MCM Ohana (6/6)

I don't remember making this new year resolution but I've been on a bit of a concert binge this year. Saw Anoushka Shankar late March, Deep Sea Diver on April 10, and the Jordi Savall ensemble (15th and 16th century music) on the 15th. This has been an outlandish amount of fun. At least I'm not in a musical rut. There are still two more in the pipeline too. I don't recall seeing this particular addiction in the DSM either.

When you log in, there should be a "Forgot Password" link in the login dialog. That will get you a reset email sent to the email address we have for you. We run into problems when people change their email addresses and don't update their info in the forum. We can fix that my merging the two accounts, and updating the original one with the correct email address.

You should be able to download it now. We normally don't allow downloading, but are running a short experiment. -
Issue 226 is On Its Way
Dave Ambrose replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in Model Cars Magazine News and Discussions
This is completely unlike previous issues. But, I think we're in trouble when Canada Post is beating out the USPS for deliveries. -

My canary copy arrived today. Roughly 2-1/2 weeks later than usual. -

Dave Ambrose replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in Model Cars Magazine News and Discussions
There seem to be more delivery problems than we typically have with a mailed out issue. My canary issue hasn't arrived yet and it's usually here within 2 weeks of mail-out. As an aside, I'm having a lot more delivery problems than usual from the USPS, so something systemic is going on. We're trying to ascertain what. The Postmaster General recently resigned, effective immediately and I suspect they're related. -

Largest kit box ever?
Dave Ambrose replied to OldNYJim's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I was given this Wright Flyer 1 kit. This is the longest box in my stash and the next one up in my queue. Biggest box is a 1/72 scale XB-70 Valkyrie. -
Another piece of our childhood is going away.....

The Kenner Hydrodynamic Building set was one of my favorite toys. My dad was a chemical engineer so there might have been some undue influence. I never could build a decent oil refinery with it. 🙂 -
Please PM me and we'll get the accounts straightened out.

They are supposed to be reworking their model selection. Round 2 announced a distribution deal with Michael's a couple months ago. They probably have to switch paint suppliers, but I don't know who they're switching to. But something should be in the works.

Regarding drag and drop for photos -- That is likely a separate problem. I normally use Chrome on Windows 10/11, and the drag-n-drop is working on that browser. It's also working on Firefox. I will try Safari on Mac later today.

I just removed the limits, and things should go back to our previous behavior. Let me know if you encounter any problems.
-
I completely misinterpreted that question. I was thinking it was my personal limit. Let me try answering again. If you use the drag and drop feature to upload your pictures, you will get a message when you try to upload a file that's either individually too big, or collectively makes the post too big.

It gets ugly depending on circumstances. Generally speaking, I use facts to refute whatever nonsense is being presented to me as reality. 🙂

My apologies. I screwed up and didn't set some values correctly. I think it's fixed now. I'm sure you'll let me know if it isn't. 🙂 Shamefacedly yours, Dave
