I moved from PESO to PAW as I had some images which were quite good (IMO) but did not stand up on their own, if I post a PAW of say 12 then the better images tend to be commented on... john -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+john=mcmaster.co.nz at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Tina Manley Sent: Sunday, 22 March 2015 3:02 a.m. To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] ***SPAM*** Re: Tina's softness/sharpness/focus issue - might be solved, in part Also, in the last week - since last Sunday, I have posted 13 photos on the LUG. You have posted 70. Is the difference that you are sharing and I am asking for help? I asked before about posting them one at a time or saving them up and posting a group. The opinions seemed to be divided equally - some wanted one at at time, others preferred a group so I didn't change anything. Maybe I should.
