    Flickr Help.

    Not trying to teach anyone to suck eggs so to speak but why "Flickr" which is essentially a site for sharing pictures. For a bit more privacy you could try "Dropbox" which still allows you to send links to the files.

    Self Portrait Challenge

    Critique Homeless

    Really liking these especially the first. FWIW overall I think the B&W works really well with the subject matter (even if there is an element of designer gear in it!) Speaking of homeless people in designer gear - if you look around you'll be amazed how many so called "homeless" seem to be...

    HDD Passwords

    If its the BIOS password the easiest way to reset it is to pull the CMOS battery - you'll need to open the case though but as its an older laptop I'm guessing its out of warranty anyways - leave it a few minutes then put battery back in and all should be sorted.

    Is this a crime?

    Sorry to disagree - but if he takes out the contact with the intent of defaulting to sell the phones it is already criminal - been a while since I did English Law but I'm sure it could be classed as Attempted Fraud Criminal attempt - any person who commits an act which is more than preparatory...

    Software choice?

    I'd say one of the main differences is that Lightroom is more about cataloguing and workflow than actually editing images. Elements is more like a baby version of Photoshop and more suited to image manipulation. If you are new to both and don't have either then I would be more tempted to go...

    My first camera was....

    Eyes closed, where to focus?
