As a fairly recent member myself I would like to echo the congratulations of my fellow poster fans. However, I notice that MoPo is becoming more and more a site for those advertising their online wares (with the admirable exception of Tom M) and less a meaningful discussion forum. Is it that those who have been here a long time know more or less everything there is to know about movie posters?
