The new logos are in place.

If you're not seeing them yet, it's because you're running through a poxy proxy server, or you're using a cached version which won't release the old one.

Please feel free to ditch IE for Firefox, but in any event, pressing F5 should work to refresh your browser any which way you choose.

For those in the south eastern states: enjoy winter. We'll probably see another coupld of days of this weather, and that'll be it. Make the most of it while you can.

Very nice indeed Gary! I have used Firefox for a while now :). Now all I want today is my 17-55DX lens! Then it would be PERRRRRRFECT!!

What's the hold up then?

Are customs waiting on documentation from your OS supplier?

Nice work on the site Gents

Gary,

Very nice, simple & effective.

What about point & shoot, what about this, what about that. I don't like the design :roll: :roll: :roll:

I'm surprised not to see more comments along these lines

Wait for em, and enjoy a long stiff scotch.
