The only thing about the site that irks me is that little doggie in the lower righthand corner of my gallery page - the photo.net mascot -- more than one person has asked me about the dog thinking I took the shot... and their clicking on it takes them away from my stuff. annoying. ann -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

Godfrey, All good points, but some of us have neither the time nor the inclination to learn this stuff.

I pay the annual dues. In fact, I'm payed up for about five years. I like photo.net for a number of reasons. It's certainly an easy way to maintain a decent looking portfolio page with a minimum of effort. Paul -- Original message -- From: David J Brooks [EMAIL PROTECTED] Just wondering.

Of course photo.net can be used as a portfolio. It even provides a means for contact. I have a domain name (pnstenquist.com) assigned to my photo.net page. -- Original message -- From: Godfrey DiGiorgi [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Jul 27, 2006, at 10:07 AM, Rick Womer wrote: Godfrey, All good points, but some of us have neither the time nor the inclination to learn this stuff.

You should use your .Mac account for those things, since you already have the service and it is perfectly capable for that intent. Access to it is built into Mac OS X, and there's also an application provided by Apple that would allow you access to it from your Windows system.
