[QUOTE="BlackLightning998, post: 2419, member: 109"] [b]Keep the Photo's available[/b] I vote for keeping the photo's available, I give the site address to a whole load of folks I meet up with who ask interesting questions and have had some great feedback from people who've looked - especially at the pictures. Speaking as someone who's loaded quite a few, I tend to get snap happy when I go to events, and not all of them are pure Vincent, and then post them in the hope that they may be of interest to people who were not able to attend. Fingers crossed there may be someone out there who is not as fortunate as me in terms of being mobile and able to ride, and might enjoy seeing pictures posted of events around the UK that they couldn't get to. I can't think of too many reasons that someone might wish to "steal" a picture to do bad things with (you can copy and paste one off e-bay if you were an ebay scammer), but then that may well be because my mind does not work that way. However, eventually the VOC will die unless it finds ways to attract a new membership, fact. I think that the Forum is one way to do that and three cheers for Graham, I just do not know how he does it, but it is a fabulous job and works for me 11 out of 10. I think it is one of the greatest innovations I can imagine in the recent history of the VOC which I find, on the whole, a very friendly and helpful place to be. Accessing photographs is just one more way, if people can see pictures of events that they can then go to, can see friendly faces at VOC events enjoying motorcyling and other things then it might just encourage one more person to join, and I think that it a good thing. And staying on membership for a second, if only we could find a way to let the Club Black Shadow contribute to converting people to the love and joy of owning a Vincent by letting people try it, and pushing membership numbers up, then that would be a good thing in my book. If someone comes on the site and doesn't like it, fine - don't come again. If someone wants to spend time airbrushing the watermark - fine, but if you email me I'll send you the picture anyway. Keep them open for people to see and enjoy, that's why I post them. Stuart [/QUOTE]
