when you do find it (try using the search feature maybe) just copy and paste the web page address from your the top of your browser window into a reply to this post, there are no special permissions or anything on nzff.org that would be stopping you viewing the images

It's a funny old do!
But with my zillions of years of also being a member of the; "Simviation" flight sim site, they have always had an inbuilt slot/store for all of our/their pictures, photos, etc!
Even on this NZFF forum, I have often used; "Simv's URL" to display my shots here! (Naughty!)....LOL...!
I've always thought it's a shame, that NZFF doesn't have their own slot for storing their/our; "pictorial stuff"!
Maybe it consumes too much "data", to be paid for, by NZFF!
Paul... :D ...!

...the site: simviation.com

If it's an older post, as hosting sites shut down and change their rules images will no longer be accessible. Some can be 'fixed', such as Postimage, which had a change of domain a while ago, so the older image URLs need to be tweaked.
But plenty of old images are gone for good.

That could be some of my West coast NZ scenery and been posted by either the late Ian Warren or myself and to my memory those images where hosted on the Australian hosting site OZx I think it was called but it folded taking all the images with it.
If I knew which Post it was and it was one of mine I may still have the images on my HDD and could upload them again for you.
