Eskimo's what? Dog? Wife? Polar bear? And before anybody chimes in I know I have posted a message
somewhere tonight with an "i't's" in it.
:-(

Anyway the PC word is Inuit. :)

|

Thanks for that Bill! :) You should have a go, especially as you can change your lenses to get
closer to it etc.

Seeing as we are all turning to digital - I can't do much lens changing really.

Getting back to film though, I can manage 600mm at a push! But who wants to wait that long to see
the results :-[

Sorry, I meant to say "...like selling ice to the Eskimo's Polar Bear!" ;-)

Oh no, not political correctness, I hate that stuff! :) I thought I'd did my bit by writing
"salesman/woman" above! :)

Okay, I'm just itching to see what you've came up with. It all sounds very intriguing! I've noticed
some websites have clickable maps, so you could possible have a map of wales with mountains on or
something.

My site, when it's finished, will be like every other photography site...

Gwyn - I can see there's one waiting to come down from you, but at the moment I can't receive it.

It would be easier to have a friends list and anybody else filtered for delete
unless they use a specific subject.

Oh dear, I didn't get that one either, sorry Bill.

I think I know what happened. You sent it to Ste and me,
yes? I've got a rule to delete emails not addressed
specifically to me, so if you addressed it to Ste and CC'd
it to me my rule probably killed it. And then would have
added you to the blacklist so your second email would have
been deleted before I even saw it (I did check the list
today but didn't see anything from you). I've altered my
rules and settings now so hopefully that won't happen again.

A third time please?

Paul

Trouble is I trashed my friends list the other day when I
deleted my mega-gigantic black list (which was causing the
program to take ages to load and occasionally crash, and
refused to open the options within the program because it
was so big) so it will take a little while to reconstruct,
and I have so many potential friends to put in the list
anyway that would be a huge task if I did it manually, so I
prefer to just mark them as friends as the emails come in.

As for filtering all those who don't use a specific subject,
I get a lot of emails from strangers so I really don't want
to do that.

I've got a rule that says if I am in the CC then the
email is legit.

If you can get Outlook to export a list of addresses just
paste them in at the bottom below [Whitelisted emails] in

C:\Windows\Application Data\Mailwasher\Blacklist.txt

I can see that would be a problem.

O.K. I've sent an "enlarged" version so I'll send the
original for comparison.

I went out at about 2pm last night to photograph the moon,
as it was making a lovely halo as it was shining through
the thin cloud cover. But guess what! As soon as I put the
camera on a tripod and aimed upwards, the cloud cover got
thicker and the moon disappeared into a dull glow.
Hmmm.... :-(
