C&C welcome

I would like to see a picture from the side to see the profile better.
I don't like the way when you open the pic it goes to that other site you need to sort out how to put you pictures up on this site properly.
I think I am going to like this but you need to sort you pictures out

Regards George

I'll see what I can do George with another pic,
but the site I use is photobucket, so I'm not sure there is any other way it can be displayed.

Hello John you can transfer the pics from Photobucket to the forum

Regards George

[John. B]

That's what I thought I was doing George.
I just clicked of the IMG thumb so as not to be a too large pic.
and this is the result

I used to use Photobucket and  was quite easy to size the pics and send them to the Forum. I now use Picasa 3 and I don't remember how I used to do it on Photobucket.

My Antivirus package is blocking Photobucket so I can't view the pictures, when  click on allow once I get all sorts of popups being displayed. Photobucket were chastised about this a while ago and it stoped but it looks like it's back again.

John.....Photobucket works fine if you follow a few simple steps....
1...open the image that you want to show
2...click on IMG - you will notice that the box to the right of IMG turns yellow and the word 'Copied' appears in it.
3...when you're writing your post on this forum, choose where you want the picture to appear, hold down the Ctrl key and press the 'V' key, this will copy the image into your post rather than copy a link to it.


hope it works for you...Les

Sorry for the delay George, got tucked up  




A more level view of all sides, and thanks to Les who has made it much easier to post my pics,
although I did click on the IMG thumb to keep the size down.

HI John

Lovely work and thank you for sharing. In relation to photobucket there is a button/tick box on it somewhere that stops people going to your photobucket gallery and only opens the picture in the forum.location you have posted the link. Not sure where it is now but I have done it myself as my photobucket gallery is private so people can not get into it and only view the specific picture I decide to post the link for. If I get time ( which is in short supply at the moment,  I will have a look for you and let you know how to do it.

Again, like what you are making and thanks for sharing.

I'm torn on this.

The shape is excellent, the finish equally so. The piercings are well done, but whatever you've used for the piercings has left some scorched marks and some not. This is what detracts from the overall effect just ever-so-slightly.

I've seen an NSK (dental drill) used and it leaves all blackened areas where it cuts because of it's high rotational speed, and that looks good. As sanding the piercings to remove the scorching would be almost impossible, you might think to colour all the cut faces black to make them all match.

I really like these, well done  John

Very nice I like the decoration just enough without going over board.
