It's worth noting that links in signatures are not encouraged, but you can put your link as your website address in your profile.
I'm not quite sure where you're going wrong, but if you drop me a PM with more specific details I'll look at it with you and see if we can sort it out.

The same fine Pentax handling of colour remains in all the models from the *istD to the K-5.

I haven't passed any comment so far, but the support for RAW capture in IMHO over-stated. Premium Quality JPEG images from the Pentax cameras are not particularly compressed and are of very fine quality. It's not really someone else's interpretation of our images any more than any other setting is. We can adjust the JPEG capture to taste, just like we adjust the RAW capture to taste.
Adobe think we want 25% sharpening before we start, and I wonder how many RAW shooters turn that off? There are many RAW options, just as there are many JPEG options and it all takes a degree of skill to master. For those who are not quite sure what everything does, JPEG may well be the best option.
I use RAW capture now and again for specific reasons, but generally use JPEG as though it were colour slide film and it exceeds the performance of our eyes. The image content itself is more of an issue.

The correct way to complain that a post is inappropriate is by PM to a moderator or by the report system.

Many bags have gaping openings even when closed and theses are useless, even though quite expensive and well made in other ways.
