Don't be too sure about that Mick. She emailed me about five minutes after I posted her response to me pointing out that I shouldn't copy her email 'to another site as in Future's small print it forbids that'.

Keeping up with opposition I think, or just paranoia. ::)

If she sent you a email to your private email address, then that is outside the PR website therefore, T&C on PR wouldn't apply.  ;D

Most commerical emails state those terms at the bottom, but it's never been tested in court.  ;D

Um, OK, 2 things.

1. Like a lot of things this is probably my fault.  I happened to mention on Twitter that I was bemused by PR's attitude to an established photographer's exhibition.  No names and certainly no links but a guilty conscience could have easily made somebody come here looking for the story.  Sorry.

2. Those disclaimers on e-mails are, I have it on good authority, total bollocks.  Claiming T&Cs is even more ridiculous.  If I send you a letter then I'm pretty sure you are at liberty to put it on a noticeboard outside your house for people to see.  That's exactly what this is.  But electronically.  The internet is pretty much about free speech.

I'm still totally bemused by their attitude and their increasing desperation to keep things hidden.  I guess it's their site and they can do what they want with it.

BTW, Hi Amy - how are things?
It's Guest's round

No apologies needed Jonathan. I was just a little peeved at their attitude and wanted to stamp my foot a bit.
Thanks for the comments on the B+W announcement Sue and Oldboy you rascals ;D

Absolutely.  It's their loss IMO ;) 

By the way Alan, I've added the info to the news ticker, and the calendar for the 31st of October.

Now that's what I call an administrator (take note Amy).

Thanks for that Mick, much appreciated. :tup:

Saddened by this mean-spirited approach, but like most others I am not much surprised. Their loss, I think.

They need rubbing up the wrong way!  >:(

As I suspected, after several days I get the standard response after admitting I still have the disk. Delete the printer profile and use the disk to reinstall everything. Why do they assume because you're asking a question you are a complete moron. And still, no one has actually provided an answer to the question I asked. Why no " sorry we really don't know"?
And more, much more than this, I did it my way

Why do some people, when building their own website, refer to themselves in the third person?

Well perhaps it's her :o

By the way we've just added a new gallery on our website, we thought you might like to see a few IR's. To paraphrase that bloke on the Fast Show, 'This week I R mostly bin doing IR's.  :legit:

Didn't get round to booking my train ticket to London till last night - and the 6am advanced ticket wasn't available - so I tried to book the 6:20 to be told there were no seats! So I've had to get the 5:40!

Which reminds me I must go!

Surely there are rules on H&S, our place is the opposite health & safety rules the place along with following ISO standards, actual production is irrelevant as long as all the paperwork is in order. One of our guys was seen doing an "unsafe act" the other day & it was hinted that our supervision was not up to scratch - 2 of us supervising 20+ blokes on 3 different shift patterns 24-7????
As much much as it is for our benefit I still think it is more driven by fear of US style law suits.
