Latest cashback scheme
I think it's reasonable to take some precautions against fraud but it is just long-winded. I've always used BACS in UK as do most people and had to google to find where my IBAN code was, but that's fair enough if it's a standard European system. The receipt thing worries me as it is my proof of purc...

Another example of what your money is being wasted on

Login ?
I have had the same program, could it be something to do with Firefox settings? Colin PS. I sometimes have to login again during my session, after using the forward and back buttons.

Login ?
I'm permanently logged in and unless there's a server problem I never have to log in. Same on IE8 and Firefox. Don't forget to make sure the "remember me on this computer" box is ticked. Also, that's very literal and if you log in from elsewhere, such as a laptop, when you come back to your own c...

Compatible Canon ink carts?
I've got an Pixma 4200, and always used to use the original inks, but when the cost of a full set rose to over £50, and with all of the printing being non-colour critical stuff, I decided to give compatibles a go, getting them from , originally through Amazon, and subsequently through their website...

PPG acceptance warning
I found earlier today that I have had a second image accepted into the gallery :D:D - I was so chuffed that I decided to edit the photo description. I found to my great consternation that after editing, the image now shows as 'back in review' :(:( - I just hope it doesn't get rejected second time...

I did the exact same Haydn :oops:, I was worried for 2-3 weeks... There was no problem it went back in, phew. :D

PPG acceptance warning
Tim, Right on both counts - there was only one image just before I posted so the cathedral one must have gone back in as I was typing.

Freezing weather...my story!
I have a series of pictures from many years back, taken with a Super A, around North Cape or Murmansk (same trip) when one of my colleagues was desperate ... There is a frozen yellow arc from the snow getting nearer and nearer to his body - he continued and tried moving and leaning backwards unti...

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
Well, money is the primary aspect that separates amateurs from professionals. if I eanred a living from photography, then I would have to call myself a professional photographer because it would be my 'profession' i get piad to give advice on all apsects of construction, and I am a professional ...

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
I pick up a camera, odds are I'm getting paid. That makes me a pro. :wink: Hmmmm :mrgreen: I'll come back in on this later :D I do have some more thoughts - but I want to let this run for a bit first .

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
It seems that being a "professional" can mean three different things. The oxford english dictionary says of professional 1 relating to or belonging to a profession. 2 engaged in an activity as a paid occupation rather than as an amateur. 3 worthy of or appropriate to a professional person...

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
Don - I think you and I are on a different level :) I'll agree with you about those examples . OK let's turn back again to being paid for the 'job' Over here [ UK ] we have, as everyone knows, some very very good newspapers and some less good ones [ naming no names / titles :) ] Now th...

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
Don - I think you and I are on a different level :) Of course it's a pro shot - you have to produce the goods which satisfy your employers' wishes otherwise you don't get paid for the job - and you have to use your skills to ensure that what they want to get over is indeed portrayed in your res...

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
Just to hark back to an earlier comment. I teach archaeology and every year we churn out graduates clutching degrees. Are they competant 'professional' archaeologists? No, they don't have the experience. My guess is that something similar holds for photography: skills learnt through experience an...

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
Better a competent amateur than an incompetent "professional". At my youngest daughter's wedding, a "Professional" was engaged. He had all the right stuff: Brochure, Website, Client List, Square Swedish box thingy, etc. Me, I'm just the bride's father clutching an MZ-50. The "Professional" de...

OK - so what / who is a Pro ?
In the beginning - for me that would be the '60s - if one wanted some photographs taken that were better than snapshots, one engaged the services of a "Commercial Photographer". Working with a real pro was an eyeopener: tell the guy what you wanted, and he would show you what could be done to achie...
