Guys,
With regret I have decided to stop uploading pictures to the database.
A few days ago I was "demoted" from maximum upload size 1600 to 1024.
I find this demotion far too drastic for someone who has loads of pics of 1200+ pix pictures. Just because I uploaded one bad series from KMIA (contrast troubles) my maximum upload size was brought down to 1024.
It's the rules, I know this. The owners of the site are free to imply their own rules.
This does not mean the photographers cannot ventilate their personal views.
I think being degraded from 1600 to 1024 is too harsh, especially when you can only come to 1600 by uploading 1024s and get a good acceptation ratio. It's like removing Wayne Rooney from the Man Utd first team, put him in a youth team, and let him only return when he scores enough goals in a youth season.
I don't want to be treated as some newbie.
I wanted to delete all pics in queue, but I just now saw that there are only four left. I let them there. If rejected, I couldn't bother anymore.
I want to thank everybody for the great moments I had on this site, since 2008. Whenever I had questions, you guys were there when I needed you most.
A special thank goes out to Brian, who never hesitated to help me with all kinds of photography or processing problems.
I wish everyone all the best and good luck with spotting. Keep uploading those beautiful pictures, preferably in 1600 pix !
Goodbye, adieu, auf Wiedersehen, tot ziens,
Hinkelbein
