The terms 'general chat' and 'guidelines are just far too ambiguous IMHO. A guideline is not a guideline if it's enforced, it then becomes a rule.
A possibility I've completely overlooked of course is that Louise may have asked for the thread to be deleted herself. for me if that's the case.
To me General Chat means 'Chat about anything.' Not 'Chat about anything photographic.' That's not ambiguous at all; at least to me.JAK wrote:

Whoever it was that deleted AuraTodd's thread with a plea for help and advice, you should be ashamed of yourself.
She clearly has few friends from whom she can draw comfort, but she counts us among them.
I hope you receive the same treatment as and when you ask anyone for help.
Do you have any idea the trauma you could be putting her through now? I doubt it.
She may not even have had time to read the sensible advice in the replies. You could.should have left it a bit longer at least.
Whoever you are, I'm disgusted and this might just be the straw that I need.

(Yes, the thread was archived by Google as Algernon pointed out.)
Sorry for your troubles Aura.
Can't really see the point.

In the photo in post #3 above, it's the Stereo Adapter that's needed to shoot the pair (the lower of the two items), the slide viewer is above it in that photo.
Note that the results are basically two half frame images side by side so it works best with vertical subjects (portrait format as opposed to landscape.)
It really needs part of the subject reasonably close or the 3D effect is lost.

I have used this Anaglyph Maker program:

reasonably successfully with the Pentax adapter and the 35mm lens.
Worth a try if interested as it's free!
The slide viewer, of course, is only really useful if photos are shot on slide film.

Also your link to your website on your profile page goes direct to a company website selling a service that has nothing to do with this forum, so throwing stones in glass houses springs to mindMight one not expect a forum member to post something, anything, elsewhere in the forum at some point?

Don't let it load the lot, just select the ones you want! If you have a program that tries to load everything (some do by default) turn off that function in the program. Same applies to both CDs and DVDs.

If you're used to Pentax DSLRs, the menu system on the MX-1 is very similar - the options are where you've got used to. Using another make compact can get you guessing where the options you want are, which doesn't help the creative process. Performance wise? No grumbles unless an optical viewfinder is essential (and note there is no hot shoe to add one to the camera like one can on the Q.)
