    My answer is absolutely sincere.

    One of them is the reviews - I counted 2 or 3 real contributions since I made them work in the new system. Yes, I know new members cannot post reviews, but what demotivates me is the lack of reviews from the old members with good experience as their reviews are typically of better quality.
    And as long as there is very little interest in contributing with the reasonably good system we already have in place, I have very little interest in improving that system. At this point such improvement is probably hundred times more time consuming than writing a review, so to me it's a matter of pretty simple math - I am not willing to just spend 100 times more effort than anybody else is willing to spend. When everybody's actions indicate that something has very little value, I view it the same way.

    BTW, something similar could happen with say the Wiki - if the SRP community can't find in itself the desire/ability to maintain and improve it, there shouldn't be a surprise when some day it just gets killed.

    Im sure it isnt easy to accomadate everyones requests,but I was totally sincere when I said that the old way of getting pictures from my computer to the fourem was easier,Im sorry if it went to the wrong page but when looking at the changes made that was the only thing I needed to address-I have no idea what other changes were made,but that one affected me so I reported it to you,I just couldnt tell where you were coming from with your answer. If you were being sincere then you have my apoliges,but I did like the old way better
    Thanks for all your work

    To be honest, I have a very nice camera--at least it was in the day. My lens are still great by today's standards. But reasonably priced point and shoots are capable of taking outstanding still life photographs. My wifes camera cost less than one of my lenses and it takes outstanding photographs in many situations. For sports or action shots, that's a different story.

    Get your composition and lighting (nice diffuse light, e.g., on a lightly cloudy day) and you don't need to spend big bucks on cameras anymore.

    I tried to log into the wiki, but cannot. That might have something to do with the lake [lack] of participation there.

    Very true. “I'd like to see a nature film where an eagle swoops down and pulls a fish out of a lake, and then maybe he's flying along, low to the ground, and the fish pulls a worm out of the ground. Now that's a documentary.”

    Thought this would be a good testing place:

    Yup, looks like it worked..... and no the Bismarck has no other significance other than I needed a pic of a razor to test with.....
