Hi all,

I’ve just joined this Forum. I want to contribute, and also to broaden my knowledge of Matchbox models. It will be nice to share my pictures and ideas with everyone.

Hi Ken, welcome to the forum. There's lots of knowledgeable collectors here and it's a great place to learn more about our hobby. It would be great to see some photos and hear more about your ideas.

Hi John, thanks.

Right now I'm trying to figure out how to lose the scroll bars that appear with my pics. Even when I size down, they still appear. Any tips?

Welcome Ken,
It's a great forum with knowledgeable members.
Have fun exploring all the threads. A great place to start is the quick links page.

Hi Ken, Welcome to the forum.
Don't worry too much about the scroll bars, they disappear when you click the photo.
This is a brand new forum platform, we moved over from lefora only a couple of weeks ago after 4 years of being with them, although many of us have been friends for much longer on the mcch and the long defunct "inside the web" forum,

Hello matchbox360, may I also welcome you to the forum, you will make a lot of friends here.

As Nick says, just left click on any images that you see with the sliders, (those scroll bars), but if you want any tips on editing pictures or posting pictures, have a look in the Lounge topic headings for 'Editing your pictures' and one on 'Photography' I am sure you will learn something from them.

Have fun and yes, lets see some models,

Reagrds,
GHOSTHUNTER.

Thanks Nick and Ghosthunter, I've seen some cases where the scrolls dont show. I will try to find out how this is done. I.M.O. the scrolls detract from the pic and needlessly hide portions of it.

Thanks again for the welcome,

Ken
