I am trying to upload photos, but it says "You must be logged in to use this feature". Any help?

I am having a similar issue to the original poster. I have stair-step cracks in the brick veneer above two first-floor windows. The cracks are barely noticeable with the naked eye. I am not super-concerned about those, but I have attached a picture of where the brick is moving away from the window below the rusted lintel (possibly due to the corroded lintel). I will post more pictures this evening when I get home. I am OK with the cracks, but I want to make sure I am not going to lose part of my brick veneer. This issue was present 4 years ago, but unfortunately the previous homeowner passed away and I cannot get any more info about it. He was quoted $2k back in 2011 to sand, caulk, and paint the lintels and other areas of the exterior. This quote seems high to me, and I was wondering what you all would recommend. I will post more pictures later on today.
