With all the current changes taking place, it occured to me that maybe it might be time to consider changing the site name from POE to Pictures Of Britain perhaps?  to reflect images uploaded by members from either Ireland, Wales or Scotland. If someone out there were looking to purchase images from these countries in particular ... they wouldn't think to look on a Pictures of England website I wouldn't of thought ? Any comments on that anyone ?

Maybe it was James .. but as we can see today that things do change & it would be a more accurate reflection on what the site is about which is not just images of England anymore?

I don't think it will happen either Martin, although I do follow your reasoning. As James infers it was considered some time ago and binned. And as Ron mentions quite regularly POE is one of the TOP websites for England and such I suspect it is fairly good brand name.

Yeah, you're right James, Dave weve been there before and you are correct about the 'brand name'.

Never say never though Martin.

I like POE, it's got a nice ring to it, POB hasn't. I understand your thinking though Martin.
