While we are considering changes, maybe we could lower the time to 10pm so the judge can get to bed at a reasonable time ready for work

Of course, you're right that there is a place for it.
When I worked on a building site we did everything by the book, but then just messed around at every opportunity anyway. People will always find a way to get to their danger threshold. But it was also nice to know that the equipment itself was safe.

But give me a world without any nannies and jobsworths watching over us, any day.
BTW, I'm not saying all HSE bods are jobsworths, but if ever a job was created for busybodies, there's one for sure.

BoT, Still like the picture

That's amazing, thanks for posting.
I love the idea that there are still places where the HSE can't ruin all the fun

BTW, I should 'big up' the forum team for very quickly allowing more characters for the heading.
But the 'problem' remains for most titles, so, as you say Martin, it won't hurt to change the way they're written.

Well done Mike.
I couldn't decide what to do - I should have entered a video taken by this unused webcam in front of me, of every sodding day here for the last fortnight
Must break the cycle, must break the cycle, must...
If it's not Yellow Stone blinkin' park, it's bleedin' Venice or pesky Thailand. I managed to get out and walk the dog last week, so I mustn't grumble... rant, whine, moan, bleat, cry...

that's the best yet.
That looks properly cold and I would never know that was a scan.
If you increase the contrast until the trees are silhouetted it looks more contemporary, but I prefer the cold misty air and lower contrast of this one.

I would like to make a suggestion that we start reformatting our competition titles so that the pertinent info is in the first characters, so that we can identify the competition and whether it is a comments topic or the actual comp.
Here's my example from a few weeks back. (I copied mine from Lilly's before me)
'COMMENTS - MOVEMENT Fortnightly Competition'
Notice it says 'comments' first, then the competition name etc.

'competition' can be shortened to 'comp.'
I may be a grumpy git but it's really frustrating not being able to identify where I'm going
I have submitted a request for more chars in the title, but it will only partially help.
Thanks

Photoshop has an automated contact sheet function in the 'File' menu.
