Thanks you Kyle and gorby! Made some small steps - this time in the right direction. Some new pics uploaded.
gorby, there are some special kits ... like the Curtiss Jenny from Lindberg. After looking into the box I quickly closed the lid and preordered the LukGraph kit 😉

In meantime I got a wonderful feedback from LukGraph 👍
And yes, LukGraph mentioned, that this is a difficult kit! So I suggest that if you want to build your first biplane, you should choose a different topic!

Of course the mentioned Activity only help, after one mate detected a new Spammer or Fake profile.
But this helps to get rid of them (after some more mates confirms) once he was detected.

That comes only into the list, if there is at least one spammer reported and wait for votes. If the spammer is kicked with enough votes the list entry is gone.
It is the same principle as with other filterings here - a empty element is not shown (e.g. if you filter for "Propeller" in "Category", the only "Aircraft" is displayed in "Group" as all other entries has 0 elements.
BTW: this album is used to explain my reports in "Feature requests". Many of them are fixed, so maybe I should delete those pics.

Bigger photos? New photos at a larger size or replacements of the originals with higher resolution versions?
I am looking to try and find out what the largest size SCM supports natively without compression so I will upload at that setting for speed and website surfing.

Wow, thank you mates for your wonderful comments!
Lochsa, I replaced the pictures by the identical one in identical order, only with higher resolution. I noticed that I have made higher resolution pictures for the Eduard Info journal last year (Eduard requested a higher resolution), so I uploaded them here too.
The new default size is now 2160 x 1440 pixels (3:2 format), with that size you avoid a black border. This was discussed a while ago in feature requests (see SCM Newsfeed ) as Scalemates is prepared for higher resolution screens. I think there are smaller pictures delivered to mobile devices (automatically done). If you use smaller size you get a warning in "Manage" album as the Teaser button will be red and not green.
Yes, that information should go into the FAQ.
I would like to replace at least the final album of my older projects by better photos. I still have the original pictures so this is possible, but that's a lot of effort editing all the images again.

It is an older model, but due to all the recent interest and the new likes I replaced all pictures by identical one, but much bigger size according to the new rules. As this shows much more detail it was worth the effort.
I really like pic 17 because it dhows the crazy rigging 🙂

So why give these kits away? You can build them later.
Ok, my stash is still growing and full, but the plastic doesn't change with time. Only the decals might become critical in the long run. I hope I can build them all. If not, the rest will go in the trash, maybe the models too. But I don't care about that.

I am guilty of having too big a stash and collecting rather than building. My stash would take decades to build at the rate I work.
So, every year I choose some that will never be built (example...how many Spitfires do I really need?) and give them away.
