Now we just have to convince Ziggy to get involved and this place will be complete.

Now this is another way that RWG in its new incarnation can be better than ever. A little less time on who has the best sub and a little more time on more thoughtful subjects. By the way, who does have the best sub? Just kidding. I do.

You are right that it can't be casted. Neither is the the gen as it has white gold markers on the SS bezel.

The PVD looks fabulous. A few of us are waiting for Palpatine to re-emerge with our "black love." I did hear from him a few days ago and he is slowly climbing out of the cloud of his personal loss. Although, selfishly speaking, I can't wait for my 028, more importantly I can't wait for him to show up here renewed as his old vibrant self. By the way, this was not the "Black love" we referred to in High School but it is pretty damned good.

That's fairly humorous. We get to welcome you here. It's been great to see folks gradually migrate over the last day or two. It looks like we are rapidily developing a revitalized new core. To you, Ken, and all the others who have been instrumental in this website - I give great thanks. I am convinced that we will end up with a far better version of RWG.

I would say TTK. His pictures are amazing. My goals are fairly modest. First, simple crisp overall pictures with no reflection (I can't do that with my current camera). Then focus on details. After that I will get creative with background. What started me on this is that I know very little and my wrist check pictures always stink. Oh, and I do need to upgrade my camera for vacation.

I would take your Freak over that every day of the week. Hey, has the fiancee figured out what your habit costs yet?

Wow. That is the definition of PAMaholics. What Sushi has to do with it I have no idea.

I forgot to add that with all the time we spend generating pictures for this forum I am hoping this will be pinned somewhere.

Yeah, but, make no mistake, that is half the fun. The joke is my excuse for the purchase is taking the family on vacation. I don't get tagged by the wife for "dumping more money into reps". And she just figured out how much I have spent in the last 12 months.

Guys- This is fantastic. You have no idea how much I appreciate this. A member at the predecessor forum had been kind enough to send me the software but I had no idea how to get started,

Wow, that panasonic looks like the Leica I used to own many years ago. I presume it is thousands of dollars though.

Drizznay- Great to see you on the other side. It is going to be fun.

High school reunions. The football star is now pumping gas. The cool guy ain't so cool anymore. The girl you always lusted for in high school and wouldn't give you the time of day ain't so pretty anymore and is married to some loser. I love high school reunions.

Hi Steve- Great to see you on the other side.

Great to see you. Could you please reverse the spelling again.

Aah, another familiar face.

Look at the bright side. We are all newbie posters. Looking forward to seeing you around.

Try a mai tai.

Gents - Thanks for the suggestions. TTK- Which Minolta? You take fabulous pictures. Narikaa- Point taken. Lousy photographer will generate lousy pictures irrespective of camera. In my case, I have not previously owned a digital slr (Nikon point and shoot currently). I have never tried to develop photo skills so it may well be a waste of money. But my thinking is that as long as I am going to go to the trouble to learn all about the features I would just assume start with the system that people have had good experiences with. I have a number of nice reps and would like to be able to take pictures commensurate with my pride and investment. Finepics- Thanks for the insight.

Never look back,

Jetmid is ever present.

This is loony. I don't see anything.

Well, at least he is not Mugda.

Hey, you guys are playing with us "have-nots." They look fantastic though. Did they actually come with interchangeable bezels or did you acquire them elsewhere?
