In Re Rogue Gallery
 

Is it still operationable? It seems the exact same faces for years! Even Albert is included!!~~~Eric

And Pete too, and Orv and Ralph and Viggo...As well as several other members who've since passed on... :(

I never knew many of them, but I still find their posts/threads interesting...I've resurrected several of them... :)

I enjoy seeing their pictures...Except one... :D

I look forward to seeing your pic up there, Eric... ;)

Years ago I tried!
 

I don't know if its still accessable~You bring up a good point! Ive pulled up some of mine over ten year ago and was I stupid opperable word, 'was'. There are other parts few if any even know exist including owners pictue of lugers in their collection!!! Luger Treasure Grazing!! Most go directly to 'new posts' and miss everything! Check out "Old Owners Corner" I wonder if we can post are collections for all to see! We need Johns' direction on how to post~TKS Eric~~

I tried too, but apparently there were some sort of technical problems, never mind.
A part from the fact that I'm a lot younger than you mates ... lugerwise talking
(not of age)

:)

Sergio lugering is a state of mind! One we all share~~~Eric

The Rogue's Gallery needs to be reworked and brought up to date. Unfortunately, I have lost my login credentials for making changes there, so I can't make any modifications. :crying:

The "Old Owners Corner" is archive only... it was replaced when our software was upgraded with the ALBUM feature.

Perhaps John D. can enlighten me on how to log in so I can FTP changes for the main pages...


Got your ears on John D. :confused:

You did WHAT??? Lost your password??? ;)

Seriously - when I get home and am in front of the FTP server, I'll pop you a PM with login/password...

Best to you!

John Dunkle

Me and my big mouth!!!

Great!!! :D

I have a good pic of me that I used as an avatar this last Xmas; I'll dust it off... ;)

I'm looking forward to seeing some of the member's pics...Eric, Alvin, Olle... :)

But I gotta say...That pic of Gerry Tomek in the Rogues Gallery is pretty scary... :eek:

You obviously haven't met Gerry Tomek in person. He is a grizzly bear of a guy who can form diamonds with his hands. I definitely want him on my side for tackle football. :bigbye:

Actually, it has been so long since I had made any changes to the main pages that I think one of your FTP server upgrades may have just obsoleted my issued credentials... :)

My creds were SO OLD, that DOK had given them to me when he "retired" as webmaster. In any event, send me some new creds, and I will hop on those Rogues Gallery changes as soon as I can.

:cheers:

John Sabato's FTP access is now set....

I just thought I'd post this BEFORE John S. posted on "how it is magically fixed"...

Carry on - and no, I won't put up my ugly mug in the Rogue Gallery... Never have, and nope - probably won't ;)

Have fun :D

John D.

I'm sure its not ugly!!!

Thank goodness this thread doesn't have a voting poll, huh???

:roflmao:

:cheers:

Best to you!

John D.

I would substain!!! AND TAKE THE FIFTH~~

John D.

hmmm, I have lots of pictures of you John :)

But lets see, we need to modify the leather section that was done years ago, it says use 'Pecards" leather ...

I would like at some point to update the suffixes thingy

oh, and I would like user name and password so I could update simsonlugers.com :) since John S lost my access password too ;)

Me and my suggestions!! A forum that keeps on giving!!! PS Thanks for the privalege!

I will get even...

:bigbye:

:roflmao:

Now - Ed....

You are kidding - right??? I'm just home and working on another server (yesterday was "Microsoft UPDATE TUESDAY" - so I'm reeling to put everything back on track. Just another day..)

Hang on for a bit - and I'll PM you your IP - login - password for http://simsonlugers.com

Anyone else???

:cheers:

John D.

John two of your own are displayed in the 'Old Owners' Corner' Your 2 lugers are posted, a 1914 Erfurt and a BYF! Computers don't forget~~~

Changes??? You're not going to delete any pics are you??? :(

No photos will be deleted... just additions, and maybe a refreshed page layout... :)

Just how old are these pictures? When can we submit our more recent pics?? PS who has the most posts? Eric

The photos date back as early as 2002 or even earlier... You can send your desired photo for the Rogues Gallery to Lugerforum@gmail.com.

