Help- Cleco ripped dimpled rivet hole.
Ok folks, let me thank you in advance for your advice. Never mind how it happened as it really chaps my rear every time I think about it. I have a dimpled rivet hole that has had a cleco ripped from it resulting in a torn rivet hole. It is located at the end of the trailing edge on the left elevator. How do I proceed short of replacing the skin. Also I'm trying to upload images for the first time. Here we go.

So much for my attempt to attach pictures.

I'm getting two things when I try to access the pictures.
1) It wants me to log into a Google account. 2) When I do, I get a 404 error trying to view your link. |
I too wanted to figure out how to post pics to this forum for future use (I'm a newbie to this forum). AND, I use google photo for my pics. Here's how I was able to post this picture of my work bench (see below).
1. Go to google photo site. 2. Open the specific photo you want to insert. 3. Right click your mouse on the photo displayed on your screen. 4. Choose option that says "Copy image address". 5. Next go back to VAF to your post and click on the "insert image" icon. 6. Right click and paste address into that box. 7. Click "preview post" below reply box and you should see your image in the preview before you send. I also learned that if you hit the "share" option in google photo and hit the option to "get link" and copy THAT address, it will not work! I had to right click directly on the picture to get a web address that would actually load the pic. Hope this helps! |
Forgot to mention one other thing that MIGHT prevent you from loading pics from google photo. Make sure the album that contains the pic you are trying to share is set up to share with others.
If you go to "more options" icon in upper right corner of google photo album, then pick the "share" option from the drop down menu. It will then give you a button to share photo with others without a google account. Anyone with the link can see the pic. Again, hope this helps you out. I know a picture is worth a thousand words and the ability to post a pic could be of great help in getting the advice we seek from others. |
The best way I have found is go to tinypic.com upload the image and copy the link it gives you here. Hope this helps. There is also directions on other photo sharing sites if you read the thread how to post pics at the top of general discussions (it's a sticky)

Here's a link to a great post regarding google pics.
I tried the tip on resizing a photo that's too large to fit properly and it worked GREAT! Was able to reduce size of pic so it fit onto screen very nicely. http://www.vansairforce.com/communit...d.php?t=134640 Hope I'm not responding too much, I'm just on the same learning curve about posting photos that you are and am passing along the tips as I figure them out. |
OR you can just use postimage.org
Load the image there and cut & paste their provided forum link. Takes 10 seconds. |
