Click link to go there. Am I the last to find James' page with clickable large images? Anyway, take a look and maybe you, like me, will be amazed at his skills and abilities to luthier away....

Way to go James Orr, nice looking box, sir.



If this photo doesn't show, then follow the link at the top. Wow.

Super nice job with the site; excellent pics, cool layout and execution for easy navigation. I like how you can go from one image to an adjacent one by clicking on one side of the image or the other. Very cool stuff!

Wow, what a beautifully organised, clean site, with EXCELLENT documentation of a talented luthier's build progress. James, sir, I take my hat off to you.

Ha, wow, thanks! I'm not ready to call myself talented yet. Afterall, I was
scrolling down to my thread to post how I've decided to hide the back
brace ends from sticking out under the binding    

I made my site because I wasn't sure how much I'd miss not pics if I didn't
take them. I'm happy to share the engine behind my gallery. It's very
very easy to use. You can also navigate it with the N, P, and X keys on
your keyboard.

Okay, how do you do that? Thanks James, maybe someone besides me is interested too.

Well, a more flexible version would be thickbox/">ThickBox

What I use is call lightbox2/">LightShow

Look over those pages and let me know what questions you have.

I'll try the hard URLS.

LightShow: http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/

Thickbox: http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/

Both are free and simple.

The larger images don't seem to work with Safari on a Mac.

Barry, thanks for letting me know. Would you mind telling me how you're
using your browser? Any configurations that could be different? I use
safari exclusively.

Seems OK on mine (Safari 2.0.4).

One problem I've noticed using Safari is that when posting links with long
URLs, somewhere between entering the URLs and previewing or posting, the
URLs don't wrap properly if they're too long to fit in the OLF compose
window. Blanks get added and the URL doesn't work when it's previewed or
posted. Just and FYI. Had the problem on four Macs using Safari, OK with
Firefox.
