Tut, tut. The photos individually are mostly pretty good. I'm glad that we (or at least I) now know that they were intended for the band and your other friends, which explains the large number of them. That makes perfect sense to me, especially if part of the reason is so the band can choose from a number of them for their own uses. Might not have been a bad idea to mention that in the initial post. Then you wouldn't have idiots like me wondering aloud why there seems to be some repetition (which repetition makes perfect sense now). <vbg> One day they'll make it big, and your photos will be on their CD covers, and we'll all be proud. <LOL>. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
