Photos of your boat.

I thought i would start up a thread of photos of members boats.

- Each member who wants to cen post one or two 'mug-shots' of there boat, for general interest, and to build up a bit of a reference.

- Please avoid hugly excessive file sizes where possable and be aware that post without images maybe removed from the thread for neatness.

 

Of cause i invite people to make comments/enquirys about peoples bots posted on here, but if they could be via pm or in a separate threads (or breifly, within your only post of your boat) that would be excellent!

 

Image sizes of around 640*480 pixels and around 150kb are ideal, and can be uploaded easly using ImageShack.

 

I think most people have seen a few photos of emilyanne in there time, but to kick it off.

 

Also see the sister thread "Photos of other members boats, spotting other cwf boats."

I thought Dan's idea was to have a thread where you could put a couple of pics of your boat on, which could be seen in the same topic.

Brilliant innit...Dan comes up with a great idea, a thread where you can look at a picture of peoples boats so you can put 'names to faces' so to speak ......... and what happens.

 

Maybe you'd better put a line in the top Dan.......any posts WITHOUT a picture of the owners boat will be deleted.

Only prob with this is you have to sign up for an account somewhere else and post yr pics there first.

 

I made this little uploader, I'll host them for free for anyone who'd like. They key is 'mrotter' but I'm not even checking it (lazy programmer). Upload a file then copy the link it gives you.

 

Of course after I did that I realised you could just upload your images to the gallery then copy the image url by right clicking on it (said I was lazy, I sad nothing about being clever). That's how I got this image from CarlIts pics of a boat I wish were mine.

Edited to say: Anyone want any part worns? The tyres have got to go.

 

Great looking boat Carl, are your days on the canals about to come to an end? Got a sneaky feeling I wont still be on them next year. Its definately becoming a hobby for the rich or cheaper housing solutions for many more.

 

Are we heading for canals without hobbyists?

I wonder if I might be allowed to take this topic in a slightly different direction.

I have been asked at short notice if I would give a talk on canals and all that happens there. If I do it, the talk it would be illustrated with photos using power point. The problem is I have few photos of life on the cut, each time I see something that inspires me I dont have the camera to hand or the batteries are flat. I would like to deal with the history of the system showing development. I would like to have access to photos of the old working boats, horse drawn and later engine powered. I would like to show the development of the different styles of boats from the past to what is around today. I would like to show the different types of locks and their paddle gear.

On this subject, the other day on the Bridgewater, I came across a boat that had once been an ice breaker that had been built in 1902, making her 105 years old and still being used. This time I did get a picture, so now I have to find a way of getting it from camera to my new computer.

So can anyone help with photos I could use, or can you point me in the direction of such material. I did of course see Emily Anne last Sunday and we exchanged a few polite words.

 

David.

PS Maybe you would like to email me direct instead of posting contributions on the Forum the choice is yours.

I wonder if...

Yes well that sounds very much fair enough.

- Although could i suggest that you make a separate thread, simply because i would like to keep this as clear as possible just having a post per member with associated photo(s).

- Of cause your welcome also to check this thread for potential material, and then approach people for permission to use there photos via PM email also.
