Title: RARE pre-production Drawings and Clay models (CHALLENGER)
Post by: Cuda Cody on June 18, 2017, 06:16:50 PM
Here's the Challenger photos from the book @stevec (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/stevec_575)  found for us.   :banana:

This is a little different then before.  I have uploaded the high quality scans in two formats this time.  The normal easy to download PDF file and for the first time I've included an easy to preview Photo Gallery.  Please let me know if you like the Photo Gallery?

If this is something that works better for everyone I can go back and re-upload some of the previous guides and books in a similar way.

It's so cool to have these drawings & renderings for both models- special additions to the site for sure! I like the gallery set up, it's easier to see the content.

one pic is flipped - wonder if that was on purpose for the UK market?   :lurking:  GREAT PICS!!

Cool photos! Thank you Cody, the effort is well appreciated!

+1 Like for the photo gallery, as J-Code Jeni says, it makes it easier to see what's there.

Could everyone please   :please:  click this link and tell me if they can see the thumbnail photos okay?  And if you click them do they get larger and look good?

I've gotten some mixed reviews on the gallery working.  Since it works for me I need everyone help to look and let me know what you see.   :thankyou:

when I click on a picture nothing happens,,,, just a transparent black screen using google chrome if that factors into anything?

Thank you @Brads70 (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/brads70_12)   That is exactly what I was wondering.  I'm using Chrome too.  But I think I uploaded them in such high quality that it's taking to long for them to load up and people give up and close it.  Can you try again and give it a bit to see if it comes up?  The files are pretty big.  It should look like the screen shot attached:

Good to know.  I'll keep the scans smaller from now on and that should help.   :banana:

The photos were scanned at a large 1200 DPI.  I've learned not to do that any more.   :sorry:  But if you wait 15 to 30 seconds (in internet time it feels like 3 hours) then they should load up for you.
