This lot was sold in a auction in UK for £400 think it not bad money 

 

Looks like an FTF DBP there. 

What facebook page is that Sean?

Some interesting variations from this seller listed currently!!

I believe there were some previously unseen colours of some of these implements sold at Spalding on Saturday. Perhaps if Evert reads this he’ll post some pics. 

I invite all members to write reviews on their recent purchases in this board. It's been lurking in the background for quite a while but lets try and reignite it.

Example: Universal Hobbies 1/32 4984 Zetor Crystal 12011 (1972)

Example: Good points, bad points, what you like, dislike etc...A few words or many...

You'll see the new reaction options available to you now. It's there to enhance the forum but if abused, I will remove it. 

I had to disable it whilst we got the new theme installed. Should be back now.

Forum will be down later on as have been advised to move to a new update to help tidy things up a bit with some of the old infected files.

well done andy,hopefully no bitcoins passed hands to the buggers who locked us down, suspect you have a bit less hair now after it mind ,time for a gin or 3 i suspect

Nothing paid and yes, I think several gins were and continue to be consumed mate!

We're back online but there may be further issues whilst we now work to complete the restoration. Some images from early on (several years ago) are unfortunately lost. Please post in this topic if you find anything.

There continues to be some reliability issues with the forum, which is of course regrettable, but rest assured if it does go down, even if there is no immediate update (as frankly, it may not always be possible to post an immediate response), it will be back.  

Back online. Please let me know if you encounter any problems. It has taken several hours of coding to get us back this time so hopefully everything is just about as normal!

Well we're back again now. Some major issues were discovered after our last attempted maintenance so hopefully now we are all clear again. As always, let me know if you find any problems whilst browsing / posting.

We should now be on our nice shiny new server. It's taken much longer than planned but that now should be it. 

Mike, are you using your display name or username to log in, for example, you would use Mike R (Kentman) then your password

Some reference to aiding the issue.

In order for your photos to display the correct way round in the forum, please use this simple guide when taking photos with iPhone/iPads.

Using the normal camera function (ie: rear camera) make sure the bottom of the iPhone/buttons on the iPad are on the RIGHT side. If using the front camera (selfie photos), make sure the bottom of the iPhone/buttons on the iPad are on the LEFT side. This is because iPhone/Ipad camera software doesn't put the image orientation info into the photo (mistake/oversight on MS part) meaning the forum software can't tell which way up the photo is meant to be.Taking photos using our method above ensures the photos are displayed the correct way round.

Andy, sorry to bring this up yet again, but can you please look at the issue with pics being posted from smart phones / I pads and a likes, have just posted 8 odd pics and every ones upside down unless you double click on them in which case they expand and are the correct way up, it's starting to be a real pain in the backside viewing stuff on here of late due to it, it doesn't seem to occur when you post on other sites I also tried to re upload them via photo bucket and for some reason it will not show pics at all??? Seems to have been going on now since we updated the server ,I should also say I have taken the pics round all 4 axis of the I pads turning, and they all show upside down so it's not how the pics are taken from what I can tell 

What versions etc are you using mate. I will submit the info to the forum developer who perhaps can get to the bottom of it. 

The certificate issue should be resolved now. A setting on the forum needed changing. Do we have any other issues to report of late?

The certificate should automatically update over the next day or so. As for logging in, please remember to use your display name rather than username. 

We're still working through the little issues popping up but was wondering if there are any outstanding problems concerning pictures, uploading pictures, reading topics, navigating through topics etc. The ones that really make it impossible to use the forum.

Are we still getting problems with navigating through topics? I.e. white pages?
