We are both enthusiasts that have long been visiting TMA and that reckoned that such a project was long overdue and who were just lucky enough to have the time, the equipment, experience and enough loopiness to believe we could pull it off.

I hope this somewhat eases your discomfort at the nature of the SWS posting at least. For what it's worth, both Rupert and I are keen to be around as contributors and to answer questions that the film may provoke.

I'm not sure anyone else has any problem with the way you and Rupert have contributed so far, Michael! Going by the responses on this thread, Tomwatts seems to be a lone voice on the issue. Perhaps he was joking.

Like you I was a regular visitor to TMA before I became active on the forum (and in posting sites, photos, fieldnotes etc). Perhaps Tomwatts is the same, too. I've certainly only noticed his name on the forum fairly recently, tho I could be wrong. I can't see him on the 'Contributors' list.

As far as I'm concerned (& I get the impression, most others) you & Rupert are more than welcome, and many of us seem extremely glad you brought your DVD to our attention, and made it in the first place.

Too true. This place is fantastic and it's amazing how many contributors have built websites and published books. And that includes internationally known experts. It's the obvious place for anyone in this game to share what they've done.

Thank you Moth - appreciated. I have a tendency to over-explain and I do not have any sense that we have been made anything other than welcome. However, it is true that using forum posts to 'sell' stuff can be a slippery slope and some forums have an outright embargo on such postings. I am sensitive to the reasons for that and I just wanted to reassure TomWatts and anyone else that had the same thought.
