    It's good enough to see what you need to. Cough up the cash if you want a clean picture, I guess.

    I like this one: nice sense of motion and dynamic balance.

    Well, mainly because all other pics, everywhere, seem to be viewable without dumbass logos all over the place?

    What's the point in linking to a set of unviewable photos, huh? Why not just call that link an advert for buying pics?

    I admit the logos are too big, but i'm sure after some feedback he may make them smaller. But the fact is, that there needs to be some sort of logo across them to stop people getting freebies.

    I'd just say fade the logo so it's there, but you can see the picture through it.

    I went to look at the pictures, but in the "thumbnail" view you can't see who's in the picture, and I don't feel like wading through all 259 pictures one by one. What ever happened to the slideshow option?

    No.
    There doesn't.
    All you need to do is to provide low-res versions as tasters, and then wait for people to buy the hi-res ones.

    Hell, you could even do hi-res versions and you'd still get orders.

    This whole DRM "protectionism is good" rubbish is exactly the same feeble argument music (and now film) companies have been using for the past decade. They're wrong, and so is this.

    The only result of screwing up the photos this way is that less people will be interested in viewing them and hence in buying them. What sort of a business deliberately degrades the stuff it's trying to sell? A dumb business, that's what.

    I didn't mind paying £5 for a pic of me that was up on the board at Camber, but i would also like to have it in an electronic format as well. This new larger logo has stopped this.

    See, that's the sort of constructive, reasonable and positive action which really annoys me...

    How can we carry on ranting if people are going to listen to us? What's the point?

    Very true. Putting a huge logo across it is a bit like a burly security guard following you around any time you step into a shop - yes I'm just looking..I will pay if I want something thank you...please stop following me...right I'm off to another shop...

    its always a bit harsh when you're assumed to be a thief first almost as annoying as web sites that do not allow you to right click....bah

    Re: Pics and Ceroc logos

    I don't know WHY I am in a good mood today, but I am, so suggest that now we have given some constructive feedback, we don't expect this set of photos to change. Please bear in mind that it takes hours and hours for Alec to sort thru' photos (for the two good ones of me he posted I'm sure there were several mingin' ones which have fortunately bitten the dust) - and do the logo thing.

    Me, I ain't gonna whinge unless Alec fails to change it for the next lot he uploads

    EDIT: phew, just in time: the current ones will not be changed, waiting for clarification on whether the logo can be made less opaque for future event photos.

    What's wrong with putting a small reference or a logo in the bottom left hand corner, suc as appear on all his other galleries? Are these hideous large central logos imposed by a higher power.....?
