Does anyone wonder, why some of the Regular contributers have stopped posting pictures on this site. Ed created a great site that, in my mind has moved towards the kind of crap that is on Firehouse.com or the Watch Desk. Most of the main critics are people that do not post photos, but yet always seem to have a negative comment about something. There are a lot of new members on this board, that seem to have not read the rules and regulations. People post, or repost pictures that do not belong to them, or post the same rig a page after it has already been posted.
Those of you that do not post pictures of your own must not understand that work that Steve goes through to set up these topics. He has to search through a large collection of slides and then match the information to the photos. He has to scan every slide, which we know takes time. Even those of us that shoot digital have to process them. And to top it all off, he has to worry about putting the wrong information, or use the wrong terminology.
Now I know that everyone enjoys their hobby in different ways, and we all have the right to our opinion. But i for one, am really bored with all the self described experts out there.
