We’re all guilty of being a little too ‘to the point’ on the internet from time to time – I’m no stranger to that, but Steve hasn’t said anything whatsoever to deserve the post you directed at him. That was completely unfair. He simply made a small comment and still actually said nice photos.

I’m a total photo geek and it’s great to see people posting photos here so please continue to do so, but also think about practicing what you preach when talking about putting people off. I’m fairly sure had you directed a comment like that at a newbie member they’d have been pretty much instantly put off!

Actually Squeaky is a relative newcomer to the forum. She joined earlier this year and has 42 posts to your 5,114. In any event I am sure Steve is capable of answering for himself as he has already without spinning this out of all proportion.
