    A common user request during our earlier tests has been adding support for BBCode for formatting group posts, articles etc. BBCode is commonly used as formatting markup in other popular forums such as PHPBB.

    Example BBCode-formatted line

    I'm now working on including the support for BBCode across the entire iModeler site - in articles, comments, groups and activity stream.

    This thread is started for test purposes - and to keep you informed what's going on...

    This is a test input sent to us by @magnusf and pasted in this post "as is", with images referenced as BBCode tags.

    I know, I should finish my Focke-Wulfs but this doesn’t seem to happen and it is better that I build a Mustang than nothing, isn’t it? I picked up the new Airfix 1/72 Mustang last Friday and I intend to build it as a Swedish J 26. ”Blue N” was one of a pair of D-Mustangs that were painted in traditional Swedish green and grey as an experiment, the rest of them (150+) remained in natural metal.

    According to legend, ”Blue N” was among the fastest Mustangs in the Air Force. The experimental paint scheme weathered badly and the aircraft soon got a quite beat-up appearance. Its regular pilot carefully kept it that way so that higher rank pilots should keep their hands off it!


    Boxart: one marking alternative from ”Tuskegee Airmen”.


    Plastic is very nice without being exceptional. This is not Hasegawa or Tamiya but it is still good and I am quite content with that!


    A bit of glueing and fitting: parts fit well! There are two sets of flaps, one up and one down – and both of them fit very well! Something Hasegawa never has managed…


    After a bit of painting…

    :-H

    Looks lovely!

    The last few characters are a waveing smiley that I use over at Aeroscale, hardly a necessary thing to implement!

    @admin !

    Here's another one that is needed, for url!

    At the same time as I bought the Mustang I also picked up another one of Airfix´s latest offerings, the Spitfire 22

    Oooops! Already working, I must have messed up something!

    What was the code/format for including the images in the middle of the text.

    In my own post over in Prop Aviation i tried to add direct link from photobucket. They did show up, but were distorted/stretched.
