A promise ... is a promise ..... except for .....
Guys !! Don't jump on me ok ? ..... you know I will never ever upload to a.net for the reasons, I often discussed in here, except for .... when .... I need to do an experiment ..... :wink: ...... will tell you privately when we meet, what I have in mind, not here though ...... so, don't go ... HA !! .... if you see a pic from me in there ..... you will know its against my wish ..... but I need to settle a curiousity .....

Very intriguing Alan. My theory is it's been a while since you last insulted the a.net screeners and you'd like another go :D

hmmm im new here, but at least this puts my mind at rest that it wasnt just me getting crap from a.net.

I have the result .......... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: This photo was accepted (no disrespect to the photo or the photographer, as it is a good photo, and should have been accepted) http://www.airliners.net/photo/UK---Air/Panavia-Tornado-F3/1427970/L/&width=1024&height=708&sok=WHERE__%28country_%3D_%27Malta%27%29_&sort=_order_by_photo_id_DESC_&photo_nr=1&prev_id=&next_id=1427824 This photo http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6410462&nseq=8 ............................................. was rejected for .....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

It really amazes me. I would rather delete an image than upload it to a site that selects (not screen) photos of members from non-members. 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

I totally agree with you Alan. Your experiment did very well indeed. Not to kiss your a..se but your picture is wayy better!! Just keep up the good work.. you know we love your photos :P

In my opinion your photo is even better as we have a better close up of the aircraft...airliners.net suck

Guys, while passing our comments, on this subject and the clear result of the experiment, I would not wish any disrespect towards the accepted photo or the photographer. It is still a good photo and Peter is our freind too. The only thing I tried to show with this experiment is that if you are not a paid member in a.net, it is very difficult (if not impossible) to have your photos accepted, and not that other people's photos are less good.
