Help for Fellow Ronin

I do not know what the rest of you do about posting pictures but I found a great (free) editing software several years ago and a few atricles which help me to use it correctly.

And a couple more articles that are worth a read

I hope you all have a look as I think Curt will find it easier if we can all do our own editing then all he has to do is post the pictures.
 

Personal Challenge "Par"

Curt has asked each of us to look are into our souls and set a target for this 3 month challenge, those who have had a look through my blog will spot I can put out a crazy amount of figures when I am in the mood so do not think me totally mad when you look below:

I have looked at what I want to do over the 3 months as a minimum and got a bit of a shock

84x SYW Cav
30x ECW Cav
70x FIW figures
110x SYW French Line Inf
24x Zulu War Brit
26x WW1 Brits
100 ish 10mm Sudan
150 ish 10mm Hussite army

 

This all totals up as 2540 points so I will aim a bit higher 3000 will be my Par mark

Figures figures everywhere

Well with me on a prep-a-thon ready for the great painting challenge I have a slight problem with storage space, I do not how the other guys are doing it but every spare surface in my painting room has figures or box's of figures or bags of figures. Pictures as proof
