    Display suggestion realized!

    A while back it was suggested that I display the livery tag I found. Great idea I thought. So after working on several variations I settled on one and can show it off a bit-so here's the final product. Thanks for looking!

    Sorry for the sideways pic, no matter how I rotate the pic it comes up facing either right or left

    What a great display. Items like your livery tag need to be proudly displayed and not kept in a box in a closet and that closet is on the second floor. Hope you get many more items to display.

    Thanks much! I pondered over multiple layouts and hope for the best way to show the tag along with the photos and still get the dates and location across. With the old photos, they didn't leave much room to play with. But I'm certainly pleased at the results!

    Nice display. Lol... You aren't posting this from the phone so idk why it wouldn't be correct orientation. I know sometimes with my phone I can turn the pic, but it still retains the orientation (like 90 degrees) info in the file details which it is sideways when I try to post it to FB.
