Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I need to get back working in the mines again to be able to afford 8x10 I reckon...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,319 ✭✭✭sineadw


    If you're serious, get a 5x4. You can always get an 8x10 back and bellows if you get fed up.

    actually one of the things I want to do is take 1:1 shots of peoples heads* and then contact print them. 8x10 doesn't cut it though, I need a bigger camera. And bigger paper. And larger development trays. And more chemicals. And and and. *sigh*

    *interestingly enough this makes them technically macro shots :D

    This might be a cheaper option :D
