from Daniel Bates the 16-year-old. That's right folks, no more! For the next six days, anyways...
Abel--you rock. Holding down a real job (ha!) while admin'ing the forum is a major task--but you make it look so easy. Can I get a round of applause for Abel?
The mod team deserves major kudos too for their (mostly unseen) work that keeps the forum running as smoothly as it does. We are all fortunate to have you guys keeping the forums clean... thank you all so much!
The wedding guys (and gals!)--you've all been extraordinarily patient with me, and I owe you all big time. Thanks for putting up with my incessant questions! It is truly an honor to know and work with y'all.
And Mike Fulton deserves a special thank-you; I've not had a model to practice my glamour beautifying PP techniques on in quite some time. Unfortunately even my skillz could only get it so far... sorry man, but this is the best I can do:
So... I want to thank each and every one of you for contributing to the forum and helping to make this place what it is--the best photography site south of, well, the North Pole!

This forum has seen a lot of growth in the short time I've been with it, and I have a feeling that this is only the beginning. Abel, are you checking for online deals on additional storage? Because you might need it... hehe!
