A minor improvement to the look of the forum, I have removed the "Comment on this image" hyperlink under photos posted to threads and made the image itself the link to comments and full EXIF, so just click on the image itself to go there.

In its place I have now displayed the basic image data of camera, f/ number, speed and ISO, which makes it much easier to get a feel for the settings.

Here is an example of the new layout which will be effective for NEW images uploaded, old images retain the previous links as they are loaded at the time the post is made, not when it is viewed.

Good move Chris.
I think it improves the look of posts.

Thanks for you work.

Thanks for the thanks - appreciated!

It only took about three days to work out how to extract the image name from the javascript of the editor and send that to the server to be processed, returned and displayed .... then I had fun getting EXIF data out of the wierd fractions the camera manufacturers use and translate it into human format - ie speed of 10/5000 becomes 1/500 - I hope I have caught all the possible variations but there may be the odd glitch turn up :lol:

Shame that the PHP read_exif_data function does not pick up the lens data - other readers do, I will see if I can harness one of them.

I have now changed the EXIF function to one that gives a lot more detail - including shutter count.

So the images now get lens specs as well.

Eric - see my response on the thread - the D3 stores ISO differently - I have reloaded after fixing code to catch the ISO data - now shows correctly.

JK - I need to add Manufacturer info for Fuji!

I bet you are really glad you started this, Chris?


Sorry for all the jumbled data. Doesn’t help if I keep changing cameras AND manufacturers.:no:

Hope it happens soon for you.
House buying/selling in UK can be a nightmare as solicitors seem to lack any sense of urgency.

Tell me about it!

The daughter of a close friend has bought a house and has been waiting for the key to move in for a week. Frustrated by the lack of involvement from the solicitor, she flew at the mortgage provider ( the solicitor claimed they were holding things up)

The mortgage lender sent her a copy of the last email from her solicitor which clearly states “…there’s no urgency on this…”.

She’s a bit of a Norfolk terrier so I expect the solicitors bill to be challenged and not paid with any “urgency”.


What’s the old joke…..

”What do call a group of 6 solicitors chained together on the sea bed?”

“ A good start”

When we sold my father’s house they made several oversights holding things up. 
We came to the conclusion that, like accountants, they were using junior/part qualified people to rough things out ready for a senior stamp of approval. 
Simple things fell through the cracks and the juniors parked things half done waiting for the boss to tick the work. 
At least that’s what it seemed like.
For example, the purchaser was wanting to sign……the solicitor told me they were “waiting for the purchaser to sign”.
When I spoke to the unaware purchaser, he dragged his wife out of her sick bed and drove to the solicitors office to sign. 
Proactivity and sense or urgency seem lacking when there’s a meter running.

Never noticed this before…but not important! 

Ive just done some folder management in my Gallery, moving photos to appropriately themed folders, thus emptying the default folder…..and all my recent additions have gone from the Most Recent Images window.
