That gets rid of 95% of the slides.

    Originally got the scanner to do 6x7 negs I was shooting.

    Did any of you guys ever try wet scanning? I thought of doing so but so far have not got round to it. Apparently the results
    can be amazing.

    I see ebay have been tinkering again.

    My ebay summary page on which I have items I may be interested in, was set to show the list in 'ending soonest' mode. Now it gives me 'most relevant' and won't let me set it back permanently. I have to change it each time I visit the page. Bloody annoying and pointless too.

    I missed a couple of purchases because of this, as I'd not noticed what they'd done immediately.

    Yes. I've been through the preferences settings and there's no solution.

    Hmm. Wonder if it's a browser issue? I'll have to check.

    Mine seems OK too.

    I have just had some strange things with latest update of Maxthon, fortunately, I use Firefox, Pale Moon and Chrome more that Maxthon.
