Soon, something happened when we were hacked into last weekend and we havnt had time to dig through the admin settings and figure this one out.
Well get it working as soon as possible. Until then you can still upload the pics to your own webspace and link them back here by using the picture link tool found right next to the picture upload tool

Yep, what Lance said, that button still works guys, it just makes you think harder. Which is good for you, really it is.

I better get down to the shop before I get in trouble.

Thanks Dave   It's one of the guitars I've made with tops made from the
soundboards of old pianos. This one is from a turn-of-the-century Cable
Nelson piano. I think there may be some Adi in there, as well as Sitka. I
typicaly get one full top out of a piano, (the only joints are the ones made
in the piano factory), and, then one more that I glued-up from the
remaining material.   This one is the glued-up top. so, this one is like a 6
piece I think.

I still make most my guitars from normal tops I purchase from suppliers,
but I really dig saving old pianos this way.

Dave, It really is an honor to work with this very old, and very
experienced wood.   It seems to me the guitars sound great, and they
have been some of the quickest to sell. People love that the guitar
comes with such great history.

Andy, the photo is from my very rudimentry, homemade, and incomplete
website.

I'm getting the Invalid Path message when trying to upload pics. Others seem to be successful.
Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Ray, the people who are posting pics successfully are linking to pics
that are on the web somewhere else. I don't think we can post from our
computers to this page yet. But I'll bet when it get's fixed we'll know it,
by the massive backlog of unposted photos that will turn up!!

The icon to link to pics is the one with the tree with no arrow.

I use photbucket.com. You copy the IMG code and paste it in the reply. It is very easy.
