug III, Hanomag. Video's will be posted to my site this week. I'll announce when.
Yeah It did pop a lot, but still impressive.

Awesome footage, Akula! I would have killed to be there.. Have you got any other vids or photos of the exhibition? And yeah, that Matilda seems to move many times faster than in FH.

Eglaerinion May 25th, 2004 02:47 PM

Re: Tiger pictures
 
Damn what the Tiger really is a beast and that matilda seems to move pretty fast.

I read it was running a little rough because a couple of the engine's cylinders weren't wired in due to some kind of problem (and to prevent damage).

Yes when it started up and ran we all thought there was a problem with either timing or carburation. Where did you read that? post a link please.

Re: Tiger pictures
 
Good videos!
Pity they didn't can the Tiger around a bit - but I suppose they've gotta take it easy :)
That Matilda is definitely speedier than the FH ones - something to fix I guess?
The Tiger engine did sound awful - nothing like I expected :( but at least it's running.

Re: Tiger pictures
 
In the museum they have a Pzkw III that you can climb into. What strikes you most is the lack of any room to move! Imagine 5 people in a car and than add a lot of heavy metal and tiny doors to get in and out off.
Looking out the turret vision slots you can see pretty much sod all too! no wonder they always had thier heads out of the cupola

Driver May 26th, 2004 09:27 AM

Re: Tiger pictures
 
Akula, that is soooo fucking sexy. Got any other pictures? How about a movie of the turret turning... But I still gotta say that the tiger moved slower than the matilda.
