The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

I seriously need a new digital camera.  My existing one is a sony 20megapixil.  It's great and everything, and it was REALLY expensive, but it takes like 60mb-250mb images.  I have to spend 5 minutes shrinking the size of every image in paint to post it, otherwise it takes an hour to upload to photobucket.  I'm looking at a 5mp tops.  Which brand is best?  Price is not an issue for me.  I just don't wanna have to spend so much time with each image just to be able to use it.  I don't know why I even got the 20mp in the first place.  Probably my mom's idea. :lol

My parents have this.  They love it.  I've tried it and save for really dark settings, it works really great and you don't need to touchup photos all that often. :)  Its also three years old so maybe there's something newer, but that's my recommendation.

10X optical zoom.  Cool!  I'm gonna get one off ebay.  It's huge though...

Well yeah unless you want one of those flimsy thin things.  :P:  I'd rather something that feels like its going to last.
