Pictures by numbers

Having been absent for a while from POE I have taken time to have a good gander at comments on the forum, and after reading this one and "less is more" I submitted for approval a small amount of pics, and have taken time to give short historical and general blurb on them, it has taken me a full day to choose which photos and captions and information, check for mistakes and edit, all I can say is, you certainly do a sterling job Ron,Chris and Sarah  As for the quality of the photos, in my case typical Scottish weather, lack of light and grey'd out skies (it's the only excuse I can think of right now) I have tried to enhance some but it seems to be a thankless task. Sometimes our weather just doesn't want to play.  I have recently had another new camera and am still learning how to use the various settings, so please be kind and bear with me, I am waiting for the perfect blue skies to come before I take any with that one and post them, looks like it could be a long wait.

We had a similar discussion on this point on another thread

recently & I also suggested a daily upload limit of 6 I think

& a maximum of 50 if no donation is made. Very selfish for a few

to upload lots of images & do nothing to help keep the site going .

I agree too . Daily limit between 5 and 10 pictures 

seems to me the best 

I raised this old chestnut again, I suppose partly out of frustration at looking at the new images submitted to POE and being treated to endless images that really should have been pruned down before being sent to the site. I will now not raise this issue again as I realize that the owners of POE have a huge job to do and very well they do it too. I would hate to be confronted, like them with huge batches of pictures which would require far more time by them to edit / reject than it took the owners of the pictures to rather selfishly “bang them off down the line”.  

I love this site, warts and all.      

Frustration now vented.

And a final cheers to you Ron. You are truly doing a great job.
