Damn, this is going to drive me nuts! A few of them look familiar but I can't remember who submitted them. Good photos though.

Hi guys,
I log on and discover this topic - already 6 pages long!!!
I take photos and i post photos because i enjoy photography and really enjoy letting others know about great places to climb. I am not a fine artist - i am more a cataloger of areas. All my photos are linked to the area database and are designed to show what to expect at an area. I want to use rc.com servers as an online guide to encourge and educate climbers from around the world what we have in Australia (and NZ). I do not post series of photos of a particular climb. I choose the best picture and only post the single photo. I want the Victorian section of the database to be clean and informative. I don't want to see 20 pics of the one climb!! My photos are not just of sport climbing in the Grampians. I have highly rated pics of mountaineering, big walls, trad and bouldering - from all over the globe!
Every day i get personal messages asking about travel tips for climbing in Australia - so obviously some people find my photos useful and entertaining.
I do not profit from my photos on rc.com - in fact i loose heaps of money because magazines will not except photos already published on the net! I am so impatient i always post my pics the second i get them back from the lab.
So Alex - that pic of the blurry portaledge shot @ baffin island must have REALLY pissed you off then?
Neil!

Finally OrangeOverhang is among us!
This thread is so lame. LOL! Surely one of the best times I have had at this site in a long time. Oh and BTW, what the hell does Pensylvania have to do with anything??? Oh bless me, I forgot that someone let Tucsonalex back onto a computer. Peace out, I am done here. :D

Hey? Where that one guy go who started this whole thing? Now's his chance... He can talk to that other guy he was mad at and all. Should have been resolved in a civil manner, ie. PM's between the two gentlemen. If I have a problem with, say, Coldclimb (which I don't), I'd send him a PM explaining why I'm perturbed. I wouldn't air my dirty laundry out to dry in front of the rest of the RC.com community. But I guess it makes for some dirty reading if youre into that kind of stuff. It's like a buhcn of Jr. high kids gathering around to watch a fight but in this case, it was just one kid calling another kid names and when the other kid showed up completely unaware of what was going on, the first kid seems to be nowhere to be found... Hmmmm...

STFU, My car can beat up your car. It may seem like I just post all day but sometimes I do actually get work done.

Depemds what you like, we have a bit of everything. Tucson bouldering is somewhat lacking but there's plenty to satisfy sport weenies like myself and crusty traddies as well.

Green Slabs or Prison Camp on Mt Lemmon are good areas for that. There are plenty of moderate routes that can either be led or toproped. Check outhttp://www.climbaz.com for route descriptions.

I agree w/ drkodos as well, I'm trying to plan a study abroad in AU just because of those sweet pics! If it works out, I def know who to talk to!
Thanks double-O! I'm inspired.

It' sreally nice outside - you should all be outside climbing instead of sitting on your asses posting dumb crap about someone's photos. ( which are not bad photos for their purpose )
GO OUTSIDE AND CLIMB.........! Quit whining!
