Thanks Dasha! Okay will keep it simple: Go to http://www.airtightinteractive.com/simpleviewer/ Check out the demos and download the free version. In CS3 go to File / Scripts / Simple Viewer. Choose a folder to source your pics (you can use high res here). Choose a folder to put your newly...

Thanks Dash! On the website? Simpleviewer. It runs a script out of Photoshop CS3 - really easy (and when I say it's easy it must be!). When the page is open you should see a SimpleViewer logo in the bottom right hand corner - I think it does it when you right click over a photo too. It will...

When I first stayed in Nusa Dua and walked the tidal flats I was gobsmacked at the number of starfish - you could easily count a hundred in a couple of hours of walking the flats! Perth doesn't have anything to rival that! I was trying to find out the species of this seemingly common starfish...

I didn't end up getting "the shot" this trip. :( Might try again in Feb...

Thanks for that Ronb - would love to see some more pics in a few weeks when it's clear what they're doing! :)

Great info Sanurian! Thanks! I had heard of BARC and had emailed Linda to get some information but that poor lady is so flat out that she's still working at 1.00am!

LOL! Sounds like great fun! Where do I buy?!!! ;oP

Wow that looks like it's going to be huge! And a fantastic event to put Indonesian athletes on the map!

ABG Roy? Is that the premises currently being built next to Discovery Mall?

It was a very bizarre sight on Kuta a few weeks ago with those giant pipes and earthmoving equipment mixed in with the sunbathers and surfers! Hubby and I thought they might be using the pipes to create a high tide barrier... Anybody know what's going on there? Cheers Gabby

Geez Shaz - that's pretty full-on! How on earth did you get it in Townsville? It's not supposed to be an Aussie mozzie! Looking back I'm surprised that just the kids got it - we were all in the same hotel room together. But this time I took aeroguard with us and bought fly spray when we got...

Thanks mimpimanis - I hope I can do the dogs of Bali justice! Great link Roy (now saved) - much appreciated! On our visit to Bali last year, we took the kids (at the time 11 and 12yo). Both of them came down with Dengue Fever. Nice long incubation period - long enough for them to enjoy the...

I would like to thank everyone for their participation in this thread. It's been a huge learning experience for me and one that I really appreciate - it will also greatly help me with my project. If anyone has any other information they might like to share - the kind of thing outsiders might...

Thanks Thorsten! That's really interesting! I will have to do some more research!

It seems a child was bitten by a rabid dog in Java which caused a bit of a panic and they tried to get rid of all the dogs but you're right, Drbruce, they weren't able to eradicate all the dogs - there is plenty of newsy type stuff about it on the net. Although rabies is viral it seems the...

Ummm I appreciate that emotions can run high on arguable topics like this one but I would really appreciate any more anecdotes that people might like to share! :D In a post further back in this thread I mentioned that Java had tried to eradicate all it's dogs and it was inferred that Bali had...

I already sponsor a child through World Vision Jimbo, have done for many years. We each choose our own battles and projects!

My little project is really only "a pimple on the universe's ass" too but I figure every little bit helps. Perhaps Roy's stand will create a butterfly effect that will one day see no more dog sacrifices. I think we each have to follow our hearts and do our own little bit. :)

Hi tintin. The whole subject has definitely challenged my beliefs, my tolerance and my understanding. The thread mimpimas referred me to provided insight into a lot of things I hadn't considered and everyone of them was relevant. But as I said before - who am I to judge? As a photographer I...

Hi Mimpimanis - thanks heaps for the link. A very interesting read indeed! And an excellent insight into not just Balinese culture, but other cultures as well. It seems to me a bit hard to point fingers when I know how the chicken in my dinner was "raised". Who am I to judge? While I've...
