Ok! Since I have seen a lot of people asking questions about cameras, lenses and photography in general so I thought I might as well post some useful links to sites where you guys may will find some very useful information or answers about photography. Anyone is welcome to post any relevant and useful links in here.

Hah! I was actually gonna look waaaaaaaaay down deep into the photography forum, but I was really tired and decided to go.

Basically the donor forums are like blogs / general chat, but without ANY spam, and you can have actual conversations with people, mods, trusted, you name it. It's a mature forum, hehe. Somewhat - all depends. You can also buy real things with FG in there.

You know you really shouldn't talk about tiredness with me now tongue.gif oh lord I've been working constantly since yesterday and only had 5 hour sleep but its worth it though because I need a camera as soon as it's possible and I could probably sell my soul for that lol
holy crap! That sounds awesome, almost like in the heaven. kinda makes me regret for have giving all my stuff away - lol just kidding. So it's almost like in the photography forum but with a lot more people and a lot more topics and so on? hmm you know if I MAY will pay 50 bucks in the future to get access to that forum smile.gif

Maybe I want to. I think the photography is a clean and good place. We can talk about everything without being banned/warned or our topcs get closed.

Just to let ya know, you don't always get granted access to the donor forums. There are people in there that got it within their first donation, which was 25 dollars. And another guy had donated 90 bucks and he wasn't in yet. haha.

have you asked them why? it just seems so unfair. Could it be that they have or have got one or more warns? oh well as I said I MAY will try to get in there in the future right now I have to save every penny I've got for a camera. By the way I found a camera store here in Regina, think its called Don's photo or whatever - lol and their prices are quite reasonable with some stuff being even cheaper than "the camera store". Well not the lens you want to buy though.
