Berube > http://www.goodphotos.com > Carpe/Michael, or whomever, In case anybody did not notice, which I can understand considering the high volume of meaningless posts Simon has made, the "idiot" word that I used are in quotes which is his own word. Now he may be a "pretty damn good photographer" but considering how he seems to spend most of his time on the LUG asking amateurish questions........well I wonder. And as far as bandwith when I see a string of 20 posts from Simon (and some others) that are one or two sentences with some cutsie remark (several included the word "idiot" referring to himself) about one of his previous posts, it becomes to much. There is only so much time in the day and.......oh forget it. Steve Annapolis
