I'm not sure what Yahoo has to do with it either(?). As the unnamed person to whom you refer, I will respond. I would have sent Joaquin an email, but there was no link to do so. I still do not know how to contact him through the website. Oftentimes people here post URLs to sites that they have created and images they are newly offering. The comments here are constructive and helpful. When giving opinions, some of us want to help the individual display their offerings in the best possible light, thus the comments about the site design. When I feel that one could better show what they have to offer, I present my opinion. A person with the greatest images in the world with an unusable website will disappoint, and be disappointed. I offered to the site designer an opinion that a link that takes one to a confusing JavaScript (not Java) prompt, as opposed to a page with the link's description, would yield lost sales. The designer of the camera is not being well server by the designer of the site. Certainly, this is information that Joaquin would like to have, as it would be unfortunate to have such an interesting design not be successful due to a failure by a Webmaster. Joaquin did indeed contact me (thanks Joaquin), so I was able to get some information from him. However, my feeling is that people find it helpful to receive feedback on all aspects of their presentation. For those photographers out there who are working on their own websites, they can only be commended for their efforts, and thanked for sharing their vision. For those camera designers who are depending upon someone else to present their wares to the world, I have a much hasher view when I see that their webmaster's design is more about their design, and less about the camera's design.
