If any are not suitable Ron would have let you know so maybe as James infers he has not got to them yet. Ron will pick this thread up later and no doubt let us know. But certainly looking forward to seeing what you have to offer. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Please remove the text and re-submit them and I will be happy to approve them shortly. Whilst writing, I'm sorry it's taken a while to get round to viewing them, but it's not the only job that I have as volunteer moderator to POE. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Dave John Posts: 22335 Joined: 27th Feb 2011 Location: England	quotePosted at 21:13 on 9th March 2013 Watermarking is all well and good but so easliy got round. If someone is gonna pinch the image they are gonna pinch it. Which is why it can best to only upload small file sizes cos if anyone pinches it for commercial use the quality will so crap it will be rejected by whoever they submit it to anyway. I'm afraid uploading to any site, POE is no exception, is a risk the photographer has to take. But if you say Barry's submissions are good I'm well looking forward to seeing them My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
