Hi: How do I enter my pics and wording for the Dive 3 campaign. This the first time for me and I sure would appreciate some help. I am also entered in the Enterprise campaign, and am ready to start that one. Thanks

Hi, Robert!
Just type your text as usual in the reply box.
Best store your iamges in an online photobook such as pkhotobucket. Copy and paste the image URL into the reply box. Highlight the image URL and push the [img]-button underneath the reply box. That should be it.
Of cause you may post the pictures into your own pictuire account here at the kitmaker net work, but that is more complicated and I will leave this explanation to the more knowledgable folks.
Good luck,
Guido

Here are the photos of my Gato build. Pictures I have from online show the Harder without any numbers painted, at least that I can see. Sorry for the quality of the photos.






I didn't do too well with the etch on this. Lost or damaged a few parts. I need a bigger scale that I can see and handle better.

Breaking News! After some toil, tears and sweat
(luckily enough, blood wasn't necessary!), my type VII is "Frontreif" as (more or less) Erich Topp's U 552. Is full of inaccuracies, not least the nearly black bottom but ...
It's mine and it's finished!!!
Pics will follow tomorrow (I hope so, I don't want to be seen as a politician so, no promises!)
