vtsteam:
I'm unable to view in the browser all but the first two photo attachments in your post simplyloco. This is what I see, and those listed files won't display in the browser. They require downloading and then viewing in a separate graphics program. Some are tagged as jpgs, but are actually webP types. Something is not working correctly for these files in general.

vtsteam:
The problem seems to be that these are webp images instead of the standard jpegs. Even the files above with .jpg extensons are apparently mislabeled webp images.

While this forum software is not set up to block webp's being uploaded as attachments, it does not seem able to recognize them as images or handle them properly, and does not seem to generate the usual thumbnail, or enlarged inline view. It treats them as downloadable binary attachments.

As a suggestion, if you want your image attachments to be viewed normally on the forum make sure they are in the usual jpg, png, gif formats, and not the webp format. Your webp image attachments will not be displayed in many browsers of this forum. Also, changing the extension of a file to .jpg will not convert a webp to a jpg. They are different formats.

Kim:
Yeah, I found that too.  I could see the two in-line images OK (seem to be hosted on imgur).  But the rest of them I couldn't view, even if I downloaded them.  Seems like interesting pictures John, and would love to see them if you can post them in standard JPG format.

Didn't have a chance to tell you that I took my 60 boiler to Southern Welding under the arches next to Southern Meats as he does TIG and asked about putting the strip down with TIG. His comment was that the heat would probably melt the original silver solder so who knows???

I think it only works the other way.  If you had a repair to do to a TIG-welded boiler, you could safely use silver solder without risk to the welded joints.