I will get the changes/additions done as fast as my schedule permits... kind busy at the moment.

I noticed a picture of Albert! He looks so innocent!!

...until proven guilty! :cheers:

I have a request/suggestion regarding the 'Rogues Gallery' [members pictures]...

Is there a way to have the members pics included in the Random Album Pictures displayed at the bottom of the main Forum page??? It's not clear whether the Rogues Gallery is an album or not...

http://www.lugerforum.com/rogues.html

I have made the Forum main page http://forum.lugerforum.com/ my Home Page, as I look forward to seeing what others have in their albums (Lugers, Mausers, Holsters, busted motorcycles) and when I see something interesting I click on it and then view the entire album...It beats trying to view some 11,350+ albums one by one...

The pics are quite amusing...One member looks like he should be pushing a shopping cart on skid row... :D

It's interesting how we form a mental picture of someone in our mind and then they look entirely different...Albert for instance...

I'm looking forward to Eric's pic...And maybe Alvin's... :p

Well. only for that you can see my picture, fairly recent, if you click on "luger.parabellum", and view my "public profile", actually I don't really know why I chose that dimpy name, probably because in my mind somewhat included the gorgeous Swiss Parabellums with the more "historical" Lugers of WWI and WWII

Sergio

I finally have a nice picture that was taken yesterday.. Where can I post it? Eric

Sergio, Ed Tinker can change your username. I had mine changed a few months back when I retired from the Postal Service. I thought the previous username "postino" was clever, I even had an auto license plate with that name on it, but absolutely no one in my town/station had the slightest idea what a 'postino' was... :rolleyes:

I dunno...I used an old pic of me [before they carved my face up] as my Xmas avatar...

...And here's a pic of my two ex-wives...Boy, was I glad to get away from them!!! :D

Yeah, she's ugly,,,but she sure can cook!!! :roflmao:

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Make an ugly woman your wife
So, from my personal point of view
get an ugly girl to marry you...

You better there both former prosecuters in Texas ~~~~http://www.tntdrama.com/series/cold-justice/ A good program~

Rich

It's very funny, how could you take a photo of both your ex wives together??

I'll try to post a recent photo where I'm with my wife.

Debby and Eric
 

Out to our favorite Italian restuarant, Bella Bella!

Wow! She's a beauty!!! :thumbup:

No, not my ex-wives...Just a joke. They're a pair of um 'nature's bachelorettes' from a cable TV show. Neither of my wives were knockouts, but they were both way cuter than these two... :p

(The rest of my post was from a popular song back in the 60's...) :D

thats awesome Eric I like your ship wreck medallion.

1714 Spanish Fleet
 

It was found off Ft Pierce the Spanish Fleet was lost in the hurricane in 1715. Its an eight Real mined in Potasi Bolivia by slave indians. There is a singular round small proof mark which King Philip IV ordered after he found he was being ripped of my his own assayer. He demanded all coins be reproofed and stamped. King Phillip ordered that his dishonest assayer to death. Some were found to be less or chipped off pieces of silver and less remelted and restruck. This is an exaple~ The crack was made when when restamped and the non conforming were rejected and returned to the furnance, Thus very rare. Early Us traded the spanish milled dollar as our currency. You will notice an "8" equivalent to our dollar. We are called the Treasure Coast for that reason!! My mistake 1715 fleet and dated 1690~~~Sorry I drifted off topic~

Eric

really beautiful medallion indeed!

Eric, I hate to tell you, but...You are a dead ringer for the most obnoxious auto salesman in New York State, "Billy" Fuccillo... :mad:

His ads are on every TV channel, he has his own loanshark company, 10 or 12 dealerships statewide, and his buzzword is "HUGE!"... :grr:

Other than that, you and the missus look quite pleasant... :p
