    Your son was having you on - anyone can see it's a cosmonaut rather than an astronaut - the green balalaika gives it away.

    By the way, thanks for the Galoot Update on Sister Ob'dwella

    You're obsolete already, Tim! Never mind, SSDs are not beautiful to look at...

    Lol, ah yes Martin, but all my music is on a 1.5TB mechanical drive, my SSD just has the O/S and JRiver software

    (and they are dull to look at, as you say)

    My Avatar is an oil painting I did in 1977 while at Hartlepool College of Art in the UK. It’s title is “Images”
    The idea is that each of the geometric shapes represents a person - they come in all shapes and sizes. Each person sees the sunset in their own unique way and it will trigger feelings and “Images” specific to their personal memories. So the blocks, acting like prisms, reflect these variations to the viewer.

    I thought it was kind of apt to use this picture. We all have our own taste in music and in its reproduction, No two people will hear a piece in quite the same way and it will have personal meaning for them, so there are similarities.

    I have other paintings on my website if you are interested.

    Indeed, nice bit of artwork. Any chance of reproducing it here in a larger size for us to admire?

    Never tried inserting a picture into a post before but here goes!
    It did not work, here it is as an attachment.
    Can someone tell me how you get the picture to come up full size in the text, as per the blow by blow tutorial frankyc2003 did on his PSU mods?
    The FAQ section did not help.

    Can someone put my avatar on garrardmatters on here. I can,t do it myself and it driving me mad. I'm using a tablet and it's proving difficult.

    I cannot do it on the laptop either.
