Hmmm. Even reducing each image to less than 500kb I still cannot add them....any ideas? If I make them any smaller you wont really see them! I will see if the Board Administrator can advise....

Sorry for the delay in doing this, not what I wanted to do, but have uploaded some photos at this link - let me know if accessible and I can then add other photo's if people are interested.

Thanks for confirming. Still looking for suggestions/inputs on banners and flags to finish them off! All suggestions gratefully received.

I've never seen any picture of flags for the Moroccans, I'd use a generic Berber, Moor or Arabic flag, if I were you. Have you seen the Madist flags from Maverick Models. Link below. Or ask Barry to re-size his Ottoman flags to 15mm?

Hi Ray

Thanks for these suggestions. I am already "talking! with Stuart @ Maverick and also scouring other sources. As nothing much else has turned up, I think I will follow your suggestion on the generic Arab / Berber line.

After further research and discussions with Stuart @ Maverick Flags, I commissioned some variants of his Mahdist range and some new flags which arrived earlier today. I hope to get them added to the units over this long Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend; and will post some photos. David (B)

My good gaming friend Ray Boyles offered to "tidy-up the white edges" of my flags and he did an awesome job; extra photo's added at the Flickr page here https://www.flickr.com/photos/195591721 ... 0298767774.

Thanks - a quick Google search reveals many options - any guidance on what you use (i.e. nib/brush size) and where you source. TIA
