Winston Cooper Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) I just joined your online community and have fallen in love with this site and all of the members amazing creations. I recently got back into Lego after about a 15 year hiatus. I don't have too many sets or spare parts, but this site motivated me to tear apart the Lego creator set I have (6754 Family Home) and make my own creation. This was my FIRST attempt ever; so please, be kind! They are getting robbed! I could not figure out how to insert the pictures natively. Or I do not have permission to do that yet. Thanks mates!

MetroiD Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Hey Winston, welcome to Eurobricks! Your first attempt ever looks totally sweet, and I'm seeing a lot of things to love there! The trans-clear stream in particular is a very nice idea :) I've also noticed that you're working on a neighbourhood with the Emporium at its heart, so I'm sure we're bound to see some pretty exciting MOCs from you in the future!

Fuzzylegobricks Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Great Model! You will never have permission to upload photos like that. You need to use brickshelf and deeplink them HERE IS A TUTORIAL Hope that helps! Quote
Gareth Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 That's a neat little house you've built there!. Fits in well with the other one next to it. keep on bricking!. Quote
lightningtiger Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Nice work 'Winston' and welcome to EB, but that ladder is a little short eh ? Good job on that modular house, hope we all see more from you and Brick On ! Quote
MetroiD Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 You will never have permission to upload photos like that. You need to use brickshelf and deeplink them That does not have anything to do whatsoever with permission. And no one needs to use specifically Brickshelf in order to deeplink their pics - you can still use flickr and deeplink from there. The principle is exactly the same, but here's a simple tutorial: 1. Right-click on the picture in flickr, from "View all sizes" select the "Medium 640" option - although in this case you could also go with Large. Generally pics deeplinked on EB shouldn't be bigger than 800x600. 2. In the newly opened window with the pic in the respective resolution, right-click on it and (depending on what browser you're using): a) just use "Copy Image Location"; or b) click "Properties" and then copy the address from the "Location" field. 3. Using the above address, apply the [ img ] [ /img ] tags (no spaces) or just use the "Insert Image" button and you should be fine. Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Great "first" attempt W. Cooper indeed! Looks like a 15 year dark age didn't do anything to your ability Can't wait to see more! Keep up the great work and oh yeah, welcome to EB Quote
Vincent Kessels Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Welcome to Eurobrick Winston. That is a very nice attempt. And the pictures are also very good for a first attempt. Lego is difficult to difficult to take pictures of. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 I must agree that is indeed a pretty good first attempt at a MOC Winston! I'm sure as you go along and see more inspiration from other builders you'll be able to improve your building skills. Good work and keep it up! Quote
Winston Cooper Posted March 13, 2011 Author Posted March 13, 2011 A special thanks to everyone who have been so welcoming into this community. Also, thanks for all of the extra info on how to insert pictures more properly! Quote
wooootles Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Very nice pick of starting with 6754 to make your first MOC in x amount of years (Yes, I used 6754 as well to make my first MOC comeback to LEGO!) And, very nice use of pieces there. Good house that will fit modular styles. Quote
