Obviously you do not know what you have been saying.
According to the submission guidelines for open months, submissions shot with non
Pentax equipment were clearly welcome. Five participants in the September gallery
submitted pictures shot with non Pentax equipment.
This is what you said:
"If yer going to be submitting to the gallery, why on earth would ya submit photo's
taken with other brand equipment?
Oh. yeah. I forgot. Ego. Look, there's lots o' places where you can submit yer
photos that are not brand related. Photo Critique is one. Satisfy your personal
egos there. Give us a link and we'll all go "ooooh" and "Aaaah". "

No, because you singled out the non Pentax shooting participants of the gallery and
sarcastically implied that they somehow were showing off or satisfying their egos, as
opposed to the Pentax shooters.
That's what I found insulting.

You continue to do the same, and let me state my opinion about bulls*t posted to the
list.
