Build Thread: Open Aire Aktiv
« on: June 01, 2017, 07:18:18 PM »
I started a new project, ummm, months ago but my job got in the way. I was forced to sub out the cabinet build but there is still plenty for me to do. I'll start posting pics in the next couple of days. Stay tuned.  8)

Please do. I don't have the skill set to do something like this, so it's a lot of fun for me follow the progress that you and Rich are making

SWEET!!! Some DIY audio porn coming. ;) I love seeing behind the scenes build as I don't have the skills to DIY nor the patience to DIY or even document the process. Have fun and thanks for sharing this with all of us.

Can't wait to see it all.

One thing I would like to see with the revamped site is the ability to post larger images. This resizing all the time is killing me  :duh

Hopefully the upgraded or new software will allow for larger photos

OK so no matter what I did I could not get AN to accept my photos. I resized them 3 different ways. NG. So it was easier just to post a build thread on AC. See link below.

Looks good!

AN photo gallery has been broken for years. Resizing the files won't matter. Attaching graphics files is the only way right now to post pics until repairs are affected.

It works if the file size is < 500kB.

So I misspoke, resizing the files does matter for posting attachments, but resizing will not help the gallery functions work. Only forum upgrade can fix that.

Updated this weekend. the fronts of the uppers are done the side panels nearly complete. shouldn't be long before I get to the finishing part. See AC for photos theres still a very restrictive limit on photo size here. Thanks.

Is that still the case with the new forum software?
