  1. Mmmm... looks very nice indeed Really love the shadow cast by the clock
  2. ....and no ETTL ....unless you spend a lot more for a pocket wizard! ....but then still cheaper than a 7D
  3. Why use photobucket when one of the member benefits is the ability to upload photos directly to the forum! When it works, its a lot easier to attach photos to your posts that it is to upload them to photobucket and post a link here! Another possibility is that you have filled your attachement space! Go to "My Controls" at the top and then on the left hand side under "Options" select the "Manage Your Attachments" option. You should see a scale display of your used attachment space. If its full, then delete some of your older attachments! If you still have available space, then I would suggest you log a support ticket!
  4. I used to get the same with my old Blobeye STI, all the kids would be tripping over themselves when you drive past! Now with the hatch..... its the adults that are looking
  5. Excellent choice, I'm sure you won't be disappointed
  6. AWD is a must for me for getting up snow covered alpine passes to my favourite ski resorts in the winter without having to faff around putting chains on!
  7. There is a maximum size of 2MB per upload, maybe the file is too large to upload! Try resizing and then uploading again!
  8. I'd be interested to know what sort of water temperatures you get up there and how much it varies with depth. I dive in a very big lake here, once you get to mid October it starts getting down to 4 degrees at 20m, with about 12 deg surface temp. At that point its pretty much impossible to dive semi-wet (full wet you can give up in September . Even in a dry suit, you have to be brave to go through the winter. Most people here carry a small Argon tank for inflating the dry suit to keep them a bit warmer! Was diving today and the lake is lovely and warm at the moment! 7 degrees at 25m!
  9. Nah, I'm a contractor... the longer it takes the better
  10. Still building a fighter jet ...while watching the F1 live timing and Rally Finland stage times
  11. Wouldn't be my first choice of colour, but I think I could live with it just to have the chance to own those cars!
  12. Black Scoob, Black Windows, Black wheels with a red rim = Hardcore Porn!
  13. Hmmm... cheers Stu, but not sure I like the yellow on silver! ....maybe I need some black wheels
  14. Brrrrrr.... that's going to be cold diving in Scotland I can't offer you any advice of where to go to learn up there, but as a diver myself I would definitely encourage you to do it! There are some great dive sites in Scotland and lots of interesting things to see so definitely go for it! I would recommend you get as many dives in as quickly as possible and as soon as you feel comfortable, then do a dry-suit course... unless of course you enjoy freezing your nads off!
  15. They look really good! I'm now wondering what a red stripe on silver wheels on a black car would look like
  16. Both the 7D and 50D are amazing cameras! The 7D is obviously a lot better than the 50D, but that's not to say the 50D is in any way bad. Both cameras will really benefit from high quality lenses though, so given a choice between a 50D and a top quality lens or the 7D with your existing lenses, then the 50D + lens would probably be the better choice. The difference in price between camera bodies is often just extra features or speed but rarely better quality pictures. The price difference in lenses is very much better image quality, with lenses, you really get what you pay for. I have the Canon 17-55 f/2.8 lens that John mentioned above and it's really an amazing piece of kit. Add that to a 50D and you will get much better results than with a 7D and your existing 18-55 kit lens. In fact you'd probably still get better result from your 350D and that lens! As for compatibility with your existing lenses, both bodies should have no problem. They are both APS-C (EF-S) bodies, so every lens should work fine. The Canon lenses will definitely be 100% compatible, the Sigma lens could potentially (although very unlikely) have a problem as they reverse engineer the Canon interface, but nearly all Sigma lenses can be re-flashed to make them compatible with newer bodies if you do have a problem. Its your choice what to go for, but IMHO the priority for investing your money in camera equipment would be better put towards lenses than bodies!
  17. In principle I agree, but team orders should only be applied when it really makes sense. Massa is not that far behind, so still had a shot at the championship himself - at least as much as Alonso has, but the real sad thing about this was it was the 1 year anniversary of Massa's accident; if there was one race he should have been allowed to win above Alonso, it was this one!
  18. Welcome to the forum Good luck breaking the car. If you join the club proper, then you'll be able to use the club for sale forums to help you get rid of some of the bits, otherwise you'll have to wait until you're an 'established user' before you can post for sale threads! Good look getting an RB5, I'm a previous owner myself and can only recommend them as one of the true great Impreza's of all time! Not many good examples about now though and even fewer un-modified! If you manage to find one, then please don't modify it - these cars are very special and should be left that way!
  19. I don't have an HDTV, so my HD box is just connected via SCART! SD only channels with no HD sub, so just like a Sky+ box really, but have the option to upgrade to HD in the future! You can still watch all the SD channels via the HDMI connector too. Most HDTV's will upscale the SD picture so you seem to get a better picture quality even with the SD channels.
  20. Not the simplest thing to do in the world, but there are apparently several ways... http://ipod.about.com/od/howtos/a/transfer_itunes.htm To be honest iTunes is the #1 reason I will never buy any apple products!
  21. I got a HD box but don't subscribe to HD package! You can still get BBC HD without subscription
