Ken, You nailed it. After all, we've got to keep good security around the place! Bill

Colin, Thanks for your kind comments. The colors this year are particularly good so there is lots to photograph! Kind regards, Bill

Maureen, Another stunning presentation. You are a master of not only photography but also in your choice of composition and execution of your many fine presentations. Thank you once again for sharing your talents with us. Bill

Daniel's show can be found here: Classy chassis. Regards, Bill

Patrick, Very kind of you. Thank you for your gracious comments. You have certainly help us all to experience very high quality PTE presentations. I look forward to your next one !! Regards, Bill

Colin, I'll be waiting for your material. You certainly have some great ones !!!! Bill

In an effort to help spread the word about new PTE slide-shows and also aid authors who do not always post on the forum, you can now subscribe to receive automatic notification of new PTE presentations posted on Beechbrook.Com. Referring to the attached image, you can subscribe on any of the PTE Download pages and unsubscribe at anytime via the email notices you will receive. Enjoy, Bill

George, I simply couldn't resist. I just returned from San Francisco. Here is an image of what the corner of Haight Ashbury (sp corrected) looks like today. Ice Cream anyone ?? Regards, Bill

Mikep In my experience, hardware has more to do with transmission speeds and performance than does the amount of 'stuff' that our servers can hold. In addition, the number of 'hops' between servers from point A to point B will definitely effect transmission speeds. In any case... I say just keep those PTE presentations coming, whomever hosts them. I know I certainly enjoy the creativity, subject matter and excellence in photography in so many of them!! The forum has some truly powerhouse members with regards to photographic skills and AV creativity, as well as knowledge in voice-over, image management with presentations, and most importantly a true willingness to share all that knowledge with the rest of us. All the best, Bill

Mickp, When downloading presentations from Beechbrook, keep in mind that many of those shows are actually located (or linked) from servers scattered across the globe. Not just hosted on my site. Therefore actual download speeds and times can vary greatly. And all of us know that the speed of a download is only as fast as the "slowest connection" along the way. Best regards, Bill

Mary, MediaFire can be a pain sometimes. I certainly agree with you on that. I decided some time ago not to accept uploads that were linked to MediaFire because very often the links are changed without any notice. And I don't allow advertising (which is on MediaFire) on my site as well. It does provide an option for many though. But Beechbrook is also here for those that wish hosting elsewhere. Bill

Direct link to The Grand Tour. Great to see it again !! Regards, Bill

I would be happy to host it once again if the author would resend it. Long gone since 2005 !.

Direct link to Pax Aeterna. Regards, Bill

Daniel, Certainly a beautiful show. Great photography throughout. Nice choice of music. Well done Daniel ! Regards, Bill

Very nice tribute to Robert and his flowers. Thanks Jim. Here's a direct link to Jim's show: Begonias. Regards, Bill

Direct link to Jim's show: Scottish Castles Regards, Bill

Ken, Good to see some of your creative talents at work. Thanks for sharing your skills. Quite a production you've made there. We'll throughout and well executed. Good stuff! Regards, Bill

Eric, Beechbrook is not a commercial website nor do I share email addresses. Obviously someone could capture your email address and use it elsewhere. That is always a possibility. You have control over which email address you choose to post on my site. Ken's comment is correct. It is intended as a method of sharing personal comments with the presentation's author, as well as keeping some authenticity to the upload process. If you find that Beechbrook could be a suitable place to host or link your shows from, please use it. Otherwise, we'll still continue to enjoy your shows from whomever host them for you. Best regards, Bill

Eric, Sorry that you feel Beechbrook is a complicated system to use. It is really very straight forward. There are even help files (with pictures) describing each field where data can be entered. Also... I'm here anytime you need me to assist you with an issue. Simply email me and I'll come online and help you out. I've attached a copy of the help file for your review.

Maureen, Yet another triumph. Spectacular photography with very appropriate music. This time your 'art for photography' could clearly be seen with several of your images. Great colors and shapes. Peaceful as well!! Bill

Yes Ken, you are correct. Since I downloaded the file, I would have it. But I certainly wouldn't automatically place it on my site without Eric's permission. After all, he is the one that placed it on MediaFire and not my site. It would be his decision. Anyway...you got the file, that's whats important!! Bill

Well Ken, if Eric upoads the file to me, I'll be more than happy to host it. However he currently only has it on Mediafire and I do not support them on Beechbrook as a hosting site. Too unreliable.

Downloaded and ran perfectly for me Eric from your original post. Very soothing and peaceful. Thanks for sharing ! Regards, Bill
