The site looks really nice, especially if you just go to http://farktography.net/ The one issue I have is there doesnt seem to be a link back to this page anywhere on the site and I really like how this page looks and all the information that you get on it. I only found that page because I decided to try the old site address to see if any changes had been made for the public to see before coming to the forum and finding out that you guys have already done a lot of redesigning. But overall Id have you say youve done quite a good job on the site.

Heres one shot that I was considering using for the second on all fours contest but it had a lot of dust and a scratch or 2 on it when I scanned it in and I didnt feel like going through the effort to clean it up.

Elsinore, Ill see your one silly sign and raise you a second one.
Heres a woobley children warning sign that I found outside of Boston on a vacation probably 8 or so years ago.

And heres one of the stranger warning signs that Ive ever found when I was in Canada a couple of years ago.

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I got a lot of rain today so itll probably be a couple of days before I get to give it a try.

Alright, it says Im logged in so hopefully everything works this time. I also gave cinepaint a try but it kept crashing before I even had time to try anything in it so I gave up on it pretty quickly. I take it by you using the command line that you also use linux, which unfortunately cuts down on the number hdr programs?

I have to second claff here, by any old strong theme are you just saying that we could do something like submit 3 landscape or night shots?

Thanks for pushing back the autumn theme, the only fall-like shots that I have right now are some dead plants in the garden, but with the extra month or so I’ll have plenty of time for fall shots.

To your first question, I beleive you loose aperture size when you zoom in with an optical lense due to the changing of the focal length of the lense as you zoom in. I beleive larger, and more expensive, lenses will let you use a wider aperture when zoomed in because of the angles and physics required to zoom in.(If you want a more scientific explanation and noone else here can give one I can ask my brother for one thatll probably have all the science in it that you could possibly want)
As for the second question, the meter in your camera won’t always be right and sometimes you’ll get a better picture with an under or overexposure. I know my neighbor whos a better photographer than I am takes multiple shots of most things so that she can under and overexpose the shot to make sure she gets the best picture that she can.

Ive never used flickr before and I was wondering if this is something that I can use to host images that I post in farktography contests. I need to find something new for this sometime because Ill probably be losing my college webspace in the reasonably near future when they realize that I dont go there anymore and even more importantly that Im not sending them money any more.

Since Im heading out of town tomorrow I guess itll just be safer to go with Veruca. Would you like me to just post the links up here in the forum or should I email them to you?(I would have just posted them now but Im still deciding on my third picture) Thanks to everyone for the offers.
