I was a bit intimidated by the process at first, but, as Anvh says, if you upload an image to Photobucket (this is free) and then click on to the image in Photobucket, you will see a link in the IMG window which you simply copy and paste in to the Forum section that you wish to post on.
Simples!

Taken on the river Dart this afternoon.

I would have liked a less fussy background for the heron, but considering I was on a small boat with a running diesel, I thought it best to go for a reasonable DoF as a small boat is rather wobbly platform!

Oh, I do hate to get into this 'Is Pentax a Pro system'. I've had a glass (or three) of Isla Negra so I'm immune to all sorts of brickbats.
At last, a sensible response.

Any chance of hijacking this thread and starting a good old fashioned PF barney? It seems like ages since we had a good row.

All it takes is one bigoted posting....

Mike, can you tell me which features of the full CS4 are excluded from Elements 8?

I thought it already had abstract potential when I read the image as two amorous penguins.

At least a couple of times I have missed an ad for an item when it first appears in the classifieds, and by the time I spot it, the item is sold.
Would it be possible to set up a list of Forum members specific requirements, and automatically PM them when the item appears? To keep the list current, all requests would have to be updated monthly. Not only would this help buyers, but sellers are likely to realise a better price.

OK labnut, thanks for the clarification. The bench mounted camera supplied your 'control' readings?

An impressive study.
However, if I understand your test correctly, is a camera 'firmly clamped to a heavy workbench' going to replicate what happens when the camera is on the relatively flimsy tripod? Afterall, would not a well fixed camera resist a sgnificant of external movement, let alone that generated by the movement of the internal sensor?

Looks like the mast must go.
Thanks for all your comments.
