saturn Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) It's nothing spectacular, but it was a Stupid Deal on Musicians Friend I jumped on. Been wanting an acoustic for awhile and I'll need one in September to use at Del Academy before Delfest. It's kind of like Bluegrass Band Camp and you have to provide your own instrument. 🙂 [img]https://i.imgur.com/phslihZ.jpg[/img] It's a G series in Wine Red. Plays and sound great so far. Haven't plugged it in yet. P.S. Anyone know why I can't get images to post any longer? I used to just Copy and Paste the link from Imgur but as you can see there's no photo....

Sgt. Pepper Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) Here ya go. Next time you post a pic from IMGUR do this. Remove both of these [img] from the beginning an end of the link [img]https://i.imgur.com/phslihZ.jpg[/img] so it looks like this in the post, https://i.imgur.com/phslihZ.jpg, and put the curser after the .jpg and hit enter and the photo will pop up. Congrats. Edited June 5, 2021 by Sgt. Pepper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brad1 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 You will be standing out in fine contrast to the other boring looking acoustic guitars at the Academy when you play. Congratulations! I hope she serves you well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats. Thank you. I wonder what's changed though. Like I said, I used to just Copy/Paste and presto, a photo appeared. Why can't things just stay the same? Now excuse me, I have to go yell at these kids on my lawn. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitefang In that thread I found that your 2 cents was: you liked that Michigan has a 10 cent deposit requirement on bottles and cans, and you found Takamines uncomfortable to play. I've read in a few places that Garth Brooks has more money than Croesus. So - I would guess his main and only criteria in choosing a guitar to perform with would be how well he likes it and not the cost. Now if his income were based on collecting 10 cent deposit cans instead, he might endorse a guitar he didn't like if he got it for free.

saturn Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 (edited) Test http://i.imgur.com/zYsqAcF.jpg See this is just me trying to figure out why photos won't work for me. Sgt Pepper showed me how to do it above, and it was working in other threads for awhile. Now it only provides a link to my Imgur rather than embedding the image like it's supposed to do. Maybe it's my laptop. I'm going to try it on a different computer and see if that works. Edited June 13, 2021 by saturn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub-T-123 Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 It’s kinda hard to explain without having your device in hand to show you, but you are linking the “album” and not the individual photo or something if you tap on the photo you want to send in Imgur it will pop up a little menu and you just click “copy link” and paste directly into the message here. Wait a sec and it will embed automatically Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Main takeaway from what I said is that you keep clicking on the actual photo you want in Imgur until it pops up a menu where you see a “copy link” button Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 Yes. I thank you both. I click the Copy tag next to the photo and I have removed the S from https but still the same result. It's really just the principle of the thing at this point. I know I'm making a bigger deal than it has to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
