Tom C here... Thinks are getting a little mixed up. I was suggesting a different forum for the PUG *if* it was not going to be a showcase the best photos type of affair. In other words, have a photo sharing site that is not euphemistically called a 'gallery'. John seems to be suggesting a different forum regardless... but one that is somehow judged to maintain a lquality level. >Points in reply... > >1) Putting up a PAW or PESO is, for me, more work than submitting >to PUG.
