Hi Doug,
Welcome aboard. Scratchbuilders are a rare species around here
What is this project you are planning?
Some of the other scratchbuilders tried to raise interest in a campaign but there wasn't enough takers ...
/ Robin
Campaign = a group of builders build something which fits into a theme, has to be a least ten participants, build, share images and tips and knowledge, have fun, get a little ribbon if you finish on time, themes can be anything from a specific manufacturer, anything used in logistics, shiny all metal aircraft, armoured cars with eight wheels to tanks used in the Korea war.

wow, that will be definitively worth to see!
For sharing photos I use www.tinypic.com which is free and quite easy to use. You just need to copy here the link they provide

I've not had any problems with posting photos directly from my KMN gallery, but I guess others have. you mileage may vary...

The available space on the free Kitmaker photo gallery is somewhat limited so a build blog might exhaust it.
