Yeup. New guy here, obligatory first post.

Hello world, my name is Marc Hankins, I've been a sales rep in a busy camera store for over a year and a half and now I'm in the middle of starting to run my own freelance business after leaving said store.

I've played with practically every Sigma lens known to man, and the majority of Canon and Nikon lenses and bodies. Good stuff.

My site, if you're kind enough to check it out is www.marchankins.com

I'll be on here looking for advanced techniques and technical details, as well as business techniques. While I can give back advice on the vast majority of lenses / most bodies.

Anyway, time for me to rock out and check the rest of these hallowed pages.

Hi Marc

Welcome, I've had a look at your website and loved your style, looks like you'll certainly bring some fun..... loved the one of the guy with what looks like beer foam spilling all over him! I think I spied Buachille Etive Mor at the head of Glen Etive, one of my favourite spots in Scotland.

Anyway time to do some work, look forward to seeing more of your work.

Hi Mark, and welcome to OPF.

I've looked and your site - I like the design, simple and fun. However, there are a couple of problems.

1) When I click on some images I get a pop up window. The popup stays blank and the main window becomes white and displays the message "[object Window]". Note that I'm using Firefox.

2) After the "Events" title I see the error message "
Warning: getimagesize(): Read error! in /web/marchankins/gallery.php on line 27".

Regards,

Tim

Hi Marc,

Thanks for sharing you pictures. The abstract showed well. The black and white screw up showing anything else once the first image is loaded. Any picture selected gives the same result, that first B&W image, which BTW comes out very dark.

Is there a way to get the images to load faster in the background so on does bot have to wait between images?

Also do you have the ability to add "next" "previous" and "home" arrows?

Asher
