Another for FireFTP. used cute and ws_FTP for years but i love the simplicity of fireFTP - does exactly what i need with no fuss and no bother. and totally integrated with the tabs in firefox.

Got an ok shot of it over the houses.

I got the feeling they weren't after real talent - but people with "interest" Thats the problem with a lot of these "talent" programs, it doesn't matter how good you are, its how good you are at getting "noticed". In this case your photo's may have been superb but unless it jumped off the page...

it doesnt come with a memory card but does come with 16mb of internal memory. really cheap cards can be found at www.7dayshop.com
