Wow, I ordered a manjushree sword saturday, and it arrived this afternoon! What a great surprise. Very handy, quite sharp. Balance is about 5" forward of the guard , a little point heavy but still lively. Very nice double fullers. handle is perfect for my big paws, could even get another hand on it if extra oompf is needed. The carving on the handle is very detailed The scabbard fits nice and tight, all in all a great sword with lots of "soul".

Dave, please excuse unnecessary smiley - just figured it out:D


You must find a host for your pics. Google "picure host" for a gazillion options.

You have to upload fom your C drive to host. They will usually supply a code that you cut & paste into your text.

If this is daunting, checkout the FAQ's most sites have.

If this still daunting, think of it as an important learning curve!!!

You need to be able to post pics. you CAN do it - we have:cool:

Some of us have wrinkles on wrinkles.:rolleyes:

Good luck:)

Dave in order to upload pix from your hard drive on the forums you have to be a paid user. I was a Basic Member before I became a moderator and I had limited picture posting privileges with the membership, it's only 10 bux a year. With the Gold Membership, 25 bux a year, you get a few more bytes privilege than a Basic Member does. Paid members can see the "Browse button" but non-paying members can't.

The other alternative is like Brent says. There are several free hosting sites. I think Photobucket is one. You should be able to Google it.
 
Ok, that's what I thought, I have been posting from our website, just wanted to be able to insert it directly into the post. thanks, guys, I'll post pics tonight
cheers,
