There seems to be a trend here where dgriners post multiple threads on the same topic. For example one member has created a new thread for every city he visited in Australia. Why not keep your entire Austrailia trip in one thread? There's plenty of room to keep adding new posts in the original thread. Same thing goes for the 6 posts in 3 days of another dgriners trip to Morrocao. Each post containing 2 or 3 photos all of the posts covering the same subject matter.
It's obnoxious almost to the point of the critiques being given in the whipping post by a dgriner whose only posted 3 pics of his own work, all of them mediocre at best (I'm trying to be kind). I swear this member has delivered his criticism to every thread in the whipping post. Now I realize opinions are like ass___ and everyone has one, that advice is worht less thanyou paid for it, etc etc...but some common sense could go a long way with both of these issues.

The Journeys Forum is PERFECT for this. Why the beef? The poster, has done a nice job, posting threads about different areas within Australia. Oz is a big continent - worthy of MANY threads imo. Your beef against this poster is unfounded, and kinda rude imo. He's contributing to our forum If you don't like it, don't view the threads.
The issue stems from the fact that most threads are rarely viewed once they drop off of page 1. Therefore posting multiple threads covering the same ground one after the other is in my opinion rude to the rest of the community. Is the Australian series more effective as 10 different threads rather than an ongoing saga in one thread? I don't think so. I do however feel that hording real estate on page 1 when coveing a single topic is selfish especially when there is no limit to the number of pics you can post in a single thread.

Please please please edit the "for" out of my title for this thread. My grammatical error is driving me insane (ok, truth be told it's driving me more insane or is it insaner?).

did you try right clicking...oh wait they can't do that either.
At least you could stay current, if you're going to be giving us grief. You know, get your facts right!

What's the problem? J ourneys, is for "story" posts, typically - Antonio hasn't told a story along with those pics that I can see.
Can we move on now

Yeah, they've worked WITH two button mice for years and years, and they've been shipping with them for years. Keep up!
They come with two button mice with a scroll wheel that scrolls horizontally, as well.
