In theory, copying a link from your photostream could be the issue - but it’s not due to that being personal to you as I could see the image

 

All I can think of is that the album is specifically set to allow links to be viewable and the main photo stream doesn't have that option.

 

Shame the technique can't be transferred to mobile.

I can't see those remotely hosted pics 😔

 

That's weird. 🤔

 

 

Can't seem to make the technique work from a mobile either 😕

I do like a tree photo

 

Cheers, i was rather pleased with it....I have it as the background on my folding phone...matches the fold perfectly 😁.   Its amazing what you can do with mobile  camera's. 

[My Attachments - image storage space]

Interesting that the first picture didn't show up now I'm on a different device.  It was one I  copied the address straight from my photo stream rather than the album.

 

 

Open the image full screen in Google photos, right click,  the select copy "image address" rather than "copy image"

I have a real thing for 7 Eleven sandwiches ... We have one literally next door to our apartment so I'm always sneaking in there for midnight snacks.

 

 

Not long ago we went to Nikko for a two day trip and it was gorgeous....  Managed to get some nice drone shots too.

I suspect he's making vids for posterity, so yeah - at least two cameras and possibly one on his aging father who can get his way round an airsoft field pretty quickly for a big fella.

 

Next time you're in Akihabara @son of dan, look in some second hand shops for GoPro 5's and above - or any native similar ones.  You won't get stiffed like you did here on eBay.  Ther ewas an awesome looking second-hand camera shop on the walk from the station to the TamTam shop - on the left side of the road.  Not sure if they'd do that kind of camera - but there would be other's I'm sure.  Might make a nice day out with Jiji?

[My Attachments - image storage space]

Woulds be easier if they could be linked to directly stored elsewhere like Google Photos or Photobucket etc.  

 

 

I couldn't make it work last time I tried.  Sure there must be a way....

 

 

 

Can you see it?

 

 

 

 

Or how about this one?

Take a Chuo Line limited express to Otsuki, then a Fujikyu train to Kawaguchiko, and then walk to Lake Kawaguchi. The view is amazing - I take my wife there for our anniversaries. Plus you're right by Mount Fuji so if the clouds aren't too low there are amazing pictures to be had.

 

I might knick that one for me and SWMBO.

Don't pay too much mind to Social Blade

 

Oh I am sure the financial numbers are miles out - I was comparing to the other Channel where I know he is supporting his family from his YouTube income despite much smaller subs - although I forgot to mention he does live streams with extra Superchat revenue too.  I assume too that his missus also has at least part time work.

 

According to Social Blade, I get between £3 and £41 a year - which i can assure you is a massive over exaggeration. 

 

At least we are all united under the opinion he is a hateful POS doing the hobby more harm than good. 😁

Vaguely remember him saying that he could survive without most of his disability payments when he got to 30K or so.  He's ex-Navy, so probably has a pension from that as he was invalided out.

Word to the wise - the flaps in the top are quite stiff so you may end up spilling BBs when you fill it up. Try trimming them back a bit.

 

I was pondering those.  My fingers are too thick to hold them down whilst filling too.

Date idea - take your lady friend to 41px, floor B1, TamTam Hobby building in Akiba. It's north of the station. They've got a wicked shooting range there and they'll let you (and her) test fire anything they've got on display (which seems to be every airsoft gun in existence I think).

 

I shot my first GBBR there and was immediately smitten. Then I saw the hairdryer to warm the mags back up...

 

Pretty sure that's where I bought my Auto 99 when we were there last christmas.  I've just extended my stay this year so hopefully will have some time to go back.

[Looking for people to play with in NE London]

London is weird, I've worked there for 24 years, lived there for 6 years after graduating and travel all around it.  No one really refers (in my experience) to "North East".  Its either East London,  or North..... which is weird as you do get South East. 

 

I do miss having the best range of choice when it comes to eating out, but that's about it.

 

 

Hitchin and Arlesey are pretty easy to get to on Public transport - get the Vicky Line to Finsbury Park then East Coast mainline.  Its just a matter of transporting pews and kit.

[V2 Gearbox exploded. One more spring to go?]

Yep... that's the anti reversal latch spring.

 

You'll have fun with that little fecker LOL

[Steiner CQT - thermal red dot]

The thought has occurred to me.  Might test it with one of my flash hiders.

 

Anyway...you better be in bed laddy.... its nearly 10pm there.

 none of that matters, as long as you're having fun in game. Plenty of us have a blast using the cheapest CYMAs, shotguns, revolvers and such. Airsoft isn't about having the bestest top-tier laser-beast gun, it's about the experience of taking and making hits with whatever you have to hand

 

 

1000%.   When talking to rentals looking at everyone's £700 load out I point out that my main pews are my cheapest because they give all the fun with none of the stress of breaking the expensive ones.  The expensive ones are there for looks and not much more.

Okay. What BB's should I be using outside? I don't want my bbs flying away at 0.20, would 0.25g be really good for outdoor and still hold a high fps

 

Try 0.25s to start with.  Your gun will be fine.  0.28s will punch through the foliage a bit better if the sites you play at have heavy cover.  I'd be very surprised if it couldn't lift 28s nicely.  No point going heavier.

[The 'What have you just bought' Thread]

Nothing special i know, but I've Just bought that silicone insert for the Odin.....wow!  It makes a mahoosive difference. 

 

Thinking I'm going to have another crack at using mid caps.  Have learnt that my Odin spits out 12 bbs for every turn, which hopefully will help me lift the curse of poorly feeding mags.
