I've had few book sale outside of normal stock sites. In my my experience the sale will only be confirmed when the book has actually been published. It's far from unknown for a book to be pulled just before publication, hence they never pay/confirm until after the publication date. Paul

Thanks for the find guys.... It's DYA4R4 by Paul Williams I could take issue with the article though!

No, your'e not. Look on the bright side though, by the time this thread burns out a bit all the hard work of finding out how the new system works will be nicely distilled down for those not on the system yet.......keep up the good work guys! :-)

Yes, I do use it on a site I'd nearly forgotten about here -> arthebrides.com . This particular website has been a 'work in progress' for several years where not much progress has been made :-) I do however get the odd sale from it even though it has never been promoted. Photocrati does seem to work well but like most wordpress plugins it suffers from being a little awkward to alter if you want to customise pages. It has however always been one of the better photography orientated templates and has been around a long time. I'm currently musing on integrating this site with the POD

Yes, only in the USA so far. I connected through an encrypted proxy service in New York and found all the images come up with a 'print' button. Time for me to start adding restrictions I'm afraid...... Paul

Microsoft will update your system to Windows 10 whether you like it or not unless you are proactive preventing it from doing so or are using a corporate WSUS system to filter updates. I’m not going to go in to the pro’s and con’s of updating or not doing so. But should you wish to prevent Windows 10 from installing you have a couple of options. Firstly there is GWX Control Panel from http://ultimateoutsider.com/downloads/ , and Never10 from https://www.grc.com/never10.htm , both of these will work well. Paul

Places tongue firmly in cheek and says – It just means that down the line Alamy will get a really good offer for the company that they can’t refuse.

I’m ambivalent toward all operating systems, this comes as a result of working with most of them for years. The things that have vexed me about Widows 10 are; MS trying to foist it on me by fair means or foul, the amount of commercially useful information about me that they want sent to them via the default OS settings and the so far undeclared intent for an ‘adobe like’ charging model for various aspects of the OS further down the line. Anyway, I digress, those folks who want to avoid the ‘upgrade’ to Windows 10 may want to take a look at this article from The Register that highlights
