He had to invert in anyway for us since he's in OZ

scottthehat, please turn off your caps lock - all capitals is seen as shouting and is not polite.

Did they have tooth brushes that long ago?? Or did you use a twig????

Well you've already done one thing right - you've joined the forum! You will find lots of help here, either by browsing or asking direct questions. Don't be put off by some of the replies, we all mean well honestly.
Maybe you would like to inaugurate the just joined section and introduce yourself to the masses also?

As for my top tips -don't be afraid to play with your DSLR - it costs you nothing to mess up photos. Learn to read the EXIF data so you can work out where you went wrong (or right!).
Buy the books Peter suggests - they are very helpful. You may also like Scott Kelby's two books on digital photography - heavily Canikon based but still applicable to any DSLR.

Sorry if my comments offended anyone - it wasn't intended. I asked the admin to add an introductions section where new members can say Hi even if they don't want to join in the discussion here - and they have added one, so hopefully we will be able to welcome new members properly in future.

I don't have my glasses handy or I would look it up for you.

I'm with Hefty on this - it is a Pentax/Samsung forum and I think the comp photos should be from Pentax/Samsung cameras. There are plenty of other forums around for other brands, what makes this forum is special is that it is only for Pentax/Samsung, and is why I stick around here.
It also narks me off that people join just to enter the competition and never contribute to the forum

It is good to see some new members here though - all that attention in the mag must be paying off!

I don't think carriage is free, but you do get a discount as a PU subscriber.
Personally I'd go for something UK based over something Hong Kong based, but that's just me.
