We need confidence in Pentax U.K. so how can we get this across to them? :::
I think it could be started from this site itself. Anyone want to jolt down a brief list of improvements? I think corrections is the word rather than improvements on certain things

I will start:

1-Notifications on the image gallery comments. (not sure why its not incorporated, it really doesn't seem to take much to do it)

2-The coding for the page itself needs tweaking, the smilies input takes the mouse all over the place once its clicked. Such a pain

Well, I will stop, or else I will incur the wrath of the gods ooops wrong term, I meant to write "of the conformists"

Amin,

I mean't to add. When you get your website sorted and the orders flood in for your wonderul pictures, if you need an accountant to do your books, give me a call!
Pentaxbabe, are you into running? , if you are then I will sack my present accountant and hire you. We used to go running together when we started years ago, that's how we discuss our accounts, on the run, but now for the past few months he has flipped and comes up with excuses and doesn't join me any more. Keeps fit the body and the books, think about it and we will have a deal .

Oh by the way, its on usual runs like these ones that I cook up ideas for the bubbles and smoke images

I am a "poor new pentax customer" and dont have a distorted (or negative reality) view of the brand.

I think this forum is pretty unbiased and very open minded and the fact that we are able to discuss anything quite openly (except raise arguments about prices on second hand equipment that forum members want to sell for) it is by itself a great thing.

I am quite hooked to this forum in fact .

Oh and about moaning? I am quite with the engineer on this point

I am getting high arleady with the smoke, how about you? lol
I started feeling it now , great one Amin. Can I ask now for smoke inside and outside the bubble ? , if you want you can make two bubbles as well .
We already had two bubbles in my last batch Piotro. Seems that this colourful smoke is pretty heavy for you , you got stoned pretty easy

Try this one, its colourless and lighter

Well, I am already stoned, so I guess I will continue tomorrow lol
Enjoy the smoke

Oh by the way Piotro, drop me a PM with your email address, I will forward you a description of how to make them, I got it somewhere on an e-mail that I had written to send it to someone who had asked me to explain it. It will save me writing it all over again. Quite happy to give you all the tips.

Thanks Stefan. That is really a motivational vote of confidence, . Thanks really a lot. I want to look forward to being able to do that. Don't know where to start though.

I do have a few more which are quite an improved version of these ones still , will get them up next time for some suggestions and constructive critiques from the helpful forum members like yourself .

This was really fun .

I have some other ideas that I have cooked up and want to get them worked out , this really kicked up the platform for them so I am very very happy

Colour applied to smoke during post processing.
