I agree Bear, that pile looks very precarious.  As someone with an architectural background I  strongly recommend hiring a structural engineer to shore up the foundation on that structure.  The cheaper alternative of course is to lighten the load by donating some kits to your fellow modelers (like me Big Smile [:D])Mischief [:-,]

You do know that someday that monster pile of kits is going to come crashing down on you, right? Laugh [(-D] If the cardboard fails on that Italeri kit about 12 from the bottom it's going to get messy. Black Eye [B)]

Actually, I'd like to put my vote in now for...the bottom one. Whatever it is that's holding that monstrosity up. Evil [}:)]

Hmmm...would it be inappropriate of me to ask around to see where people are going to be headed re:my stash? Sort of a primary before the election, if you will? Big Smile [:D]

Figured if it's going to be one of the more off-the-wall subjects I could start doing some research...or aftermarket parts buying. Wink [;)]

I'm not asking for everyone's top 3, but if you had to pick one...Question [?]

You can do either, but uploading to the forums is easier, I think.
To upload your photos, just go to your stash thread, press the
reply button, and then at the bottom underneath the text box,  
there is a button for "additional options" where you can upload
photos.

Couple of questions -

1) Are we going to be able to vote on our OWN lists? Wink [;)]

2) In order to put our kit thumbnails in there, do we host them as usual (photobucket or whatever) and link? Or is there a way to throw them right into the thread? 

Nice work!

UPDATE on the voting system:

Looks like almost everyone has been registered in the
voting system.  I still need to receive email addresses for
bbrowniii and ajb93 before I can register them. Your email
addresses will be kept secure, and will not even be used.

Everyone that has provided their stash list now has their
kits listed in a poll thread at the voting stystem.  The polls
are frozen, but you can post comments or photos.  I have
posted photos for my stash to give you guys an example,
and for future reference when voting day comes. 

Please check your lists for accuracy, and let me know if
I need to correct any information.

hkshooter, you listed two #5s in your list.  Please
let me know which of your 16 kits you would like removed
from the list.  Thanks.

Voting System works great.  This is much easier than sending you the names of the kits for people.  How did you keep your sanity Sir Il??
