So PECO doesn't make Electrfrogs C55 anymore?

[OldEastRR]

nope .... still can't see the pics.

While we're talking about Peco track, Yankee Dabbler seems to have all its Peco stuff on sale (at the store, not eBay), and good prices, for anybody looking.

How about now??  I see 'em fine.  Maybe it's my VPN.  If this doesn't work, I'll turn it off and retry.

Cheerio!

Maybe because it's not a standard.

Okay..."Recommended Practice" then...

Negative.  No pictures still.

Bob,
I was able to see the initial set of photos (when some others could not).  After you re-uploaded them an no longer see them at all.  ALl show up as a gray European "do not enter" signs.  Come on Bob, you know it: it is a Google photo hosting thing.  Just upload them directly to the forum for posterity.  Those photos show some very interesting drawings - it would be worth having them viewable for as long ad the forum is around (not just for as long as Gooogle decides to share them out).

I can see them now except for the one on the #136 rail.   Strange...

I see nothing...

@peteski Peter...LOLOL!!  Yeah, it may be.  Frankly, I detest Google, and FB and all the other data-gathering websites and services that intrude into our lives without our permission. 

I'll give it a try with my VPN turned off, and if that doesn't work, then I'll use the forum.

Here goes! *fingers crossed*

Cheerio!

Okay...I changed the file formats to "jpg" (some were PNG's and GIF's), went to googlephotos.com and deleted the old pics, and re-uploaded the new Photoshopped versions, then copied their new locations to my post.  I kept photo #3 the same as it already was a "jpg".

If this works then okay, if not, please give me a detailed account of what you're seeing because I can see all of them just fine.  Are any of them visible?  Or, are all of them not visible?

Thanks...and if this doesn't work, then I'll do as Peter @peteski recommends.

Cheerio!

I still see none of them.
Maybe it has to do with how you are getting the link to paste in here.  The link, for example, for photo 3 is:

I never use Google photos, but isn't there a way to get a direct link to an actual .jpg file instead of this thing?

[ednadolski]

Nada here...

[Point353]

Ed, I re-uploaded my pic locations.  Did that do the trick??
Cheerio!

Try either of the methods described in the following links:

Thanks Y'all for the links etc.  However, over the past few years since Picasa turned into Google Photos, I've posted hundreds of images everywhere by clicking an opened image and then clicking "Copy image location" ...then pasting it here, and typing the square parentheses & "img" and "/img" at the front and back of it.  It's worked just fine until yesterday, sooooo...since I've been educating myself how to use TRW's photo posting protocol when I'm uploading photos while I'm at Nate's (Nato), I'll just do it that way, and please Peter @peteski at the same time....

Okay...here goes...

Alright...done.  What a royal PITA...and I can't regulate the size of the pics like I can using Google Photos.  Sorry about their extra-big size.

That should take care of the photos not being seen problem.

However, can anybody go to the other photos of the Peco Unifrog turnout here and tell me if those are visible??  I'd appreciate it.  I hope all of my photos that are at Google Photos haven't disappeared from TRW! 

Cheerio!
