About Uncle Wilco

thanks to Banks for the cartoon wilco

Just to say I’m Wilco (or Uncle wilco, but wilco is just fine) hello to you and hope you find this blog useful/fulfilling or just a little bit of shed based wossname in your life, but more importantly Share your shed with our sheddies, then I will be happy

You may have come here to find out why I set up a website that shows it’s love to sheds, it’s simple I did it before someone else did!

When not looking at other people’s sheds I enjoy Photography Real-ale, Cooking all sorts of food (I did a bit of pro cooking in my youth) and I would probably like to retire or run my own sort of gastro pub - with brewery (it’s never going to happen)

I love Rock Music, metal and all sorts of heavy stuff and getting back into NWOBHM after a few years away.

You can read my other rubbish over at my own blog if you want.

1) To get your shed to readersheds.co.uk, click on this link

2) Add information about your shed, choose a shedtype and say a bit about yourself including your email address (you will need that to login and will get sent a password)

3) Make sure you add a minimum of two images- outside and inside shots of the shed would be great

- if the images don’t go up and you get an unhelpful error, then you need to resize them to around 800pixels wide and in JPG format, if they are straight from your digital camera then they will be too big for my shed server to handle (I’m not flickr you know!)

- If you don’t have any software to resize them on your computer, You can use an online service like picresize or even upload them to http://flickr.com/ as there system creates good quailty resized jpgs.

4) once the shed is on the system, then I will have to check it, before I make it live, so dont add it again, you should get an email to say it’s on the system

If there any issues then please let me know…
