Celebrating 20 years with photo.net

I never thought this site would last this long. I mostly hang out in the Medium Format area but since I'm a Pentax shooter, I do visit here on occasion.

Hi Steve,

 

I was just surprised with a new laptop for Fathers day and first place I came was here. I have been or was coming here since 2006 when I set aside my K1000 for Digital. I have not been around because I couldnt find a computer that suited my needs ( basically storing and viewing pictures). I was just telling a friend today that I was kicking myself for not paying for membership years ago and getting one of those little film cans next to my name.

 

I dont think it was because I didnt think it would last, my contributions were limited.

 

I see we were both wrong.

 

anyway, nice shot. my wife and daughter did good with the graphics card and storage....now I'm going to have a few months of loading pictures....lol

It may have lasted this long but I don't see it lasting much longer. Since the introduction recently of the new unusable interface I stopped using it and I would guess from the lack of familiar names it seems most others have too. All eye candy and not much else.

Well, I got here in 2006, hope we will survive.

Agree that the traffic on this site has slowed over the years. I think the face lift that they gave it recently was an attempt to modernize and regain the traffic of old.
