Cool, I see the gallery is getting bigger.  :)

Now, you have to make some posts and tell the stories behind some of those pics.

When I went to look at your gallery there wasn't anything showing. Maybe linked to the wrong gallery ? It references "EasyMoney ", not Woodzy88

I would like to stress that the galleries are for the purpose of posting a photo to the forum, not for storage. I just discovered a mess yesterday by a poster in the timberframe board that I will somehow have to sort through. He has maybe a dozen posts with a dozen photos but he has uploaded almost 400 photos to our server. If we have people doing that, we will run out of room.  I am now forced to put on a limit on the amount o person can upload due to his actions. What scares me about that is, that someone starts deleting photos to make more room.

Woodzy, this post is in no way a reflection on you. Good job on posting the photos.  I only said something because it became topical with my discovery, and the title of your post fits.

If anyone is uploading photos that are not being used in a post PLEASE don't, and if you have, and they have not been used in a post, remove them.


I fixed the gallery link to Woodzy's gallery.

Guilty as as charged.  :(   I worked on a couple albums and have one more to do. I search the forum of each picture too make sure I did not use it. Probaly deleted 20 pictures so far. Sorry.

Hi Jeff,

Im new to forum and think its a great site . My father was a logger here in New Zealand and I worked with him in some incredibly steep and dangerous terrain.We were logging the native Rimu, Matai and Kiahikatea trees with winch bulldozer and doing our own roading. Many of the roads had to be blasted in and we had a few machines roll over but were lucky no one was killed. Many of the logs were in excess of 20 tons and sent out a lot of single log loads for a truck with jinker . I have a lot of great Photos of this era and would like to scan some when I get time to share with the forum including the story behind the picture of course. I take it what you have said once a photo has been used with a post then it is better to remove it is this correct?

No! Exactly the opposite. One you use a photo in the post, then you must never delete it or it will disappear from the post. Just don't upload any photos other than the ones you are going to put in a post at that time.

Yup, Now you have got the photo uploading sorted, you need to do some posts with the explanations and stories behind them.

Having seen the old photo album you are talking about, some of those certainly do need to be scanned and uploaded too, but make some posts with the pics you have now first.

I've seen your mill and logs etc, the others haven't.

It's interesting that Jeff brings this up.  I've gone to the random photos that show up on the front page and sometimes want to see the post that goes with them, only to find that they are not used in a post.  I've always only loaded pics I was using in a post.  I understood that from the beginning.  I have a hosting site for my other pics that I might use elsewhere.

Not a lambert , I rolled a TD 20C down a gully years ago ,had no set belt on . I had a foxterrier dog on with me . The dog fell off on the first roll and the dozer went over him. I hung onto the bottom of the blade lever and the throttle lever and managed to stay in the seat. The dozer did two and a half rolls and slapped its tracks into the bank on the other side of the gully then slowly rolled back onto its canopy. I got a bash on the head by a big logging shackle and acid burns from the batterys which are under the seat on the 20C . When I crawled out form the machine and was climbing back up the hill the sandstone started moving in front of me and up popped Toby my dog . He limped a bit but other wise was fine. we hauled the 20C out with an HD 16 we had and after checking it out and some minor repairs it was back at work.
