My experience with PPG is that, at the beginning, I was impressed by almost enery image that I found there. Now I click on links to PPG at the footers of Pentax forums entries and, well...I am not that impressed with what I see.
I admit though that a site like this must be difficult to properly 'control' without devoting a lot of resources, that I am not sure that Pentax has.
