Sorry John. I just try to alter my avatar to make sure I told you right, uploaded another photo and this time their was no cropping facility.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Any chance of upping the point size of posts to the forum?

[vhgmcbuddy]

I had a problem in that my avatar that was crisp and in focus on the old site was fuzzy and squashed here. I assumed (wrongly) that my original image was too large and reduced the pixel count only to find that the avatar was then totally pixelated (spelling checker no help!!) so went the other way and tried importing it from the original sized image and using the sites cropping function – it worked!
What relevance it has to your problem I’m not sure, but it may be worth experimenting with the size of the original image.

Useful work round!
Thanks

[vhgmcbuddy]

Thanks Jean. Just done that for myself

Hello John.
I had a few attempts, Theirs two photos one of them has cropping facility’s. I think I cropped the larger photo to fit the smaller frame. Hope this helps, Nice to see you on hear John.

[vhgmcbuddy]

paul,really sorry but I don’t know what it is either. someone will come up with the answer rest assured.

Thanks simar-kid thats encouraging. But I dont have a pinch bolt to measure or try dies on! Do you remember what size it was please? Paul

[vhgmcbuddy]

yes I had the same problem with the pinch bolt,so I removed it from the machine and took it to an engineer. he then tried it on a die or two until we discovered what size it was then he lent me a tap to renew the threads on the machine. Job Done.
