Arley....I just use the manage attachments button (scroll down when you're in the edit window) and attach the file. An image file (jpg) will show up like a thumbnail.


Here's the scan of the fin pattern. Hopefully the resolution is OK. If not, please let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Just noticed the scan is upside down, fin leading edge is at bottom, you can see the balsa grain diredction so it shouldn't be an issue.

Dear Sadmug

Something went wrong and the Image did not come out will, put from what I could tale it was the same fin as Barone’s only centered. Do you have the other two fins or patterns, the Delta or Eagle. For the Lift-Kits are all the same it is just the fins that are different. There are three of the fin types in all. See image from catalog on thread number 31.

It looks fine on my end, Arley.

Do you have a TIFF viewer plugin for your browser? Lots of browsers, including the big guns, won't read TIFF files as a standard file format. The no fuss TIFF viewer plugin is free, and here:

A must have if you spend a lot of time on Jimz.

I just download them and convert them to PNG. PNG is lossless and generally makes those images about 10-20% smaller than they are as TIFFs.

See, I run Linux on my main computer, so Alternatiff doesn't help me a bit. I do have a TIFF viewer as a separate program, but that just kind of sucks.

Have you tried Xara Xtreme? It's a vector graphics program, but it should be able to import TIF images.

Xara is a Windows app, right? Like I said, I run Linux.
