OK, fine. You win. I'll answer the question as it would just be too cruel to toy with you and hold out for much longer.

Yes, Paul, selling members area content offline is a great revenue stream. Hopefully Shap has been able to pry himself away from this stupid fucking thread, but if he's still inexplicably stuck here with the rest of us, maybe you should ask him about Twistys Members Only DVDs.

Does this mean that you actually take pride in being wrong?

What is Picture Bank? And what advertising companies? I worked at J. Walter Thompson before moving to Zenith focuse solely on media planning/negotiating. I also interned at DDB right here in your hood (Prague not Staines). Pretty good companies for someone with my low level of thinking, but admittedly not nearly as prestigious as Astralmotherfuckingblue.

One guy is not everyone but the reasoning for advising 'one guy' to not mention wedding photography services on his art and architectural photography website was because of the generally negative perception it would have amongst everyone. Or at least pretty much everyone except for you. Sorry if I confused you.

Yes getting a camera to work right is easy, knowing how to get a model to work right is much harder.
OK, i've never been on a set, so I just want to ask one question. You do what you do to set up the camera and get it to work right and you also set up the lighting and all the other technical things. The model gets there, you have a chat, show off your world class people skills, make her comfortable, try get a vibe going and what not, and just make sure that everything model related is set up to work right. My question is that after the camera is set up to work right and after the model appears as if she will work right, how do you make sure that the photographer's brain is working right? Or is that something that can be overlooked?
