They were all next door playing games on the AMCOG stand :lol:

Yea same here, drives me mad when web owners do things like that, you'll have to go all the way to the front page, then click through all the links to get to the right news article and photo, before you can finally click the photo to view it full size.
Been around I.T. since the Beeb was born, maybe you've seen me around :D

Unfortunately, Jim Nagel was ill. He sent out an e-mail just before the show to say that he'd gone down with a bug but also said that the latest issue would go in the post after the show.

In Firefox if you clicked on the link, just go up to the address bar, click on it to get input focus and press Enter - it will draw the image properly.

Or just clicking on the link & refresh might do the same.

Interesting.....

I wonder if that's a "feature" built into thier CMS then to discourage "deep linking".... (Sorry, I switched to web developer mode for a minute there...)
