Good point about the slideshows. This is something I do on FM, viewing pic on slideshow....
The thing I get very annoyed with Pbase is that if I have say 100 good pictures of the same subject which I put in one gallery of approx 5 pages. People may miss those good ones on the last two pages. I find that I don't have the patience myself to go through 5 pages of pictures, no matter how good they are. And slideshow may solve the problem...
Chris, thanks for info about the smugsmug pro account

The selection of bags were very poor in HK, apparently, most of their lowepro stuff are sold out when i was there.
Guys who're selling the 17-85, i might have a freind who's interested in buying the lens. Approximately how much are u guys selling for? If he's really interested, i'll give u guys the contact detail.
Alex, I think Smelly wants a bit more than $500. $500 is only a starting price. Someone on ebay has paid about $9XX for this exact lens but with hood a while ago. Well, he bought it in HK, so I think he will let it go if costs covered. Is that true, Mr Smelly? (I am not his representative)
But if someone pays me the cost of this lens, I will sell mine (Not someone who has access to the HK market, I believe)
I'll ask my friend whether he's interested in the lens for his 350d. i think he's got the stock lens. Unfortunately, he's from HK and he used to work for a camera shop in town!?! He'll know what's a good deal!
I've never purchased anything expensive on ebay and i probably won't buy anything "electronic" from any ebay seller. I would rather pay more and get my warranty, especially when it comes to lens.
Although.... i might think about selling the 18-55 on ebay! :P
As Zane said, $500 is a starting price. It's not a "Buy it now" price. Man I hope it goes for more than $500 for something that's virtually brand new and if I don't get a good price, I'll keep it and find a really cheap cheap 300D and use it on that to give to my dad.
I'm asking $750.. that's the price in my mind.
Lowepro stuff are all made in China which I would have though it'd be so much cheaper. I'll have a look when I am in HK though my Timberland backpack is virtually full and no space for a body and 17-40 by the time I put in a 70-200IS, 100-400 and 28-75 plus other stuff. Also I have another bag inside to keep things tidy.
Richard, yes... unfortuately. I'm going to be in early that morning.
Re: 18-55: No, still with me. I will start selling everything in June 2005, keep an eye out
Re: Anzac Day: I will be out around 3.30am with Dicky and Ed. But you guys come whenever you want, just call me (0414 711 220) or Ed (0410 021 304) when you get there we will be hanging around the Martin Place area whole morning I think.
