Keith, I humbly disagree... I mean, you're quite right in logics of your reasoning... However, many people, like it's been pointed out already, use non-pentax lenses on Pentax bodies... Say, the month's topic would be "Macro"... I have Tamron macro lens, and very fine macro lens at that... Your suggestion would disqualify me on the spot... Or, say I wanted to submit a wide angle view... My wide angle lens is Sigma 18/3.5 - very fine optic for its price. Again - I am out...I am sure I am not the only one with this kind of problem. I honestly and humbly think that the way PUG is now is fine, except that perhaps we could allow for slightly bigger files, say no more than 150 kb in size and no more than 800 pixels on the long side... And I do admit of being guilty of not posting to recent PUGs *sigh*. -- Boris
