Howdy from an X-native Californian here......Born in L.A. suburbs, moved to Oregon as a grade schooler, back to S.F. Bay area after the Navy, stayed until I retired and never looked back, once I was snuggled into the Mission Mtn. Range in N.W. Montana. It's nice to see a little more participation in this forum from some of my "Yankee"/Colonial brethern, I look forward to seeing what you have to post up. :thumb2:

Welcome Charles I too spent some years in the California coast down near Los Angeles and have now moved back to Western Pennsylvania. This forum is a wonderful source to not only enjoy the company of us fellow modelers but also offers a place to learn from some very skilled modelers and to sharpen your own skills. Enjoy and welcome

Okay, having perused the site to some degree I still can't figure out how to post in the diorama section. I am thinking that just signing up as a member doesn't allow you to do anything other than observe unless you become a supporter and pay? The small pop-up message box says (at least the way I read it) that paying eliminates the adverts? However, I guess it could be interpreted as paying allows you to participate, ie; post in threads other than the introductory thread. At any rate, (call me stupid?) I can't find a clear explanation. Please enlighten me.

Cheers,
C.

Welcome Charles. We're a friendly bunch here and lots of fun.

Feel free to ask any questions if you need to. In my year here I've found people so helpful and knowledgeable. I've certainly picked up lots of tips here
