There must be a reason, but why are the photos rotated? Just like a book, they are easier to view in the upright position.

Nice firearms Gordon and don't worry about the pictures, I am not perfect yet either.

You don't have to be perfect to know upside down from sideways.

Hey Gordon,
When you go to your photobucket page you will see a box on the lower right side with codes for sharing photographs. If you click on the box marked URL it will copy the photo. When you compose your text for a post here, just put the cursor below the text, right click and then click on paste. This will allow yor photos to show up in your post instead of having to follow a link. Very nice pistols by the way!
