For the benefit of everyone who does not know or forgot, there is an [All Sections] link at the very bottom of each page. It will take you to the sections directory where you can choose to check out anything, provided you're a member and signed in.

I just checked that out. If I counted correctly there are over 50 sections to pick from.

We should pick one that is seldom used and repurpose it as the argument section. Our main sections could then be used for real discussions about photography.

For those who simply respond constantly without adding anything worthwhile we could give them one of the unused sections. We could name it, 'I love Myself'.

Or, maybe just a "Me To" section for those who tend to agree to everything, off topic or not.

It's getting late, nothing good on TV so I decided to turn it off and peruse UHH. Even bad TV is often better than UHH.

I made these comments in jest. When I reread them they were ... you decide.

Nite All!

Are you definitely pressing the OK button to confirm format, not just the centre button in the menu control. ( Done that myself).

WE HAVE A WINNER!

Congrats to Patrick

No one here speaks for "we" You speak for yourself unless you took a survey of all participants. On a forum when one claims "we" it generally means they actually think they speak for everyone, which is seldom/never the case on a public forum unless you define "we" up front. In this case, I don't think Rick, or anyone for that matter should leave.

He speaks for almost everybody. Just look at the number of posts he responds to.

He does no harm that I have noticed, not much good either.

I always hope that he will eventually post pictures, but not sure if he ever owned a camera.

I wonder what the attitude would be toward anyone who took that stance regarding spelling and grammar. If all the grammar, spelling, and syntax mistakes were pointed out, how long would it take for the "grammar nazi" recriminations to start?

There was a time here it seemed a few of them were trying to make it happen. They didn't last.

If BS means what I think it does (IT DOES) then you are 100% correct

I agree, why post a photo if you don't want comments?
Label it a snapshot and move on.

This section is for posting pictures you took. If you want to ask others to comment on your choice of subjects, composition, settings, show off your pictures to others, or ask for general critique, then please do so in the Photo Gallery section.

But if you need help with a specific issue, then please post in the Photo Analysis section.

Maybe there is a difference between pictures and photos

Linda was pointing out what the Photo Gallery was intended to be. It is easy to understand if you read the rules that were set up either by the owner of the sight, or with his approval.

Obviously this is not a good fit for you. I hope you find a site that suits you, or maybe you could start your own. No need to respond.

Good Luck,
Be Well

I know this doesn't answer your query but I never remove cards from any of my cameras. I've heard a few stories of others having issues by removing them.
I always use the USB cable that came with the camera, much quicker and no risks.
Cheers,
Ron.

I've been using various cards in various cameras since the D1x came out in 2001. Any day I use cards they are pulled from the camera(s) and replaced with other cards that immediately get formatted.

I believe it is mostly a matter of chance, and of course using care. I still have a 4 gig microdrive that will work in my D4s. I use it once in a while to make sure it works, and view my Alaska pictures on the small rear screen.

It's too bad none of us have had the problem the OP has. One of us might have been able to help.

Apparently you never read the rules for the Photo Gallery.

Photo Gallery Section

This section is for posting pictures you took. If you want to ask others to comment on your choice of subjects, composition, settings, show off your pictures to others, or ask for general critique, then please do so in the Photo Gallery section.

In other words, if someone wants your opinion about their photo they should ask for it.

You can add a line to your signature that says "Advice Welcome"
