Afternoon folks - I want to upload a couple of photos of my first wearthering job, but I can't seem to get the pic to attach to the "source" box, what am I doing wrong?

It is, and there's no need for it to be so.

I don't mean to split hairs, but like minded people log in here to converse with other like minded people. These conversations can not be found on the open internet, I hope. I program industrial robots and logic controllers and they are far easier to manipulate than loading a photo here. Sorry if I sturred the pot I just wanted honest opinion on my first weathering job :-)
Regards
Thank you for the step by step

They can infact be found using Google, though it is mostly hit or miss.

Well, not sure if it is the camera or not but I would have used a semi gloss or gloss black (maybe an oil based paint? might have to give that one a try) for oil. You might also try the Testors Createfx paint pens or paints (I think they have a tar or oil or something like that).
Might be a little overdone on the spillage, but thats more of a to taste type of thing. You might try using a prototype photo when weathering locomotives and rolling stock.
RR-picturearchives and RR-fallenflags have 100k plus photos between them.
There is also a morning sun book or 2 on tank cars; however it is ~$60, so not really a good buy unless you are modeling a lot of tank car served facilities.
From an operator stand point, the reporting marks are kind of hard to see. You may want to dial the overall weathering back a smidge if you are planning on using a car routing system (might also be the photo).
Noticed you removed the tank from the rest of the car. Dont forget to weather the rest of it, wheels included (be careful not to get paint on the axle points, paint there causes the car to roll poorly or not at all)
Thx JaBear,
I used a coat of dull coat and the washed with Acrylics I set up a new post for the weathering. Nothing but love
Hi Angelo:
I would try thinning your washes a lot more. You can always add a second coat.
If you don't have one yet, you might explore getting an air brush too. They are great tools.

They can, really. A google search for weathering opinions model railroader turns up one of your threads as the second hit.

LION has own webserver of him. Actually is very easy, since all Microsoft operating systems have a small built-in web server, but if you did not know that, then surely you are not qulified to use it or to provide the extra web security that it requires.
LION happens to be using Miscrosoft Server operating system on server of him, it allows me to run any number of websites from my server, but this is a moot point since I only have one Domain name (broadwaylion.com).
Anyway, posting a pic here is no more difficult than moving it to the "LION" folder and then putting the URL in the box here.
See. Simple. LIONS *like* Simple.

Google is how I found this forum. I was searching for model orange groves and I found a thread here about them.
