Don't Just Tell Us About The Pen You're Using, *show* Us!

Okay, I'm scared. I have the same phone, some computer, I dumped that keyboard and mouse --- but NEVER has my desk looked that clean.

Wow.. amazing pics. Great pen and greater cam

 

 

Here are a few first-time experimental shots of 3 of my faves using my new nikon dslr and a good macro lens. I'm NO photographer but I don't hate the first attempts...the pens being really nice does help tho! I use all 3 much of the time. - Doh! Forgot to add pics of the script!

Wrightwrite - your photos are not showing through.

Well, dang. It's showing up for me. I can't figure any other way to post them through the site. The gallery function doesn't seem to be working for me, or I can't figure it out.

Ty Upload, instead of Gallery. Much mo' better tool...

Go upload, but before, reduce size to no more than 999 kb.

I hate hijacking this thread for a help issue, but I guess that's what I have to do until this gets resolved.

 

Where is upload? I've looked through the FAQs, but I can't see any way to upload into any gallery. The only way I've even found the gallery is by searching for it. Is it an issue that I'm a new member? This is the list of tabs at the top for me:

• View New Content
• FPN Home
• Forums
• Classifieds
• Blogs
• Downloads
• Calendar
• Shop FPN

This is unendingly frustrating.

 

I've tried using all the photo/file storage sites I have, and I would rather not have to sign up for another just to post pictures on this forum.

 

OK, in editing this post, I've just now for the first time seen the "Full Editor" with attaching files available. Maybe this will work?

Excellent job! I admit the computer baffles me. I love combos! Especially heirloom combos...Nib smoothing to add to the restoration, that is awesome.

Thanks. I have one more that I'll have to get a new nib for, as one side of the nib's tip is missing. There's one up on eBay I'm watching for the moment.

 

...And I guess working at a pen store has the benefit (among others) of being able to learn how to do these repairs quickly and cheaply.

I personally just use the flickr app to snap the pics and then on my computer I grab the bbcode links from Flickr.com and paste them in my posts.

[betweenthelens]

Almost done. I'm going to tinker with it for a couple days.

Trading this for a rare golf club!

 

...then promptly selling that golf club and buying a Nakaya Naka-ai... if all goes well.

This is lovely!

The second drawing of Hanalei Bay I'm working on. I don't how I'm going to do the sky yet and the sand needs to be done, but I ran out of yellow! Good reason to shop. once there is ink filling the page I'll make sure the paper is crispy dry and then I'll go back and redraw the fine details with EF or F nibs and add some white gel.

WOW WOW WOW

I received my custom Shawn Newton a couple of days ago, so it is getting all the ink time.

Love it. I followed him making that on Instagram. Very nice.

Quite nice. I wish I could get the pencil ends to work in mine.
