First armour kit

Here is my first ever armoured build. Trying to figure out the pic posting thing. What a drama I`m having to get pics to stay on here. Let`s try again....

Can anyone tell me what white fella magic I need to possess to make the multiple pic thing work on here? I can do multi pics on other forums I`m on but not here for some reason. Everytime I post a pic and then go get another one, when I return to the page I want to post on, it`s been wiped clean. Any help please?

Now this build, being my first piece of armour, is a practice piece of all the techniques I`ve read about as I don`t have any old armour. The turret, for example, has a filter on it where the rest doesn`t. The top deck has been brushed with crushed pastels(next time I`ll try the pigment wash) and then it was given an over spray of light buff.

I usually have two browser windows open, one is my gallery or photobucket etc. and the other is the thread I want to post in.

I just copy and paste each picture address to the post, below my text.

Thanks for the kind comments guys.
Ken, a brief run down on what I do might help with my problem.
1. Come to forum, open thread.
2. Go to photobucket, copy pic.
3. Return to opened thread and paste.
4. Return to photobucket, copy pic.
5. Return to thread to paste, but it`s now an empty new thread page.
6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 numerous times until depression sets in.

You didn't say how many windows you had open, try opening one for the forum and the other for (gasp!) Photobucket, that way you can toggle back and forth without losing what you have already put in. Works the same way for the TNT Gallery. Nice work, BTW!
Here's a link that may help too.

Iron Mike, I have been doing the very thing you are suggesting but still no success, because I post multi pics on other sites using the same technique but for some reason I can`t do it here. I will be trying your other suggestion for the gallery though. Many thanks for the sbs on that.
 
Always glad to offer assistance, hope you get it worked out. Here's another SBS

Well people, the good news for my sanity is that I`ve been able to create a gallery page(thanks Iron Mike) and have uploaded 5 pics in there if anyone`s interested. The bad news for my sanity though is I`m having the same problem getting them over to this thread. :angry:

Major, this is the raw code that Mike posted with your images. I don't understand the problem you are having. Please read the Step by Steps and if you have a specific question just ask. We have lots of helpful folks around here, if they can't answer I'll make up one for ya.
 
Hi major.

First let me congratulate you for such a great model. Looks very very fine!

Second, about the posting. Have you tried using a word processor? I usually write all my post om it, including the codes for the pictures, then select all the text in the WP and do a single copy paste to the forum.

Hope this helps somehow.
