Hope this works. Photo of the happy modeler with his Snap-Tite A-10. He did this one with only calling me for help once. I promised him that after he got one or two more of these under his belt he could "graduate" to models that involve glue and paint. I've already put together a little tool kit with some decent quality sprue cutters and sanding sticks. He's eager to add brushes and paint to his aresenal.
Again thanks to all who have posted with suggestions and words of encouragement. It is much appreciated.

Greg,
Putting Pics into your posts is not too tough once you do it a few times. One very good link is
This site shows examples using Photbucket (don’t use, IMHO), and Flickr. Note that the “View all sizes” mentioned in the above link is in a different location on the screen now- lower right corner- and it is a downward pointing Arrow. When you click it you can choose view all sizes as mentioned in the doogsmodels link and follow Instructions. However, if you still find discrepancies in the HOW-TO v/s the Web page or other problems , Please PM me. There are many ways to get the Picture link/URL.
Another link is

Quick Method:
For Flickr you can try the following …
Go to Flickr, Log in, and look for the Picture you want to post.
Flickers directions : Getting the photo URL
You can get the URL of your own images on Flickr.
1. Click on the photo you want to share to open it.
2. Click the Download icon .
3. Click View all sizes.
4. Select the size of photo you want.
5. Right-click the image Select Copy image URL. ( Copy Image Location)
You now have the Image Location data!
At your FSM Post find the “insert/edit” icon.
You can leave the Image Description and Dimensions lines Blank.
Click OK and the picture will appear in your Post wherever your Cursor was positioned.
If the Picture is too big/small you can click on a corner of the pic and drag to vary the Picture size.
So, Please Post pictures. There’s nothing like seeing your “Name in Print” as it were, to keep the interest going. I Think your "Happy Modeler" will love it. (You will probably want to "review" anything he uploads.)
Nino.
T.B., Guess you need to find a Hosting site and sign up. I'd be happy to help you thru the Ones and Zeros of the Computing World. Toughest part is choosing the Site for your Picture "Uploads".
