Hi all, I've added a feature (on a suggestion from Surprise (Jan David) (http://shipmodeling.net/vb_forum/member.php?userid=2920) ) where adding to the Glossary Section will increase a member's post count (one count per term submitted)

Here's some examples:

One of JD's posts (http://shipmodeling.net/vb_forum/showthread.php?p=19187#post19187)
Glossary submission (http://shipmodeling.net/vb_forum/glossary.html#contrib) (near the bottom of the text box)
Search results (http://shipmodeling.net/vb_forum/glossary.php?do=dosearch&keywords=Surprise)

Cheers, John

Hopefully this will get more members to post glossary terms. The glossary has been kind of empty.

Hello Captain--

HOLD FAST !

Since my progress on the Holland sub has been slow of late, I've added some of the more obscure shipwright's terms to the glossary (some more obscure I daresay than Wirewolf's?) :wink: .
Most came from an excellent Google book that some of you may know about: THE ELEMENTS OF WOOD SHIP CONSTRUCTION by WH Curtis (http://books.google.com/books/pdf/The_Elements_of_Wood_Ship_Construction.pdf?id=oq5CAAAAIAAJ&output=pdf&sig=ACfU3U0oYyZ5lSm6Zo2ul1IrLFlPqhdQXA)
The attachment shows one of the many excellent illustrations in the book.

As for the Holland, I need to shoot some updated photos as I've added the interior bulkheads and the rear machinery space deck. I need to add the superstructure next (glued up last nite) so I can prime paint the hull inside and out. Then it'll be on to a very long list of interior and exterior details to be built and added.

I was just wondering if there could be a breif definition of Nautical Term and Shipwright Term on the submission form. I was second guessing myself when I added "Brackets" the sides of the gun carriage.
