| Clikpic website: How do I change this bit? Hi Merl,
I've downloaded your website, its in the CSS file, I think you need to alter/delete the "div id="headertop" You might have to ask Clickpic or try the idea suggested by Kris. I've uploaded a screen print for you to see as well Gallery Image Cheers Iainlink |

| Martin Parr Copied & pasted from Martin Parr's PF on the Magnum website
Between 2002 and 2007, Martin Parr photographed ‘the last parking space’ available in 41 countries – somewhere you could have parked your car, had you been there at the time. Using a compact camera, and driven by wanting to express “the individual frustration of finding somewhere to park, but on a global level”, this is the latest body of work in Martin’s methodical personal address to the issues of globalisation – the desire for a precious parking space being a banal unifier of the middle classes the world over. Countries featured in Parking Spaces are Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Egypt, France, Georgia, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Lebanon, Luxembourg, Mexico, Morocco, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, USA and Uruguay. Parr’s concept for the book Parking Spaces is to present it in the manner of a wedding album – white and terribly precious, as befits the value of the last parking space. Love it or hate it, his idea works very well, click |

| Martin Parr For me, its a merciless documentary of everyday life, usually over detailed & that there is always more out there than meets the eye.

| Portfolio Help Hello Tom,
I would go to Staples, Office World etc & have a look at the portfolio binders they have for sale, as for images, minimum of 5 & a maximum of 10. I think your stakeboarding images are quite strong & I would use them rather than using a variety of different images. Have you tried drawing some of your stakeboarding images ? they don't have to be exact copies, just use artistic licence I hope this gives you some idea's & good luck Iain |

| Can I block it? .htaccess file is for apache web servers, Merl your website is using Microsoft-IIS/6.0, if you google using the phrase IIS Equivalent of .htaccess you'll find lots of answers & discussions, but as far as stumbledupon is concerned, just ride it out, there'll be gone in a couple of days, it happens to my photoblog quite often

| Curbar edge There is a large map in the car park with all the paths on & if the weather is ok it can be quite busy, you might struggle to park on a sunday afternoon.

| Blah! Zzzzzz feeling uninspired need ideas Hi Helena,
Quote: I mean, you can't just shove a camera in the face of a stranger, can you?? of course you can, its only a camera In any busy city, you will be hardly noticed, wrap the camera strap around your wrist, put the camera in manual everything, take a exposure reading of the pavement/sidewalk, preset your focus & away you go, if somebody does notice you, don't acknowledge them, just ignore them, only ask permission if you want to do street portraiture. A good idea at first is to photograph everything & anything to build up your confidence, then relax & photograph whatever catches your eye. Good hunting Iain |
15 | 03/08/2007 - 9:54 AM By User_Removed | |
| Any chemicals advice please :) I use Fotospeed dev & fix, the good thing about their dev is that it has all the popular B&W films on the back label with the times,temperature & dilution ratio, also the company are very quick to deliver.

As far as I am aware there is no reason why you can't take a more southerly route, but if you go through Manchester you have to pre arrange it. Cheers Iain |

| Dog licence Hi Ian (Westers)
Why don't you buy a training lead, one end goes around the dogs muzzle & then you can control where the dogs head is ? Just a thought |

| Macro + zoom together?? Hi Becky,
Just go to your back garden, a field or any open space, make yourself comfortable & wait, they will come to you, if you scare them off stay where you are because some species will fly around in a circle & land in the same spot, try & practice on spiders, they stay still longer |

| Server Problems? Hi Ian,
Try this go to START then RUN & type CMD a command window will open, then type C:\>tracert www.ephotozine.com This will trace the route to EPZ, if there are any network problems this will time out. The example below is mine, as you can see I am on NTL, at line 9 it leaves NTL to go onto another network to reach EPZ, if it failed between lines 1 to 9 then I would suspect NTL's network was failing. The best thing to do is try this when its working, if you right click the command window select all then CTRL C to copy the contents to notepad & save it. If it fails try it again & compare the two, the route might not be the same but it should quite close & it will give an idea where it is failing Hope this helps Regards Iain C:\>tracert www.ephotozine.com Tracing route to www.ephotozine.com [216.22.50.138] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 17 ms 16 ms 11 ms 10.21.80.1 2 71 ms 51 ms 52 ms oldh-t2cam1-b-ge-wan43-117.inet.ntl.com [80.5.16 4.197] 3 22 ms 10 ms 9 ms manc-t3core-1b-ge-111-0.inet.ntl.com [213.104.24 2.205] 4 24 ms 10 ms 13 ms man-bb-b-so-400-0.inet.ntl.com [213.105.242.245] 5 12 ms 14 ms 12 ms bir-bb-a-so-000-0.inet.ntl.com [62.253.185.133] 6 18 ms 14 ms 17 ms bir-bb-b-ae0-0.inet.ntl.com [62.253.185.154] 7 16 ms 16 ms 18 ms nth-bb-a-so-300-0.inet.ntl.com [62.253.185.105] 8 27 ms 29 ms 34 ms fran-ic-1-as0-0.inet.ntl.com [213.105.174.86] 9 27 ms 27 ms 31 ms cr02.frf02.pccwbtn.net [80.81.192.50] 10 128 ms 135 ms 128 ms pos5-1.cr02.vna01.pccwbtn.net [63.216.0.26] 11 120 ms 122 ms 125 ms g6-0.br1.iad2.servint.net [63.218.97.138] 12 127 ms 125 ms 123 ms so-1-1-0.br1.iad1.servint.net [209.50.254.246] 13 140 ms 131 ms 130 ms magezinepublishing.com [216.22.50.138] Trace complete.
