Guest guru Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 A well known guy is becoming a real danger to our forum. Al Robinson (aka Alrobin) just reached his 1000th post! We must stop him all together!But I wish to express to Al all my sincere gratitude for what he has done, and is doing for all of us. Great thanks from me, Al, and from all members of PTE forum!Hurray for Al !!! Quote
Gérard de Lux Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 I fully agree ! It's shameful that people are allowed to inundate such a respectable forum as this !................................................................But I'm very happy that the honour of having 1000 posts goes to Al who really does a wonderful job promoting PTE and helping the users !And thanks to you, Guru-Guido for having brought this important event to our attention Quote
ContaxMan Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 Congratulations on reaching 100 in such good shape. Quote
Ian R White Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 Al, if you find the time to read this in your busy schedule providing ideas and help, thank you for your contributions - they have so often changed my PTE output from OK to something I am proud of.Here's to your 2,000th posting! Quote
Maureen Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 Congratulations and Many Thanks Al for all your help and support.Hope you are celebrating..............we'll also help you......... by celebrating here in UK ! Love from EnglandMaureen Quote
JRR Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Al:Congrats and thanks for all your help (a good amount of which does not appear as posts so you may well be at 2000 already !!)Of course your PTE Adjustor and Tutorial 101 count for another 1000 posts each.The work you do behind the scenes with the design team should count another 1000.So that would make how many posts ??????Where would we be without you Sir ???

quietstorm Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 HmmmmYou guys did not leave me a word or two to express my feelings to Al!! Ditto...to you sir and may the next 1000th posts be even betterand exciting not only to us, but to you as well!Keep up the good workBart Quote
LumenLux Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 And to think Al - I can remember when you were just a babe in this forum.Congratulations! Onward and funward! Quote
alrobin Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Thanks so much to all of you for such kind words! I really have to thank Igor, though, for pulling the old forum down, a little over a year ago, and starting the count from zero again. Otherwise, I would never have passed Guido or Bob or Bart, or Ken, or a few others like them, who have been so active on the Forum much longer than I. It's been a real pleasure, though, and a chance to "meet" so many wonderful, interesting people. To celebrate the occasion, I went out a couple of weeks ago and bought my first digital camera (a Nikon D70). Now, in future, I will feel even more qualified to answer digital questions and contribute even more to this great Forum and in the promotion of such a teriffic slide-show program!!! Quote
boxig Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Al,It is very important for each program forum to have someone like you who can answer questions in so many fields and help new members who sometimes feel lost. I'm visiting the forum daily and many times I've learnt new things from your and others replies. And all the rest was said above by other members.Thank you AlGranot Quote
alrobin Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Granot,Thanks so much for your kind words. You have been an inspiration to me, too, with all the work you have done on behalf of the Forum, and you would have even more posts than I had it had not been for Igor's "resetting the clock", so to speak. Your perseverence in developing new utilities and special programs for solving Forum members' problems is amazing, and you and other long-standing members have done much to further the development and enjoyment of this amazing AV software, "Pictures to Exe".I'm looking forward to another year of participation with you and Bob and Ken and Guido and others, too numerous to mention, in promoting the enjoyment of photography through AV. It's a great hobby!! :-)))))))) Quote
quickflicks Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Well Al every thing has already been sayd.Just want to join in that birthday party. and countingNorbert Quote
ronwil Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Words fail me. Thanks Al for all your help on and off Forum, including your sequences on Beechbrook and your e-mails.Ron [uK] Quote
Alan Lyons Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Hi all, I'll join in the comments congradulating Al on the 1000 I'm sure there will be +++++ there by now. But to go back to the orignal heading of this string. "Stop this man" Al will be in dublin in June and we have arranged to meet. By the time the Irish are finished with him he should be very quiet for a long time Alan Quote
alrobin Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Thanks again, everyone, for your kind wishes! Alan, you mean I may have to kiss the Blarney Stone before I come home? Looking forward to meeting you! Quote
Alan Lyons Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Al, find out what the Blarney stone really is. If you can't find out I will tell you what it is after you've kissed it. the boys in blarney will not let you into the secret. alan Quote
dadou Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Congratulations !I cannot say more, but I can read your interisting interventions!Thank you !daniel (F) Quote
ronwil Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 I've actually kissed the Blarney Stone, with a photo to prove it, so can you believe anything that I have to say. Except my thanks once again to Al of course.Ron [uK] Quote
scapel Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Al, find out what the Blarney stone really is. If you can't find out I will tell you what it is after you've kissed it. the boys in blarney will not let you into the secret. alan Alan,I am scheduled to visit the Blarney area in Sept. I don't think I will kiss the stone unless I know the answer first. Quote
Alan Lyons Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 Suffice to say at this point, that a person who talks a lot but makes no sense, is said in polite circles to be talking through his hat. In rougher talk, he uses another area, and this is what was originally pointed at the Blarney Stone. Alan Quote
alrobin Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 Sounds like a lot of "bal-arney" to me! Quote
The oldie Posted April 20, 2004 Report Posted April 20, 2004 I've been a fan of Alrobin since I first looked at the forum......At the risk of you being bored with all the adulation Al ! Many Many Thanks for all your splendid offerings. Alan in UK Quote
Bubba Posted April 21, 2004 Report Posted April 21, 2004 My 2 cents: Thank you Al for all your help and expertise. As some would say in slang, "You the man!"Bubba Quote
