That's a pretty plasma there. What model did you get?

It's the 58" Panasonic PZ800 model. It sure was a lot bigger in my HT than it seemed in the showroom of my local AV shop! Letting go of it for the first time and trusting the wall mount was a somewhat nervous moment for sure

VERY nice. I remember hefting my Father in law's 60" Kuro up on the wall. Even though i hung myself off the mount, it's still a moment of truth (and difficult to lift that high!)

The photo needs to be hosted somewhere on the web, such as at Picasa. The following will work with just about any photo on the web. For example, I did it with the Axiom logo above, which is nothing more than a photo, and got this:



In order to get the photo to appear in your post, you simply find the url of the photo itself by right clicking the photo and then clicking "Properties." In the small Properties window that pops up, copy the "address" to your clipboard.

In this case the address is http://lh5.ggpht.com/_XIiHWyawKlo/SdtRf2VmQZI/AAAAAAAADu4/Ys8y8XAt3q0/s640/IMG_3473.jpg - the url must end with a photo designation, i.e .jpg, .bmp, .gif, etc.).

Then paste the url into the Axiom posting form and surround it with image tags ([img] and [/img]) it should look like the following only without the spaces. There should be no spaces in the entire chain.

[img] http://lh5.ggpht.com/_XIiHWyawKlo/SdtRf2VmQZI/AAAAAAAADu4/Ys8y8XAt3q0/s640/IMG_3473.jpg [/img]

If I eliminate the spaces, I get this which, by the way, looks TERRIFIC!!!! Nice job!

Thank you Jack. It was the spaces that were the culprit - what a noob I am! So to prove i learned my lesson, here they are with the grills on!

Don't forget you can try using the "preview post" to see if links or photos are working before actually posting...

Mark, the preview was just showing me the link until I got the tip from Jack about making sure there were no spaces. I think I'm good to go now!

Seriously though, the install really looks fantastic. I love the speakers in the room of HT, but this look would be great for many people I know who hate the box look they associate with a HT, and in rooms where they just don't work, like a bed room, or home office.

Great install, and great product execution Axiom, really a home run.
