Re: New Look Forum

Well done Admin - I think you've cracked it with the "Shopsmith" style. I hadn't visited for a week or so & had been using that Silver style. This new look is good! :cool: I look forward to you solving the old post picture positioning issue and I'm confident you will - given what you'v...

Re: New Look Forum

Found the same issue when using the iPhone. No pictures & scaling is wrong until logged in. It may be the same thing that idcook reported. Before logging in on both PC & phone the screen looked really bad but after logging in the screen is much better. Different, very different, but not bad....

Re: New Look Forum

Maybe just my browser (Firefox) but photographs didn't show until I had logged in. Does this mean my days of anonymous browsing / skulking in the shadows are over? :eek: This message appears at the foot of each post when not logged in: "You do not have the required permissions to view the files...

Mr Mac is spot on - you won't go wrong with any of those. I've long since given up being surprised by the quality my wife gets from her little Canon. Best bet is draw up a short list and take a look at them in your local camera store. Pick the one that you feel comfortable with. (But if you do that ...
