Forum rules:
1) Before posting on the forums, read these rules:
http://www.futureplc.com/futurenet/t...nd-conditions/
2) Don't quote the entire message that you're responding to, only the pertinent passage.
3) Use proper English, do not use 'txt tlk'. Do NOT post messages all in caps.
4) The forum is not an "online chat room" for irrelevant postings – it is for photography related subjects and should be used as such. Please use software specifically designed for this purpose, i.e. MSN Messenger, ICQ, Skype etc.
5) Please post your message to the appropriate forum thread.
6) Do not post for sale messages.
7) Don't post just to increase your post count.
8 ) Members are not permitted to harass or "flame" other members. Please note that this also includes the posting of taunts on a forum solely for the purpose of deriding that forum's topic and/or members.
9) Do not "bump" your topics back to the top of the forum boards. This is not fair on other users.
10) The forum has a search facility, please use it as chances are that your topic has been posted before.
11) Make your topic title descriptive. Do not use titles like "HEEELLLPPP PPPLEEASE!!!!" as these topics are often overlooked, and may well be deleted.
12) Please be considerate when posting long links. If it is going to create a horizontal scroll bar, shorten the link. Mods who find oversized links that create horizontal scrollbars will delete your post.
13) The size of signatures should be kept to a minimum (two or three lines), the advertising of items for sale is NOT allowed in the signature, this includes Ebay. Make sure your signature won't be mistaken for being part of your post.
14) Do not create multiple accounts.
15) Do not post other people's personal information on here, without their express permission (posted by them on the forum). This includes, but is not limited to, e-mail addresses, phone numbers and postal addresses.
Summary: Behave nicely. If doing it in 'the real world' would be frowned upon, don't do it here.
