Use common sense. If the url is not on flickr.com domain - don't open it. Can you post this link here? 2009/7/10 David J Brooks : > H all. > > Just found an email from Flickr saying one of my photos is on a short > list for a contest, and if i click a link, it will show me what photo > is on the s

Re: Looks like my red flower over saturation is not just a Pentax thing.

Have you applied camera profile in LR? After introducing this feature in 2.3, processing of over-saturated colors is much easier. You can always choose Adobe (default), Pentax 1.00 or Camera profile. (If you're processing RAWs from Pentax). Adobe is less accurate with colors. Pentax profile is "eye

Re: OT - Picasa Web Album, JAlbum, or Zenfolio?

I use Zenfolio for photo hosting. Honestly, next time I'd prefer Flickr. Zenfolio is a very small company, and developing of extra features is very slow. For example, they promised custom themes more than year ago... but still nothing changed. There is no integration plugins neither for Wordpress,

I use Acme Power NP-400 (labeled "7.4V 1500mAh For Minolta") They ran out of charge in about 500-600 shots, while original can produce up to 900. But the price was about 13$ :) P.S. Hello to all. It's my first letter to PDML :) 2009/6/16 Bob Sullivan : > Dave, > I've got 2 spares,used in the
