Photo Posting: Click on “reply” then click on the upload picture icon (the small square with the mountain and sun profile.) in the reply box. You can also paste an image in to the reply box, or drag and drop an image into the reply box. Maximum photograph upload size is 4mb and 1500 pixels wide. It is strongly recommended you only upload .jpg, .jpeg, or .png file formats. Any files larger will automatically be rejected by the forum software. Feel free to post from a computer or mobile device. If you want a refresher course in what this means, google the terms. Please do not post videos without prior admin approval.
RULE NUMBER ONE! STAY ON TOPIC. The most common complaint members express to me is a post about something completely unrelated to the topic. If you want to talk about sports, the weather, or whatever (nobody cares about your political views so keep them to yourselves 100% of the time) start a new thread in the off-topic forum.
RULE NUMBER TWO! NEVER post a photograph in somebody’s thread. Start your own thread.
RULE NUMBER THREE! NEVER post a link unless it is to a page on sierrawestscalemodels.com or back to THIS forum. All other links will be deleted. DO NOT post a link to the original forum.
Just some general rules posted below. You know the drill, a few people can’t be sensible and follow general rules so I gotta post these. Logging into to the forum is your acceptance of the rules. An admin will delete any posts that violate these rules without prior notification. Repeated violations will result in blocking and deletion of account without notice.
This is a private forum made available to SierraWest customers. Founded in April 2011, the SierraWest community has been the home to thousands of members. Please do not post topics about other manufacturer’s products or post photographs featuring other manufacturers products.
Political, religious, and controversial posts are not allowed and will be deleted by an admin.
Please refrain from using profanity. This forum is a reflection on me and my company.
Do not ask the admins to delete a post or thread you have made.
Please be respectful to all members - Disrespectful comments and annoying complaining is going to lead to an immediate account downgrade or outright ban. This forum is a lot to manage and takes time and energy away from production and new product development. Because this is the only official forum for SW products, I do not casually select people for moderators/admins. They have been on the forum for a long time and are very loyal customers and friends that know a lot about the brand and SW designs and history. I am very appreciative of everything they do and I can’t thank them enough.
Thank you again,
Brett Gallant
